Answer:

The fraction of male student who play sport is \frac{3}{4}  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Out of the total number of students , the fraction of male = \frac{2}{3} of total number of students

Let the total number of students = x

So, The fraction of male student = \frac{2}{3} of x

I.e  The fraction of male student = \frac{2 x}{3}

Again

The number of students who play sports =  \frac{1}{2} of total number of students

Or, The number of students who play sports =  \frac{1}{2} of x

Or, The number of students who play sports =  \frac{x}{2}

Let The total number of male student who play sport = y

So, According to question

\frac{2 x}{3} of y =  \frac{x}{2}

I.e \frac{2 x}{3} × y =  \frac{x}{2}

or, y = \frac{\frac{x}{2}}{\frac{2 x}{3}}

∴ y = \frac{3}{4}

So,  The total number of male student who play sport = y =  \frac{3}{4}

Hence ,The fraction of male student who play sport is \frac{3}{4}  Answer

Find the coordinates of the centroid of triangle RST. SHOW YOUR WORK so I can see if the answer makes sense (no links)
zimovet [89]

Note the coordinates of each point: R(-4, 5), S(5, 1), T(2, -3).

The centroid is the point whose coordinates are the average of the coordinates of R, S, and T.

<em>x</em>-coordinate: (-4 + 5 + 2)/3 = 3/3 = 1

<em>y</em>-coordinate: (5 + 1 - 3)/3 = 3/3 = 1

So the centroid is (1, 1).

Answer:

The answers to each part are:

Part A.

  • <u>The quantity of apples is one-third of the quantity of grapes</u>.

Part B.

  • <u>The quantity of apples is a quarter of the quantity of strawberries</u>.

Part C.

  • <u>The number of cherries is two-elevenths of the total fruit</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the answer in each case, you must remember that all the parts are equal, then:

Part A.

The parts of apples are 1 and the parts grapes are 3, so if you divide the first quantity with the second quantity you obtain:

  • 1 / 3 = 1/3 (one-third)

So, <u>the quantity of apples is one-third of the quantity of grapes</u> or the quantity of apples is three times smaller than the quantity of grapes.

Part B.

The parts of apples are 1 and the parts of strawberries are 4, then you must divide the first quantity with the second quantity:

  • 1 / 4 = 1/4 (a quarter)

In this case, <u>the quantity of apples is a quarter of the quantity of strawberries</u> or the quantity of apples is four times smaller than the quantity of strawberries.

Part C.

First, you must add all the part of fruit:

  • <em>1 part apple</em>
  • <em>1 part orange</em>
  • <em>4 parts strawberry</em>
  • <em>2 parts cherry </em>
  • <em>3 parts grape</em>

The total of fruits is 11 parts, taking into account the quantity of cherries is 2, now you can divide the number of cherries with the total parts of fruit:

  • 2 / 11 = 2/11 (two-elevenths)

Now, you can see <u>the number of cherries is two-elevenths of the total fruit</u>.

5x + 2y = 3<br> 2x+3y=-1<br> Solve
professor190 [17]

Answer:

x = 1

y = -1

Point = (1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = -1   =   y = -2/3 - 1/3

5x + 2(-2/3 - 1/3) = 3

5x - 1 1/3 - 2/3 = 3

5x - 2 = 3

<u>     +2    +2</u>

5x = 5

<em><u>x = 1</u></em>

2(1) + 3y = -1

2 + 3y = -1

<u>-2           -2</u>

3y = -3

<em><u>y = -1</u></em>
