Answer:

  E)  176

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in ratio units is 5 -3 = 2. If one ratio unit changes sides, the ratio will be 4 : 4, or 1 : 1. Then one ratio unit represents 22 group members.

There are a total of 5+3 = 8 ratio units, so there are ...

  8 × 22 = 176

people in the group.

_____

<em>Check</em>

The original group has 5 × 22 = 110 Yankees fans and 3 × 22 = 66 Dodgers fans, for a total of 110+66 = 176 group members. If 22 switch sides, there will be 110-22 = 88 Yankees fans and 66+22 = 88 Dodgers fans, making the ratio ...

  88 : 88 = 1 : 1

The slope of the line between two points is known as the rate of change in the relation.
borishaifa [10]
Slope=rise/run or changeiny/changeinx or (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) or (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)



so

pick any 2 points
(x,y)
(0,17) and (1,23)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
so
(23-17)/(1-0)=6/1=6
slope is 6

Someone please help i am very confused.
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Rectangle A's length = 22 ft., Rectangle B's length = 44 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that the length of Rectangle B is twice the length of Rectangle A, we know that 2*(3x + 7) = Rectangle B's length.

We must set this equation to the dimensions already given for Rectangle B, which gives us 2(3x + 7) = 2 (5x - 3).

Using the distributive property gives us 6x + 14 = 10x - 6 and solving for x gives us x = 5.

We must plug five into the original dimensions to find that the lengths of Rectangles A and B are 22 feet and 44 feet respectively.
