Southside High School has a total of 1824 students. There are 84 fewer girls at Southside than boys.

Write an expression you can use to find out how many boys, b, there are at Southside.

How many boys are students at Southside High?

How many girls are students at Southside High?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The expression you can use to find out how many boys is b + (b - 84) = 1824

There are 954 boys at Southside High School

There are 870 girls at Southside High School

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the number of boys in the Southside High School is b

∵ There are b boys in the Southside High School

∵ The number of girls is 84 fewer than boys

→ Subtract 84 from b to find the number of girls

∴ The number of girls in the Southside High School is (b - 84)

∵ Southside High School has a total of 1824 students

→ That means the sum of the numbers of the boys and the girls is 1824

∴ b + (b - 84) = 1824

∴ The expression you can use to find out how many boys is

   b + (b - 84) = 1824

→ Add the like terms in the left side

∴ (b + b) - 84 = 1824

2b - 84 = 1824

→ Add 84 to both sides

∵ 2b - 84 + 84 = 1824 + 84

2b = 1908

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find b

∵ [tex]\frac{2b}{2}=\frac{1908}{2}[/tex]

b = 954

There are 954 boys at Southside High School

∵ The number of girls at Southside High School = b -84

→ Substitute b by 954

∴ The number of girls at Southside High School = 954 - 84

∴ The number of girls at Southside High School = 870

There are 870 girls at Southside High School

3 cones       2 cones

Using cross products

8.25 * 2 = 3x

16.50 = 3x

Divide by 3

Answer:

$50 per month

Step-by-step explanation:

After 3 months there's $150, and after 6 months there's 300. When averaged out (150/3 and 300/6), both equal 50, meaning the constant rate of change is $50 a month.

in a geometrical progression,the product of the 2nd and 4th term is double the the 5th terms. and the sum of the first four terms is 80 find the G.p​

Answers

The 15th term of the geometric progression is 9,565,94.

What is the 15th term of the geometric progression?

A geometric progression can be expressed as an = a1rn-1 for some a1 and r. You are told that a2 * a4 = 2a5 and a1 + a2 + a3 + a4 = 80.

From the first equation, a2 = a1 r, a4 = a1 r3, and a5 = a1 r4. This tells us that

a1 r a1 r3 = 2 a1 r4

The r's and one a1 cancel leaving a1 = 2.

Now, plugging similarly into a1 + a2 + a3 + a4 = 80,

2 + 2r + 2r2 + 2r3 = 80

r3 + r2 + r + 1 = 40

In general, the easiest way to solve a cubic is by graphing, but here you know the answer will be a small integer, so just try a few. If we try r=3, we get 27 + 9 + 3 + 1 = 40 so r = 3.

So the geometric sequence here is an = 2 3n-1. The 15th term is then:

a15 = 2*3^14

a15 = 9,565,938.

Full question:

A G.P, the product of the 2nd and the 4th term is double the 5th term, and the sum of the first 4th terms is 80. find the 15th term.

Joshua walked 14 feet down the hall of his house to get the door he continued in a straight line out the door and across the yard to the mailbox, a distance of 24 feet he came straight back across the yard 10 feet and stopped to pet his dog How far did joshua walk in total

Answers

Answer:

Joshua walked 48 feet in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total distance we need to sum every distance that he walked. We have:

- First: Joshua walked down the hall to the door = 14 feet

- Second: He continued in a straight line out the door and across the yard to the mailbox = 24 feet

- Third: He came straight back across the yard and stopped to pet his dog = 10 feet

Hence, the total distance is:

[tex] d_{T} = d_{1} + d_{2} + d_{3} = 14 ft + 24 ft + 10 ft = 48 ft [/tex]

Therefore, Joshua walked 48 feet in total.

Assume the segment AB has already been constructed. What is the first step to construct the perpendicular bisector of AB?

Answers

Answer:

The first step is to place the compass needle on one of the ends of the given segment AB, and draw an arc above and below the segment AB

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps to construct a perpendicular to segment AB are;

1) Place the compass needle on one of the ends of the given segment AB, and draw an arc above and below the segment AB

2) With the same compass width, place the compass needle on the other end of segment AB, and draw an arc above and below the segment AB intersecting the arcs constructed in step 1 above. Label the point of intersection as C and D

3) With a straight edge, draw a line joining the points of intersection C and D of the two arcs. The line CD. is the perpendicular bisector of the segment AB.

6/8 time is twice as fast as 3/4
True or False

Answers

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying the numerator and the denominator by a number is basically multiplying the equation by 1, meaning that it won't change the value.

Keeping that in mind, 6/8 can be reduced to 3/4 by multiplying the top and bottom by 1/2, meaning they are equal.

To actually multiply a fraction to make it 2 times itself, you only multiply the numerator(top), not the denominator(bottom).

Brian rides his bike 0.27 of a mile per min. If it takes him 27 mins to ride his bike to his friends house, how far away does his friend live ?

Answers

Answer:

7.29 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1 minute, Brian rides his bike for 0.27 of a mile.

in 27 mins the distance is going to be more than the other ( i.e 0.27 miles)

We use the proportion then get a solution

1 min = 0.27 miles

27 mins = (27 mins÷ 1 min) × 0.27

= 27 × 0.27 miles

= 7.29 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

  Speed of the Brain's bike  = 0.27mile/min

Time = 27min

Unknown:

distance between Brain's house and where his friend lives =?

Solution:

Speed is a physical quantity.

   It is mathematically expressed as'

     Speed  = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

   Distance  = speed x time

  Input the parameters;

    Distance  = 0.27mile/min x 27min  = 7.29miles

Ivan is getting ready for a long road trip. He wants to pack a few books from his collection of 5 novels and 7 collected short stories books. He asks his friend to select a book without showing. From the remaining books, Ivan then himself picks a random book, which turns out to be a novel. The third book that he randomly selects from the remaining ones is also a novel. Find the probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is 0.0455

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

number of novels = 5

number of short stories = 7

total  number of books = 12

The probability that Ivan's friend pick's a novel = 5 / 12

The probability of Ivan's first pick to be a novel = 4 / 11

The probability of Ivan's second pick to be a novel = 3 /10

The probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is given by;

= p(Ivan's friend pick) and P(Ivan's first pick) and P(Ivan's second pick);

[tex]= \frac{5}{12}*\frac{4}{11}*\frac{3}{10}\\\\ = \frac{1}{22}\\\\ = 0.0455[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is 0.0455
