Answer:
7 are boys
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a system of equations where g is for girls and b is for boys.
b+g=26
g=3b-2
Substitute "3b-2" in for "g" in the first equation.
b+(3b-2)=26
Rewrite without the parentheses because it's addition and not multiplication.
b+3b-2=26
Combine like terms.
4b-2=26
Add 2 to both sides.
4b=28
Divide by the coefficient of the variable to get it alone.
b=7
Answer:
use trig
Step-by-step explanation:
sin(15) = 100/x
x = 100/sin(15)
use calculator
This can be determined by finding the x-intercept. In doing so, we let y=0 to find the value of x.
y= 2x^2 -x -3
[0 = 2x^2 -x-3]÷2
0 = x^2 -1/2 x - 3/2
Complete the squares:
1/16 + 3/2 = x^2 - 1/2x + 1/16
25/16 = (x -1/4)^2
sqrt (25/16) = x - 1/4
+/- 5/4 = x - 1/4
Thus,
x = 1/4 + 5/4 = 3/2
x = 1/4 - 5/4 = -1
Thus, the graph crosses at x = 3/2 and x = -1.
-10x is the final answer
Hope this helps
