the population pf a city is 2,500. if the number of males is 240 more than the number of females how many males and females are
Masteriza [31]

You need to represent the number of males in terms of females.

Explanation:

Since you know the number of males relative to females, it makes sense to represent the number of females as a variable, let's say f.

So then the number of males is <span>f+240</span> and we know that the number of males plus the number of females is 2500. Knowing this, we can write an equation: <span>f+<span>(f+240)</span>=2500</span>. I put the number of males in brackets there just to make it easy to recognize.

This equation can be condensed into <span>2f+240=2500</span> and then solved:

<span>2f=2500−240</span>
<span>f=<span><span>2500−240</span>2</span></span>
<span>f=1130</span>

Then, we know the number of females, and we can solve for the number of males from here using our male formula: <span>males=f+240</span>. You should then get 1370 as the number of males.

Checking this answer, we see that 1130 + 1370 does equal 2500.

In a certain deck of cards, each card has a positive integer written on it. In a multiplication game, a child draws a card and m
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

  4 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

You want integer solutions to ...

  15 ≤ n(n+1) ≤ 200

If we let the limits be represented by "a", then the equality is represented by ...

  n² +n -a = 0

  (n² +n +1/4) -a -1/4 = 0

  (n +1/2)^2 = (a +1/4)

  n = -1/2 + √(a +1/4)

For a=15, we have

  n ≥ -1/2 + √15.25 ≈ 3.4 . . . . . minimum n is 4

For a=200, we have

  n ≤ -1/2 + √200.25 ≈ 13.7 . . . maximum n is 13

The least and greatest integers on the cards are 4 and 13.

What is the range and domain of the relation?<br><br> {(-3, 4), (-2, 0), (0, -1), (1, 2), (-3, 2)}?​
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Range: {-1, 0, 2, 4}

Domain: {-3, -2, 0, 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is the set containing all y-coordinates.

The domain is the set containing all x-coordinates.

A coordinate appears only once in each set.

Range: {-1, 0, 2, 4}

Domain: {-3, -2, 0, 1}

I NEED HELPPPPP<br> Which graph represents the inequality x≤2?
Art [367]

Answer:

The top left graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Everything should be shaded to the left of x = 2 (because it's less than 2), and there should be a solid line at x = 2 (because it's equal to 2)

Please help. Find the product or quotient in simplified form. Explain how to multiply and divide fractions.
miskamm [114]
<span>5 1/6 x 1/3
</span>first convert 5 1/6 (which is a mixed fraction) into an improper fraction ...
=> 6*5+1/6 = 31/6
=>now we have ... 31/6 * 1/3
=> to multiply fractions we multiply the numerators ( top numbers ) with each other and the denominators (bottom numbers ) also the same way ...
=> 31/6 * 1/3 => 31*1 / 6*3 => 31/18 
=> then divide them to get answer as mixed fraction ..
=> 1 13/18  ..

<span>3 1/2 / 1 1/3
</span>=> here also first convert 3 1/2 and 1 1/3 into improper fractions ..
=> 3 1/2 => 2*3+1/2 => 7/2 
=> 1 1/3 => 3*1+1/3=> 4/3
=> now divide them ..
=> 7/2/4/3 
=> for dividing fractions we take the reciprocal of one fraction and then multiply ..
=> 7/2 * 3/4 
=> now multiply these two fractions ..
=> 7*3/2*4 => 21/8 
=> answer as mixed fraction = 2 5/8 ...

Hope it helps !!!
