Students surveyed boys and girls separately to determine which sport was enjoyed the most. After completing the boy survey, it was determined that for every 3 boys who enjoyed soccer, 5 boys enjoyed basketball. The girl survey had a ratio of the number of girls who enjoyed soccer to the number of girls who enjoyed basketball of 7: 1. If the same number of boys and girls were surveyed, and 90 boys enjoy soccer, how many girls enjoy each sport?

Answers

Ratio of boys who liked soccer to boys who liked basketball = 3:5

Given :-

Number of boys who enjoyed soccer :-

[tex]\color{hotpink} = \color{hotpink}90 \: \: \color{hotpink}boys[/tex]

Total number of boys who were surveyed were equal to the total number of girls who were surveyed .

Which means :-

Let the total number of boys who were surveyed be x .

Total number of boys =

[tex] = \frac{3}{8} \times x = 90[/tex]

[tex] = x = 90 \div \frac{3}{8} [/tex]

[tex] = x = 90 \times \frac{8}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = x = \frac{720}{3} [/tex]

[tex]\color{hotpink}x =\color{hotpink} 240[/tex]

Which means a total of 240 boys were surveyed .

Number of boys who liked basketball :-

[tex] = \frac{5}{8} \times 240[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{1200}{8} [/tex]

[tex]\color{hotpink} = 150 \: \: boys[/tex]

Which means a total of 150 boys liked basketball .

Number of girls who liked soccer :-

[tex] = \frac{7}{8} \times 240[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{1680}{8} [/tex]

[tex]\color{hotpink} = 210 \: \: girls[/tex]

A total of 210 girls enjoyed soccer .

Number of girls who enjoyed basketball :-

[tex] = \frac{1}{8} \times 240[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{240}{8} [/tex]

[tex]\color{hotpink} = 30 \: \: girls[/tex]

A total of 30 girls like basketball .

Therefore , 210 girls enjoyed soccer and 30 girls enjoyed basketball .

Find the equation of line b described below, in slope-intercept form

Line a is perpendicular to line b
Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12)
Line b passes through the point (-8, -16)
The equation of line b is y= ______

Answers

Given:

Line a is perpendicular to line b .

Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12) .

Line b passes through the point (-8, -16).

To find:

The equation of b.

Solution:

Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12) . So, slope of line a is

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m_a=\dfrac{-12-(-8)}{9-1}[/tex]

[tex]m_a=\dfrac{-12+8}{8}[/tex]

[tex]m_a=\dfrac{-4}{8}[/tex]

[tex]m_a=-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.

[tex]m_a\times a_b=-1[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{1}{2}\times a_b=-1[/tex]

[tex]b=2[/tex]

Slope of line b is 2.

If a line passing through a point [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] with slope m, then equation of line is

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Line b passing through (-8,-16) with slope 2. So, equation of line b is

[tex]y-(-16)=2(x-(-8))[/tex]

[tex]y+16=2(x+8)[/tex]

[tex]y+16=2x+16[/tex]

Subtract 16  from both sides.

[tex]y=2x[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of line b is [tex]y=2x[/tex].

a and b are positive numbers.
a is inversely proportional to b.
when a=4,b=36
find value of a when b=a

Answers

Answer:

a = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a is inversely proportional to b then the equation relating them is

a = [tex]\frac{k}{b}[/tex] ← k is the comstant of proportion

To find k use the condition when a = 4, b = 36, then

4 = [tex]\frac{k}{36}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 36 )

144 = k

a = [tex]\frac{144}{b}[/tex] ← equation of proportion

When b = a , then

a = [tex]\frac{144}{a}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by a )

a² = 144 ( take square root of both sides )

a = ± [tex]\sqrt{144}[/tex] = ± 12

However a is a positive number, thus a = 12

Lines s, t, and u are perpendicular bisectors of the sides of APGH and meet at J. If JG - 2x+ 2, JH - 2y-4, JF-8 and

HI - 32-3, find x, y, and z.

Ox= 5, y = 2, z = 2

O x = 2, y = 7,2 = 2

x = 3, y = 6,2 = 4

x = 6.) = 3,2 = 4

Answers

Answer:

x = 3, y = 6, z = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If lines s, t, and u are perpendicular bisectors of the sides of APGH and meet at J, then JG = JH = JF = HI

Given

JG - 2x+ 2

JH - 2y-4

JF-8 a

HI - 3z-3,

Hence 2x+2 = 2y-4 = 3z-3 = 8

This means that

2x+2 = 8

2x = 8-2

2x = 6

x = 3

Also, 2y-4 = 8

2y = 8+4

2y = 12

y = 6

And 3z-3 = 8

3z = 8+3

3z = 11

z = 11/3

z = 3.67 ≈ 4

Hence x = 3, y = 6,z = 4

Solve for x when 4x+x+2=10x−13

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets add 4x + x so that we can get one x value on that side of the equation.

4x + x + 2 = 10x - 13

5x + 2 = 10x - 13

Then we can solve for x from there

5x + 2 = 10x - 13

-5x + 2 = -13   [Subtract 10x from both sides of the equation]

-5x = -15   [Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation]

-x = -3   [Simplify]

x = 3   [Simplify]

Hope this helps! I apologize if I got this incorrect

Answer:  x = 3

Steps: 4x + x + 2 = 10x - 13

Combine like terms: 5x + 2 = 10x - 13

Subtract 2 from both sides: 5x + 2 - 2 = 10x - 13 - 2

Simplify: 5x = 10x - 15

Subtract 10x from both sides: 5x - 10x = 10x - 15 - 10x

Simplify: -5x = -15

Divide both sides by -5:  -5x ÷ -5  =  -15 ÷ -5

Simplify: x = 3

Ryan and his brother are at a carnival. They separate from each other at the ferris wheel at 1:00 PM, and they agree that they will each meet back at the ferris wheel from time to time to see whether the other is ready to leave. Ryan checks the ferris wheel every 15 minutes. His brother checks in every 24 minutes. At what time will they meet at the ferris wheel again. (Hint: Don't forget you're looking for a time)

Answers

Answer:

3:00pm

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea hear is to find the least common multiples of 15 and 24

Given that they separated at exactly 1:00pm

the multiples are

15= 15,30,45,60,75,90,105,120

24= 24, 48,72,96,120

the multiples common is 120

Therefore they will meet in 120minute, which is 2 hours time \

hence the time will be 3:00pm

The third answer, y = 4x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the pair x = 2, and y = 9.

We know what x is, and what the result, y, is now.

Let's plug x into the third equation, y = 4x + 1

y = 4 * 2 + 1

y = 8 + 1

y = 9

We already know that y = 9, so this equation is correct.

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of linear equations Negative 5 x + y = 26 and 2 x minus 7 y = 16?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (-6, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're going to use technology to answer your questions, you may as well use appropriate technology: a graphing calculator. It shows the solution to the system is the ordered pair (-6, -4).

__

The first of the given equations can be solved for y, then that used to substitute for y in the second equation.

  y = 5x +26

  2x -7(5x +26) = 16

  2x -35x -182 = 16

  -198 = 33x . . . . . . . . add 33x-16

  -6 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 33

  y = 5(-6) +26 = -4 . . . find y

The solution is (x, y) = (-6, -4).

Part B: Solve for k.

Answers

Part A: Jackson added 3k instead of subtracting it from both sides.

Part B: 19 - 2k = 3k - 1
Subtract 3k from both sides
19 - 5k = - 1
Subtract 19 from both sides
- 5k = -20
Divide by -5 on both sides
