Answer:

75 more girls.

Explanation:-

Given:- Ratio of girls to boys = 5:3

And, the number of boys= 300

Let boys be 4x and girls be 5x

So, 4x = 300 (Given)

x = 300/4 = 75

Thus number of girls:- 5x = 5×75= 375 girls

now you take the 375 girls minus the 300 boys.

375-300 = 75 Girls more

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

When Jada took 8 steps, Noah took 10 steps

When Jada took 12 steps, Noah took 15 steps

a. The following table can be created as follows given that x = steps taken by Jada, and y = steps taken by Noah:

From the info given, the ratio of Noah's steps to Jada's steps is 15 : 12 = 10 : 8 = 5 : 4 = ⁵/4.

Use this ratio to create a table of 3 pairs of values as shown below.

Jada's Steps (x) ===> Noah's steps (y)

4 ===> 5

8 ==> 10

12 ==> 15

b. The graph of that shows this relationship has been attached below. Check the attachment.

c. Constant of proportionality can be calculated in each representation as follows: y/x = k. Where y is steps taken by Noah, x is for steps taken by Jada, and I is constant of proportionality.

Thus,

Constant of proportionality (k) = 15/12 = ⁵/4

This means, for every 5 steps taken by Noah, Jada takes 4 steps.

This relationship is represented by the equation, y = ⁵/4x.

The ⁵/4 in the equation is the constant of proportionality of their relationship.

d. The equation, description, graph, and table all represent the same situation because they all show the same constant of proportionality between x and y.

In the equation, ⁵/4 represents the constant of proportionality. In the graph, the slope is ⁵/4, which is also the same last constant of proportionality.

In the table, the constant of change in each pair is ⁵/4 all through.

What is the equation of a line passing through the points 6,3 and -4,3 so y=?
Mice21 [21]
Equation of a line using 2 points. first find the slope

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)= (3-3)/(-4-6)= 0/-10 = 0
m=0

using y-y1=m(x-x1)
we get
y-3=0(x-6)
y-3=0

y=3 is the equation of the line

a triangular sail has sides of 10 ft ,24ft,and 26ft .if the shortest side of a similar sail measures 6ft , what is the measure o
Katarina [22]

Answer:

15.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sails are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal.

Comparing the shortest sides, that is

10 : 6 = 5 : 3

let the longest side be x, then using proportion

\frac{26}{5} = \frac{x}{3} ( cross- multiply )

5x = 78 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 15.6

The longest side is 15.6 ft

Can someone help me on this plzzz
choli [55]

Answer:

b=15

How I got it:

32 + (7x4) = 32 + 28 = 60

60 divided by 4 = 15

Checking:

15 - 7 = 8

8 x 4 = 32

32 = 32

<em>You can tell b = 15 is the correct answer.</em>
