There are 15 boys in the 7th grade class

We first should find how 7 relates to the 21 girls.

To do this we can divide.

The 21 girls by the 7 ratio 

21 divided by 7 is 3

So 1 out of 7 in the ratio is 3 girls

We can now move this over to the boys.

If 1 means 3, and their are a ratio of 5 boys

We do 5 x 3,

Which equal 15.

Their are 15 boys in 7th grade.

Hope this helps!

a walking path across a park is represented by the equation y=-2x-7. A new path will be built perpendicular to this path.The pat
jonny [76]

Answer:

The equation that represents the new path is y=(1/2)x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the give line

we have

y=-2x-7

so

the slope m is equal to

m=-2

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other

so

we have

m=-2 -----> slope of the given line

therefore

The slope of the perpendicular line is equal to

m=1/2

step 3

With m=1/2 and the point (-2,-3) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y+3=(1/2)(x+2)

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

y=(1/2)x-2 -----> equation that represent the new path

A circle is a set of all points that are the same distance from one given point. Find an wxample that cotradicts this definition
eduard

Answer:

Part A

The given definition of a circle is the set of all points that are the same distance from one given point

One example that contradicts the definition, is the set of all points in a three dimensional plane which are equidistant from, a point, which is the definition of a sphere

Part B

The definition of a circle can be modified to include the location of the points <em>on the same plane</em>, from which we therefore have;

<em>A circle is a set of all points on a plane that are the same distance from one given point</em>

Ezra works two summer jobs to save for a laptop that costs at least $1100. He charges $15/hr to mow lawns and $10/hr to walk dog
LiRa [457]

\\&#10;\text{Ezra works two summer jobs to save for a laptop that costs at least }\$1100\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{also given that he charges 15 dollars per hour to mow lawns and }\\&#10;\text{10 dollars per hour to walk dogs.}\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{so if he mow lawns for x hours and walk the dogs for y hours in summer,}\\&#10;\text{then the inequality that modeles this data is}\\&#10;\\&#10;15x+10 y \geq 1100

\text{now suppose Ezra decides to also spend more than }\$80 \text{ on a printer,}\\&#10;\text{so the total expences he want for laptop and printer is}=1100+80=1180\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{so now the inequality becomes: }

15 x+10 y >1180
