Answer: Hello mate!

You know that 2/5 of the total girls signed up to play softball.

an equal number of the girls signed up to play pitcher, infield, and outfield.

this means that we could divide the 2/5 initial group into 3 equal smaller groups (one for each position)

then the fraction of girls that signed up to play outfield is:

(1/3)*(2/5) = 2/15

then 2/15 of the total girls signed to play softball in the position of outfield.

Okay so lets look at this.

So we have 5/5 girls.

2/5 of them are playing softball.  An equal number of girls signed up to play pitcher, infield, and outfield.  This means that each one is 1/3.

So out of 2/5 of the girls, there is 1/3 of the 2/5 that signed up to play outfield.

The answer can be solved with multiplication of fractions.

2/5 * 1/3 is 2/15.  So 2/15 of the girls in the school signed up to play outfield.

Answer: 2/15 or 0.133

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation below?
Luden [163]

Using factorization method;

x²+13x+40=0

x²+13+40

Find two numbers that you can add together to give the co-efficient of variable x. (I.e 13 for this question). Also, you'll find two numbers that you can multiply with each other to give you the whole number as an answer. (I.e 40 in this question). The two numbers must be the same (i.e the two numbers that will be added to give the co-efficient of x and the two numbers that will be multiplied to give the whole number must be the same two).

The two numbers are +5 and +8

The equation will therefore be = x²+5x+8x+40

You'll then factorize (I.e use a common factor of both values to bracket them)

x(x+5)+8(x+5)

(x+8)(x+5)

x is therefore (x+8=0) or (x+5=0)

x=(x=0-8) or (x=0-5)

x= -8 or x= -5

Using transformation (x-2 y+3) find the new coordinates of (7 -5) brainly
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

(5, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the coordinates (7, -5), 7 is the x-coordinate and -5 is the y-coordinate.

The transformation, (x-2 y+3), states that the x-coordinate, 7, must be subtracted by 2.

When subtracted by two, (7 - 2), the difference is 5.

The transformation, (x-2 y+3), states that the y-coordinate must be increased by 3.

When added by 3, (-5 + 3), the sum is -2.

Therefore, the new coordinates are (5, -2).
