No. of children in lamb, chicken, duck, and turkey category is 66, 24, 18 and 12 respectively.

<h3>What is percentage ?</h3>

Percentage is the value per hundredth.

According to the given question a survey was carried out among 120 school children looked at which type of meat they preferred. 55% said they preferred lamb,20% said they preferred chicken, 15% preferred duck and 10% turkey and we have to calculate no. of children in each category.

55% said they preferred lamb, So the no. of students i this category is

= (55/100)×120

= 66 children.

20% said they preferred chicken, So the no. of children in this category is

= (20/100)×120

= 24 children.

15% said they preferred duck, So the no. of children in this category is

= (15/100)×120

= 18 children.

10% said they preferred turkey, So the no. of children in this category is

= (10/100)×120

= 12 children.

A taco stand sells tacos for $3.25 each. The stands expenses for the day are $210. Define your variables and write an inequality
Julli [10]
Given:

Let P= profit
let n= no. of tacos sold per day

Sol'n:

P= 3.25n-210
the profit needs to be positive, thus

3.25n>210

n>210/3.25

n> 64.615

they can only sell whole tacos, therefore they must sell at least 65 tacos to make a profit and that profit is:

P=3.25n-210

P=3.25*65 - 210

P= 211.25 -210

P= 1.25

$1.25 profit

Just need help on #7 thru 8(a), b and c
Stella [2.4K]

7

a. The slope of the line passing through the points R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is -3/4

b. The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is 5 units

c.  The midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is  (2, 4)

8.

a. The transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

b.

  • The x-coordinate is shifted 1 unit to the left and
  • The y - coordinate is shifted 1 unit downwards.

c. The image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6) is (6, 5)

<h3 /><h3>7 a. How to find the slope of the line?</h3>

The slope of a line passing through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

So, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = (2 - 5)/(-1 - 3)

m = -3/-4

m = -3/4

So, the slope of the line passing through the points R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is -3/4

<h3>b. The distance between the points</h3>

The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is d = √[(y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²]

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

d = √[(y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²]

d = √[(2 - 5)² + (-1 - 3)²]

d = √[(-3)² + (-4)²]

d = √[9 + 16]

d = √25

d = 5 units

So, the distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is 5 units

<h3>7 c How to find the midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) </h3>

The midpoint of the the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is (x, y)  = [(x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2]

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

So, the midpoint (x, y)  = [(x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2]

(x, y)  = [(3 + (-1))/2, (5 + 3)/2]

(x, y)  = [(3 - 1)/2, (5 + 3)/2]

(x, y)  = [4/2, 8/2]

(x, y)  = (2, 4)

So, the midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is  (2, 4)

<h3>8. a The rule for the transformation of point A(1, 4) to point B(2, 3)</h3>

Given that point A(1, 4) and point B(2, 3) we see that point B(1 + 1, 4 - 1).

Let pont A be (x,y).

So, point B = (x + 1, y - 1)

So, the transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

<h3>b. Describe the transformation</h3>

Since the transformation rule is   (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1), we see that

  • the x-coordinate is shifted 1 unit to the left and
  • the y - coordinate is shifted 1 unit downwards.
<h3>c. The image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6)</h3>

Since the transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1) and point B is (5, 6), thus the image of B' is

(x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

(5,6) → (5 + 1, 6 - 1)

(5,6) → (6, 5)

So, the image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6) is (6, 5)
