Answer:

88

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets call L the number if lecturers and P the professors. As all of them together sum 136:

P + L = 136

Then, as for every 11 lecturers they have 6 professors, we know that:

6 P = 11 L

If we divide both sides of this equation by 6:

6P / 6 = 11L / 6

P = (11/6)L

So we have the equivalence of 1 Professor in Lecturers. If we replace this equation on our first equation:

P + L = 136

(11/6) L + L = 136 or what is the same:

(11/6) L + (6/6) L = 136

(11+6)/6 L = 136

17/6  L = 136

If we multiply both sides by 6/17

(17/6) L * (6/17) = 136 * 6/17

L = 48

So, we replace the number of lecturers to find P:

P + L = 136

P = 136 - L

P = 136 - 48

P = 88

The college employs 88 professors

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope intercept form
yan [13]

The equation of the given line is y = 5/6x - 2

The standard equation of a line in slope-intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + b

m is the slope of the line

b is the y-intercept

Using the coordinate point (0, -2) and (-6, 3)

Slope m = 3-(-2)/-6-0

m = 5/6

Since the line cuts the y-axis at y = -2, hence the y-intercept is -2.

Find the equation of a line;

y = mx + b

y = 5/6x + (-2)

y = 5/6x - 2

Hence the equation of the given line is y = 5/6x - 2
