There are 15 female students in Ms. Stell's World History Class. The ratio of females to males is 5:4. How many males are in her class?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 15 is 3 times the ratio you multiply 4 by 3

Answer 2

Answer:

There are 12 boys in Ms. Stell's World History Class.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio we are given is 5:4.

*5 is the simplified version of 15

*4 is the simplified version of x (total number of boys)

The first thing we need to do is find the number that gives us the total number of girls (15)

5*3 = 15.

Now we do that for the 4.

[tex]\frac{5*3}{4*3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{15}{12}[/tex]

The answer should be 15:12

Best of Luck!

Mrs. Allen a high school teacht is grading quizzes and tests this weekend she has at most 4 hours or 240 minutes to spend grading and she would like to get at least 60 quizzes and tests graded on average it takes her 3 minutes to grade each quiz and 8 minutes to grade each test

Answers

Answer:

(55,9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Write one inequality to represent the number of quizzes and tests Mrs. Allen must grade and one inequality to represent the number of minutes it will take her to grade the quizzes and tests.

Mrs. Allen must grade at least 60 quizzes and tests, so the sum of x and y must be greater than or equal to 60.

On average, it takes Mrs. Allen 3 minutes to grade each quiz and 8 minutes to grade each test. So, the total number of minutes it takes her to grade x quizzes is 3x minutes, and the total number of minutes it takes her to grade y tests is 8y minutes. Since she has at most 240 minutes to spend grading, the sum of 3x and 8y must be less than or equal to 240.

The solution set to the system of these linear inequalities represents the numbers of quizzes and tests Mrs. Allen can grade this weekend.

Now, consider each of the coordinate points. In order to be a solution to this system of inequalities, both inequalities must be satisfied by the values of x and y. When x = 55 and y = 9, both inequalities are satisfied. To confirm, substitute these values of x and y into the first inequality.

Now substitute the values into the second inequality.

Therefore, the only point that lies in the solution set is (55,9).

The sum of a whole number and twice the square of the number is 10. Find the number

Answers

Answer:

Hey there !

Solution:

Let the number be x

=> x + 2x² = 10

=> 2x² + x - 10 = 0

Factorising the quadratic equation we get,

=> 2x² + 5x - 4x - 10 = 0

=> x ( 2x + 5 ) -2 ( 2x + 5 ) = 0

=> ( x - 2 ) ( 2x + 5 ) = 0

=> x = 2, -5/2

Since x is a whole number, -5 / 2 wont be applicable.

Hence x = 2.

Hence the number is 2.

On Monday. I bought 3 shirts and 7 pairs of pants for a total cost of $17.25. On
Tuesday, I bought 3 shirts and 9 pairs of pants for a total cost of $20.25. Can you
find the price of each item?

Answers

Answer:

Shirt: $2.25. and Pants: $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equations with shirts as s and pants as p.

3s+7p=17.253s+9p=20.25

Subtract them as there are two variables and two equations:

-2p=-3Make positive, 2p=3Divide, p=1.5

To find s:

3s+7(1.5)=3s+10.5=17.25, so 3s=6.75 and s=2.253s+9(1.5)=3s+13.5=20.25, so 3s=6.75 and s=2.25
1 shirt costs $191.20

1 pair of pants cost $1.65

If a 30 foot ladder is positioned so that the bottom of the ladder is 1/4 of its length away from the wall, what angle does the ladder make with the ground

Answers

Answer:

[tex]75.52^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The length of the ladder = 30 ft

Distance between bottom of ladder and wall = [tex]\frac{1}{4}^{th}[/tex] of its length

To find:

Angle made between the ladder and ground = ?

Solution:

This situation can be compared with a right angled [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] as shown in the attached image in the answer area.

Side AC being the hypotenuse has the ladder along it.

AB is the wall.

BC is the distance between the wall and foot of ladder.

Formula for cosine trigonometric ratio:

[tex]cos\theta = \dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

In [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex]:

[tex]cosC=\dfrac{BC}{AC}[/tex]

Putting the values:

[tex]BC=\dfrac{AC}{4}[/tex]

[tex]cosC=\dfrac{\frac{AC}4}{AC}\\\Rightarrow cos C = \dfrac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow \angle C = cos^{-1}(0.25)\\\Rightarrow \angle C =\bold{75.52^\circ}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Answer: C. (1,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint

Given a segment defined by points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), the midpoint (xm,ym) is calculated as follows:

[tex]\displaystyle x_m=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle y_m=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}[/tex]

The endpoints are (-2,-4) and (4,6).

Calculating the midpoint:

[tex]\displaystyle x_m=\frac{-2+4}{2}=\frac{2}{2}=1[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle y_m=\frac{-4+6}{2}=\frac{2}{2}=1[/tex]

The midpoint is (1,1).

Vanessa works 32 hours per week at her job. Her boss offers her a full time job (40 Hours per week) and a 2 dollar per hour raise. She says "this is great now I'll make 200 more per week". What is Vanessa's hourly wage before the raise?

Answers

Answer:

$35.75 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate this, we first need to calculate how much she made with her current hourly wage. We do this by multiplying the hours she worked by her current hourly wage plus her raise.

32 hours * (40+2) = $1,344

Now we subtract $200, since this is how much more she is making with her raise, and then we divide that amount by the 32 hours she is working per week.

(1,344 - 200) / 32 = $35.75 per hour

Finally, we can see that Vanessa's hourly wage before the raise was $35.75 per hour

[tex]8=\frac{4}{3}(-4)+b[/tex]

After solving the equation, b will equal -16/3 making the final equation be
