Out of the 25 students in Mrs. Coulter's class, 15 are girls. In the school there are 390 boys. If the ratio of boys to students

in Mrs. Coulter's class is proportional to the ratio of the number of boys in the school to the total number of students in the school, how many students are at the school?

Answer:

975 students

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a dense question. Let's look at it piece by piece:

1. The ratio of boys to students in the class is 10/25. If there are 25 students and 15 girls, that leaves 10 boys.

2. The question says that the ratio is in proportion of boys to total students in the school. "In proportion" in this case means that if we convert 10/25 to a fraction with numerator 390, the denominator is the amount of students in school.

3. 10x39=390. What you do the numerator you must do to the denominator: 25x39=975.

4. This means 975 students go to the school.

write an equations in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the point(5,9) with slope 7
vovangra [49]

Answer:

y=7x-26

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Write it in the slope-intercept form of y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y=7x +c

2) Substitute the given coordinates into y=7x +b, and then solve for c.

9=7(5) +b\\9=35+b\\9-35=b\\b= -26

3) Substitute c into y=7x +b

y=7x-26

Therefore, the answer is y=7x-26.

Forces with magnitudes of 2000 newtons and 900 newtons act on a machine part at angles of +30degrees and -45degrees respectively
mote1985 [20]

To get the resultant magnitude and direction of the forces we need to separate the force into its x and y components. For the x components it is the sum of 2000cos(30) and 900cos(45), which is 2368.4469 N. For the y components it will be the sum of 2000sin(30) and -900sin(45), the value for the second force is negative because it is pointing downwards, their sum would be 363.6038 N. The magnitude for the resultant force can be determined using the pythagorean theorem R=sqrt(2368.4469^2 + 363.6038^2) while its direction is found using tan^-1(363.6038/2368.4469). The final answer would be 2396.1946 N with an angle of 8.7279 degrees from the right side of x axis.
