Answer:

280

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a ratio to solve.

Mr. Fraser's class has 20 soccer playing students, and 14 are boys.

14/20 = x/400

Cross multiply. 20x= 5600

Divide by 20 to solve

x= 280

What is x and what converse is used to find x
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

the third angle of the inner triangle is defined by using the rule that the sum of all angles in a triangle must be 180 degrees. let's call this angle a

180 = 48 + 16x + a

132 - 16x = a

and then we know that both angles, 28x and a together must also be 180, as they are complementing each other to cover the whole top of the base line.

so,

28x + 132 - 16x = 180

12x = 48

x = 4

If you have a cubic polynomial of the form y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d and lets say it passes through the points (2,28), (-1, -5),
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a = 3

b = 2

c = 0

d = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Form 4 equations and solve simultaneously

28 = a(2)³ + b(2)² + c(2) + d

28 = 8a + 4b + 2c + d (1)

-5 = -a + b - c + d (2)

220 = 64a + 16b + 4c + d (3)

-20 = -8a + 4b - 2c + d (4)

(1) + (4)

28 = 8a + 4b + 2c + d

-20 = -8a + 4b - 2c + d

8 = 8b + 2d

d = 4 - 4b

Equation (2)

c = -a + b + d + 5

c = -a + b + 4 - 4b+ 5

c = -a - 3b + 9

28 = 8a + 4b + 2c + d (1)

28 = 8a + 4b + 2(-a - 3b + 9) + 4 - 4b

28 = 6a - 6b + 22

6a - 6b = 6

a - b = 1

a = b + 1

220 = 64a + 16b + 4c + d (3)

220 = 64(b + 1) + 16b + 4(-b - 1 - 3b + 9) + 4 - 4b

220 = 60b + 100

60b = 120

b = 2

a = 2 + 1

a = 3

c = -3 - 3(2) + 9

c = 0

d = 4 - 4(2)

d = -4

In a shipment of 22 smartphones, 2 are defective. How many ways can a quality control inspector randomly test 4 smartphones, of
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Therefore the required ways are =190

Step-by-step explanation:

Combination: Combination is the number of selection of items from a collection of items where the order of selection does not matter.

Total number of smartphones =22

Defective phone = 2

Non defective phone = (22-2) =20

The control inspector randomly test 4 smartphones of which 2 are defective.

Non defective phone = 2

The ways to select 2 non defective phone is

^{20}C_2=\frac{20!}{2!(20-2)!} =\frac{20!}{2!18!}=\frac{19\times 20}{2} =190

The ways to select 2 defective phone is= ^2C_2=1

Therefore the required ways are = (190×1) =190
