Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the smaller of the two factors of 896 that have the ratio 8:7.
<h3>Setup</h3>
Let x represent the smaller of the two factors (the one we want to find). Then the larger factor is (8/7)x, and their product is ...
x(8/7)x = 896
(8/7)x² = 896
<h3>Solution</h3>
Multiplying by the inverse of the coefficient of x², we have ...
x² = (7/8)(896) = 784
x = √784 = 28 . . . . . . . . take square root
The smaller of the two numbers is 28.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The larger is (8/7)(28) = 32.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
A. because the line of best fit has to be at best fit between the points so is a good approximation of where all the points are heading when you try to predict something.
Take however many boys/girls there are and divide it by how many sports there are... so 250/3= 83 boys per sport and 80 girls per sport.
Answer:
D. x2 + x - 20.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x – 4)(x + 5).
= x(x + 5) -4(x + 5).
= x2 + 5x – 4x – 20.
= x2 + x - 20.
