The ratio of boys to girls in a group is 2:1. If there are 26 more boys than girls, work out how
many boys are there?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  52 boys

==================================================

Explanation:

g = number of girls

g+26 = number of boys because there are 26 more compared to girls

The ratio of boys to girls is 2:1, meaning g+26 is twice as large compared to g

number of boys = 2*(number of girls)

g+26 = 2g

26 = 2g-g

26 = g

g = 26

There are 26 girls and g+26 = 26+26 = 52 boys. Note how 52 is double that of 26.

Answer:

x = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] - 4x + [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] = - 9x + [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Multiply through by 6 ( the LCM of 3, 2 and 6 ) to clear the fractions

4 - 24x + 21 = - 54x + 5 , that is

25 - 24x = - 54x + 5 ( add 54x to both sides )

25 + 30x = 5 ( subtract 25 from both sides )

30x = - 20 ( divide both sides by 30 )

x = [tex]\frac{-20}{30}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Answer:

3xy² -  14y²      

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope that this is the problem

   - x²y + [ - (x²y - 2xy² + y²) + (xy² - 3y² + x²y)] - (10y² - x²y)

= - x²y + [ - x²y + 2xy² - y² + xy² - 3y² + x²y] - 10y² + x²y

Now combine like terms in the [  ].

= - x²y  + [ -x²y + x²y + 2xy² + xy² - y² - 3y² ] - 10y² + x²y

= - x²y  + [ 0 + 3xy² - 4y²] - 10y² + x²y

= - x²y + 3xy² - 4y² -10y² + x²y                      Now combine like terms

=   (-x²y + x²y) + 3xy² + (-4y² - 10y²)

=       0 + 3xy² - 14y²

=  3xy² -  14y²       or    y²(3x - 14)

The University of Washington Huskies tried throwing one of the longest Hail Marys in history—about 73 yards! For this pass, the ball's height over time was modeled by the function h(t) = -16t2 + 64t + 6, where was the height in feet and was the time in seconds. a) How long does it take for the football to reach its maximum height? b) What is its maximum height? c) How long will the football be in the air? It takes a good college football player about 8 seconds to run 73 yards. If the quarterback waited 4 seconds after the snap, does the receiver have a chance of catching the ball?

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

h(t) = -16t² + 64t + 6

a)

The maximum height is the vertex. The x-coordinate of the vertex is -b/2a:

t = - 64/2*(-16) = 2

It takes 2 seconds

b)

Maximum height is at vertex:

h(2) = -16(2²)  + 64(2) + 6 = 70 yd

c)

The ball is in the air between zero's of the equation or approximately double the time it reaches the vertex:

2*2 = 4 seconds

The receiver doesn't have a chance to catch the ball, since the ball is only 4 seconds in the air.

Rotate the point (-3,-4) around the origin 180 degrees clockwise. State the image of the
point.

Answers

Answer:

(3,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are rules for rotations that make it really easy to find the images of any given point for any given rotation. In this case, we have an 180° clockwise rotation, and to find the image of any point rotated this way, we just have to make the x-values and y-values negative.

In this case, we have (-3,-4). Let's make each value negative: (-(-3), -(-4)). Our negative signs cancel out and we get (3,4). And that's the image of the point (-3,-4) at a 180° clockwise rotation about the origin.

Hopefully that's helpful! :)

The midpoint divides CD into two segments that are the same length:

  CM = MD

  8(x -2) = 4(5x -16)

  8x -16 = 20x -64 . . . eliminate parentheses

  48 = 12x . . . . . . . . . add 64 -8x

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 12

Then the length of CD is ...

  CD = 2·CM = 2(8(x -2)) = 2(8(4-2))

  CD = 32

If we put C and D on the same horizontal line as M, their coordinates are ...

Marty simplified the expression 2(x - 2) - 2(3) as 2x-8. Is he correct? Explain why or why not.

Answers

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

It should be 2x-4 (2*×=2x and 2*2=4)

No, the simplified expression is not correct.

What is simplification?

Simply put, to simplify is to make something simpler. Simplifying an equation, fraction, or issue in mathematics entails taking something complex and making it simpler. The issue is made simpler by calculations and problem-solving strategies. We can simplify fractions by removing all common elements from the numerator and denominator and putting the fraction in its simplest/lowest form.

Given expression

2(x - 2) - 2(3)

so 2(x - 2) = 2x - 2(2)

= 2x - 4

and 2(3) = 6

substitute the value

2(x - 2) - 2(3) = 2x - 4 - 6

= 2x - 10

and equation of Marty is  2x - 8

Hence the equation of marty is incorrect.

There is a proportional relationship between minutes and dollars per minute, shown on a graph of printing expenses. The graph passes through the point (1, 3.40). What is the slope of the graph? What is the unit rate? Complete the explanation.​

Answers

Answer:

Below!

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is 1. The unit rate is $4.75/min If the graph of a proportional relationship passes through the point (1 , R) then r equals the slope and the unit rate. $4.75 per min.

The slope of the graph resembles the unit rate.

The unit rate is the amount it cost per minute.

The graph passes through the point (1, 3.40), which means it is at x = 1, the rate is $4.75.

Answers

Answer:

y = 8x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 8) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = [tex]\frac{8-(-8)}{2-0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8+8}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{2}[/tex] = 8

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 8 ) ⇒ c = - 8

y = 8x - 8
