Explain in words what mistake you made and how will correct it. in a group of 20 children,there were 8 girls. which is the ratio

Nataly_w [17]

Well first do 20 children minus 8 girls to find how many boys there are:
20-8=16
So there are 16 boys. Therefore we can write the ratio of girls to boys as:
8/16
Then we can simplify this ratio by dividing it by 8 to get:
1/2
So the answer is the ratio of girls to boys in the group in simplest form is 1/2.

Total brain fart! 24+5x=-x+6(5a-4)

kow [346]

Answer:

When solving for x, answer = $\large\boxed{x = 5a - 8}$

When solving for a, answer = $\large\boxed{a = 1/5x + 8/5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

24 + 5x = -x + 6(5a - 4)

Start by multiplying 6 by the values in the parenthesis

24 + 5x = -x + 30a - 24

Add 24 to both sides of the equation

48 + 5x = -x + 30a

Add 1x to both sides of the equation

48 + 6x = 30a

Subtract 48 from both sides of the equation

6x = 30a - 48

Divide both sides of the equation by 6

x = 5a - 8 (Answer when solving for x)

Add 8 to both sides of the equation

x + 8 = 5a

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

a = 1/5x + 8/5 (Answer when solving for a)

-----------------------------------------

When solving for x, answer = $\large\boxed{x = 5a - 8}$

When solving for a, answer = $\large\boxed{a = 1/5x + 8/5}$

Hope this helps :)

What is the slope of the line that goes through -3,7 & -17,3

Natalka [10]

Point 1: (-3, 7)

Point 2: (-17, 3)

To find the slope, we need to use the slope formula which is as follows: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). We will plug in each x and y coordinate from our points above, respectively.

m = (3 - 7) / (-17 - - 3)

m = (-4) / (-14)

m = 2/7

The slope of the line that goes through (-3, 7) and (-17, 3) is 2/7.

Hope this helps!! :)
