First off, 1/5 is equal to 20%. If you're diving something into 5ths, you can do 100 / 5, which is 20. So you know that Raul scored at least 20% of the points. His friend Jake ALSO scores 20% of the teams points, making 20 + 20 = 40%. Therefore, 40% of the teams points were scored by Raul and Jake.

Ind the slope and y intercept of -9x+3y=5

Radda [10]

Answer:

first, you need to get y on one side. So, because the x is negative it becomes positive when you switch it to the other side. 3y= 9x+5. You then need to divide all parts by 3. 3/3= 1 so thats just y. 9/3 is 3 so thats 3x. then 5/3 is a fraction that you can write as just 5/3 or 1 and 2/3. That would leave you with y= 3x + 5/3. Then x (3) is your slope. and what you add to it (5/3) is your y int.

An individual is planning a trip to a baseball game for 16 people. Of the people planning to go to the baseball game, 8 can go o

Sedaia [141]

Answer: There are 4 people who only go to the game on Saturday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of people go on Saturday be n(A).

Let the number of people go on Sunday be n(B).

Since we have given that

n(A) = 8

n(B) = 12

n(A∪B) = 16

According to rules, we get that

$n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)=n(A\cup B)\\\\8+12-n(A\cap B)=16\\\\20-n(A\cap B)=16\\\\n(A\cap B)=20-16=4$

So, n(only go on Saturday) = n(only A) = n(A) - n(A∩B) = 8-4 = 4

Hence, there are 4 people who only go to the game on Saturday.

stiv31 [10]

Using the Pythagoras theorem

15^2 = x^2 + h^2 where h = height of ladder on the nuiding

h^2 = 15^2 - 6^2 = 189

= 13.75 ft to nearest hundredth
