The ratio of nonwinners in group A to nonwinners in group B after the selections are made is 156 : 319.

<h3>What is the ratio?</h3>

Ratio expresses the relationship between two or more numbers. It shows the frequency of the number of times that one value is contained within other value(s).

Nonwinners in group A = (1 - 3/5) x 390 = 156

Winners in group B = (390 - 156) = 234

nonwinners in group B = 553 - 234 = 319

The ratio = 156 : 319

You can write every speed as the ratio between the space and time, so in this case you have

\dfrac{12\text{ inches}}{3\text{ minutes}} = 4\ \dfrac{\text{inches}}{\text{minute}}

What is slope when talking about math
dolphi86 [110]
When graphing, its how much you rise and run
thats the formula when u have a graph and the question is asking for the slope.
you chose a point, and go down or up however many times it goes to the next point, and you run to the left however many times it gets you to get to that point.
if the line goes downward the slope is therefore negative, and if the line goes upward, the slope is therefore, positive.
m in math is meant to be slope, so m= \frac{rise}{run}

Which expressions are equivalent when y = 2 and y = 5? 2 y minus 1 and 3 y minus 5 + y 5 y + 4 and 7 y + 4 minus 2 y y + 7 and y
noname [10]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

Option b

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The question is shown in the attached image

To answer this question, we will simply substitute in the given expressions with the values y=2 and y=5

The correct option will be the one having equal vales in both cases

<u>1. Option a:</u>

<u>At y = 2:</u>

2y - 1 = 2(2) - 1 = 3

3y - 5 + y = 3(2) - 5 + 2 = 3

<u>At y = 5:</u>

2y - 1 = 2(5) - 1 = 10

3y - 5 + y = 3(5) - 5 + 5 = 15

This option is <u>incorrect</u>, since both expressions are not equal at y = 5

<u>2. Option b:</u>

<u>At y = 2:</u>

5y + 4 = 5(2) + 4 = 14

7y + 4 - 2y = 7(2) + 4 - 2(2) = 14

<u>At y = 5:</u>

5y + 4 = 5(5) + 4 = 29

7y + 4 - 2y = 7(5) + 4 - 2(5) = 29

This option is <u>correct</u>, since both expressions are equal at the two vales of y

<u>3. Option c:</u>

<u>At y = 2:</u>

y + 7 = 2 + 7 = 9

y + 2 + y = 2 + 2 + 2 = 6

<u>At y = 5:</u>

y + 7 = 5 + 7 = 12

y + 2 + y = 5 + 2 + 2 = 12

This option is <u>incorrect</u>, since both expressions are not equal at y = 2

<u>4. Option d:</u>

<u>At y = 2:</u>

3y - 4 = 3(2) - 4 = 2

3y - 2 + y = 3(2) - 2 + 2 = 6

<u>At y = 5:</u>

3y - 4 = 3(5) - 4 = 11

3y - 2 + y = 3(5) - 2 + 5 = 18

This option is <u>incorrect</u>, since both expressions are neither equal at y = 2 or y = 5

Hope this helps :)
