Answer:if there are 7 HS students for every 2 MS students and there are 18 MS students...

18/2 = 9

9(7) = 63

So, there are 18 + 63 = 81 total students.

Since we had 9 parts last year also (1:8), 81/9 = 9 students are in each part. 8 students in each part are HS and one is MS.

8(9) = 72 HS students last year.

72 - 63 = 9 fewer HS students than last year.

Hope this helps!

Using the definitions of even integer and odd integer, give a proof by contraposition that this statement is true for all intege

kvasek [131]

Suppose $n$ is even, i.e. there is some integer $k$ such that $n=2k$ . Then

$3n-5=3(2k)-5=6k-5=6k-6+1=2(3k-3)+1=2K+1$

where $K$ is just some other integer. Therefore $3n-5$ is odd, proving the contrapositive, and so the original statement is also true.

Answer:

$\frac{x+2}{3x-1}$

Explanation:

→ $\frac{(x^2-9)(x+2)}{(3x^2 +8x -3)(x-3)}$

→ $\frac{\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)\left(x+2\right)}{\left(3x^2+8x-3\right)\left(x-3\right)}$

→ $\frac{\left(x+3\right)\left(x+2\right)}{3x^2+8x-3}$

→ $\frac{\left(x+3\right)\left(x+2\right)}{\left(3x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)}$

→ $\frac{x+2}{3x-1}$

Indicate the equation of the given line in standard form, writing the answer in the equation box below.

Answer:

x -3y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

A plot of the points reveals the longer diagonal to be BD. (Also, point C is on that line.)

We can write the standard form equation of the line through (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) as ...

(y2 -y1)x -(x2 -x1)y = (y2 -y1)x1 -(x2 -x1)y1

For points (-2, -2) and (16, 4), this equation is ...

(4 -(-2))x -(16 -(-2))y = (4 -(-2))(-2) -(16 -(-2))(-2)

6x -18y = -12 +36

Dividing by the greatest common factor (6), we have the standard-form equation ...

x -3y = 4
