Answer:
40 students
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, one is given the ratio ( 8 : 3 ), since a ratio is another way of writing a fraction one can rewrite it as;
(8) represent the number of students who want to learn about magnets, and (3) represents the number of students who want to learn about magic tricks.
In the problem, it is also given that 25 more students wanted to learn about magnets compared to magic tricks. If one uses the parameter (x) to represent the factor by which the fraction
is reduced, then one can get the equation;
8x = 3x + 25
Use inverse operations to solve,
8x = 3x + 25
-3x
5x = 25
/5
x = 5
Substitute back in to find out how many students want to learn about magnets,
8x
= 8(5)
= 40
Answer:
Number of gallons of blue paint = 40 gallons
Number of gallons of red paint = 25 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the ratio:
Blue paint : Red paint =
8 : 5
Sum of proportion = 8 + 5 = 13
If the customer need 65 gallons of paint,
a) Number of gallons of blue paint needed =
8/13 × 65 gallons = 40 gallons
b) Number of gallons of red paint needed =
5/13 × 65 gallons = 25 gallons
Therefore:
Number of gallons of blue paint = 40 gallons
Number of gallons of red paint = 25 gallons
Answer:
(4, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a point R (-2,5), if the point R' is described by a translation of 6 units to the rights and 7 units down, then the coordinate of R' will be;
6 units to the rights is towards the positive x axis
7 units down is towards the negative y axis
R' = (-2+6, 5-7)
R' = (4, -2)
Hence the coordinate point of R' on the plane is (4, -2)
-78
Step-by-step explanation:
(7-8)(78)
(-1)(78)=-78
Answer:
y = 2x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
y=kx+1
Substitute the point into the equation
3 = k(1) + 1
3 = k+1
Subtract 1 from each side
3-1 = k
2 = k
y = 2x +1
The slope is 2 and the y intercept is 1
