The class is made up of male and female students.

"A drama class has a total of 26 students"

f + m = 26

"The number of females is 16 less than the number of males"

f = m - 16

Substitute the second equation into the first.

m - 16 + m = 26

- combine like terms -

2m - 16 = 26

- add 16 to both sides -

2m = 42

- divide by 2 -

m = 21

Now substitute that answer into either equation

f + 21 = 26

- subtract both sides by 21 -

f = 5

Remember that whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other

Solve for x using zeros of function method<br>-x³+2x²+x-2=0​
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

x = - 1, x = 1, x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of the polynomial sum to zero, that is

- 1 + 2 + 1 - 2 = 0

This indicates that x = 1 is a zero

let x = - 1, then

- (- 1)³ + 2(- 1)² + (- 1) - 2 = 1 + 2 - 1 - 2 = 0

Thus x = - 1 is a zero

let x = 2

- (2)³ + 2(2)² + 2 - 2 = - 8 + 8 + 2 - 2 = 0

Thus x = 2 is a zero

The 3 zeros are x = - 1, x = 1, x = 2

Find the ordered pairs for the x- and y-intercepts of the equation 3x − 2y = 18 and select the appropriate option below.
olasank [31]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Y intercept:

Simply substitute all the x values with 0:

When x = 0:

3(0) - 2y = 18

Move the - 2y over to the other side making it a +2y:

0 = 18 + 2y

Move the +18 over to the other side making it a -18:

-18 = 2y

Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{-18}{2} = \frac{2y}{2}

-9 = y

So y intercept is:

<h3> (0 , -9)</h3>

X - intercept:

Simply substitute all the Y's with 0:

3x - 3(0) = 18

3x = 18

Divide both sides by 3:

\frac{3x}{3}  = \frac{18}{3}

x = 6

So the X intercept is:

<h3>(6 , 0)</h3>

This means that your guess of B is correct.

ser-zykov [4K]

The sale price S (in dollars) of an item is given by the formula

S=L−rL , where L is the list price (in dollars) and r is the discount rate.

Since, S = L -rL

rL = L -S

r = \frac{L-S}{L}

r = 1-\frac{S}{L}

Since, the listed price of the shirt is $30, we have to find the discount rate.

Therefore, r = 1-\frac{S}{30} is the discount rate.
