In a class there are two girls for every three boys. The ratio 2 : 3 compares the
number of girls to the number of boys.
a) What is the ratio of boys to the whole class? - 3:5
b) If this class has eight girls, determine how many boys there are using the ratio that there are two girls for every three boys

The third term, fourth term and tenth term are -1, -3, -15 respectively.

A sequence is a pattern of numbers in which successive terms differ by an constant term called the common difference or ratio.

Analysis:

For a sequence defined by the rule A(n) = 3 + (n-1)(-2)

Third term, n = 3

A(3) = 3 + (3-1)(-2) = -1

Fourth term, n = 4

A(4) = 3 + (4-1)(-2) = -3

Tenth term, n = 10

A(10) = 3 + (10-1)(-2) = -15

In conclusion, the third, fourth, tenth terms are -1, -3 and -15 respectively.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The matrix of coefficients has one row corresponding to each equation. The constants in that row are the coefficients of the variables in the equation. Coefficients are listed in the same order on each row. A missing term is represented by a coefficient of 0.

The first attachment shows the coefficient matrix and its determinant.

Answer:

It would be 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we make a list of all the sums that we can get, we have:

1+2, 1+3, 1+4, 1+5, 1+6, 2+3, 2+4, 2+5, 2+6, 3+4, 3+5, 3+6, 4+5, 4+6, 5+6

These 15 sums can be chosen in two ways, since order matters, and we could do 2+1 instead of 1+2.

That gets us to 15x2 which is 30.

The number of ways that we can choose the marbles such that the sum of the numbers on my marbles equals the number on his would be 30.

Answer:

59 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees

Angles in a triangle add up to 280 degrees

180 minus 149 is 31

31 add 90 is 121

180 minus 121 is 59

The value of z if x = 36 and y = 6 is 42

Suppose that y varies directly with x and inversely with z, hence the required expression will be:

y = kx/z

If  y = 4 when x = 8 and z = 14 then;

4 = k(8)/14

8k = 56

k = 7

To  find z when x = 36 and y = 6, we  will have:

6 = 7(36)/z
1 = 7(6)/z

z = 42

Hence the value of z if x = 36 and y = 6 is 42

Answer:

h(x) = 1/4 x

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = x + 4, h(x) = x – 4, h(x) = 3/4 x, h(x) = 1/4 x. Summary: The equation which represents the inverse of the function f(x) = 4x is h(x) = 1/4 x.

Answer: [tex]h=\frac{23}{10} =2.300[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

[tex]h+\frac{4}{-2} -((\frac{3}{10} ))=0[/tex]

[tex]Simplify~ \frac{3}{10}[/tex]

[tex](h+\frac{4}{-2} )-\frac{3}{10} =0[/tex]

Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  10  as the denominator :

[tex]h-2=\frac{h-2}{1} =\frac{h-2x10}{10}[/tex]

Equivalent fraction: The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator: The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

  Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to the lowest terms if possible:

[tex]\frac{(h-2)x10-(3)}{10} =\frac{10h-23}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{10h-23}{10} =0[/tex]

When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, CalderonJ multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

[tex]\frac{10h-23}{10} *10=0*10[/tex]

Now, on the left hand side, the  10  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  10h-23  = 0

Add  23  to both sides of the equation :

                     10h = 23

Divide both sides of the equation by 10:

                    h = 23/10 = 2.300

Final Answer: 2.3(decimal form) aka 23/10 (fraction)

Answer:

x = 144

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle sum of heptagon = 900

5x + 90 + 90 = 900
5x + 180 = 900
5x + 180 - 180= 900 - 180
5x = 720
Divide both sides by 5
x = 144

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

8^x= 1/64

Ensure both sides of the equation are in power format by changing 1/64

1/64 = 64^-1

8^x = 64^-1

2^3(x) = 2^6(-1)

The bases will cancel out each other

3(x) = 6(-1)

3x = -6

x = -6/3

x = -2

Check

8^x = 1/64

x = -2

8^-2

= 1/8²

= 1/8*8

= 1/64

Looking at the problem statement, the question is asking for us to determine the justification for the steps that are used to help solve the equation.  We are given the expression [tex]x + 17 = 38[/tex] to help achieve that goal.

Now that we know what we must do to finish this problem let us look how this equation can be solved.  When the term solve the equation is used it refers to us solving for the unknown, in this case being the variable x.  We can see that we have [tex]x + 17[/tex] on the left side and in order to solve the equation x must be alone so we would subtract 17 from both sides.

Subtract 17 from both sides

Therefore, we know that we must subtract the same number from both sides and this justification is known as the Subtraction Property of Equality.  This basically states that an equal value needs to be subtracted from both sides and it will become a new equation but with the same result.

Answer:

Subtraction Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: x + 17 = 38

Algebraic Properties:

Addition: If a = b, then a + c = b + c

Subtraction: If a = b, then a - c = b - c

Multiplication: If a = b, then ac = bc

Division: If a = b, then a ÷ c = b ÷ c

To solve this equation, we know that we need to isolate the variable x. To do this, we need to subtract 17 from both sides to isolate x.

This is also known as the subtraction property of equality, which states that when the same thing is subtracted from both sides of an equation, the equation will still be balanced. 

Subtract 17 from both sides:

x + 17 - 17  = 38 - 17

⟹ x = 21

Therefore, the subtraction property of equality is included in the steps used to solve this equation.

Answer:

Slope-intercept form of a linear equation:  [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where:

To determine the equation of the line of best fit from the given answer options, examine the relationship between the x and y values.

From inspection of the data, we can see that as x increases, y increases.  Therefore, the slope of the equation will be positive.

(If the y-values decrease as the x-values increase, then the slope would be negative).  

Therefore, we can immediately discount answer options B and D as they have negative slopes.

The x and y values are not very far away from each other.  The options given for the slope are either 1.560 or 4.105.  If the slope was 4.105, we would expect to see values of y that were further away from the x-values.

Therefore, the line of best fit is:

A:  y = 1.560x - 4.105

To prove this, plot the 5 points on a graph and draw a line of best fit (see attached).

Choose 2 points on the line of best fit:  (4, 2) and (11, 13)

Use the slope formula with these points to calculate the approximate slope:

[tex]\implies \sf slope\:(m)=\dfrac{change\:in\:y}{change\:in\:x}\approx\dfrac{13-2}{11-4}=\dfrac{11}{7}=1.57[/tex]

Thus proving that y = 1.560x - 4.105 is an appropriate option for the equation of the line of best fit.

A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. It is a fundamental form in geometry. The length of the legs XY and YZ is equal to 39 units.

A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. It is a fundamental form in geometry. The sum of all the angles of a triangle is always equal to 180°. An isosceles triangle has two sides out of three equal.

A.) The value of n can be found by equating XY and XZ together,

XY = XZ

9n + 12 = 15n - 6

12 + 6 = 15n - 9n

18 = 6n

n = 3

Hence, the value of n is 3.

The length of different legs of the triangle is,

B.) XY = 9n + 12 = 9(3) + 12 = 27 + 12 = 39

C.) YZ = 15n - 6 = 15(3) - 6 = 45 - 6 = 39

Hence, the length of the legs XY and YZ is equal to 39 units.
