There are a total of 297 students in the 7th grade. Rough estimates would say that about half of that number are boys and half are girls. Asking only 50 random girls would be biased because not only would it not be all of the girls (the number of girls would be around 148 or 149) but it would also be ignoring the roughly 148 to 149 boys there are on estimate. The sample would be biased because it would be ignoring the opinions of more than half the seventh grade.

F(x) = 1/(5x-6)Find the derivative of this function
siniylev [52]

Given

f(x)=\frac{1}{5x-6}

To find the derivative of the give function,we apply below exponent rule first:

\frac{1}{a}=a^{-1}

So,

Next, we apply the chain rule:

So,

We substitute back u=(5x-6):

Simplify:

Therefore, the answer is:

=-\frac{5}{(5x-6)^2}

The length of a rectangle is 7 centimeters greater than the width.
Lisa [10]

Answer:

length = 17cm, width = 10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

2L + 2w = 54

L = w + 7

Substitute:

2(w + 7) + 2w = 54

2w + 14 + 2w = 54

4w = 40

w = 10

L = 10 + 7 = 17

Solve this system and list the method that you chose graphing substitution or elimination Y=2x-12
zmey [24]
Substitution

y = 2x - 12
y = -x + 3

-x + 3 = 2x - 12
+ x + x
-----------------------------
3 = 3x - 12
+ 12 + 12
-----------------------
15 = 3x
------ ------
3 3

x = 5


y = 2(5) - 12
y = 10 - 12
y = -2


The final answer is (5,-2).

keith made $306.00 for 18 hours of work at the same rate how many hours would he have to work to make $204.00
Mice21 [21]
306 / 18 = 17
So he's on $17 / hour

$204 / $17 = 12.
Therefore he'd make $204 in 12 hours.
