Hey!

-------------------------------------------------

Solution:

The ratio is FEMALES to MALES.

So its 18/16, 18:16, or 18 to 16.

~Now we need to simplify.

18:16 → 18/2:16/2 → 9:8

*Note* When you have a ratio you need to know which comes first. If you put males to females that incorrect. It has to be correct according to the question.

-------------------------------------------------

Answer:

\large\boxed{B)~9~to~8}

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

Answer:

x = 58 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle K (which is x) and Angle I are congruent corresponding angles with one another, so if, as an example, Angle I was 10, Angle K would also be 10.

<u><em>All you need to do in this case is add Angle H (56) and Angle A (66) together:</em></u>

56 + 66 = 122

<u><em>Then subtract 122 from 180 (because triangles add up to 180 degrees) to get x:</em></u>

180 - 122 = 58

So, x = 58 degrees.

Find the volume of the largest rectangular box in the first octant with three faces in the coordinate planes and one vertex in t
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y + 3z = 12

z=\frac{12-x-2y}{3}

Volume = V=f(x,y) = xy(\frac{12-x-2y}{3} )

find partial derivatives using product rule

f_x =\frac{y}{3} (12-2x-2y)\\f_y = \frac{x}{3} (12-x-4y)

i.e.

Using maximum for partial derivatives, we equate first partial derivative to 0.

y=0 or x+y =6

x=0 or x+4y =12

Simplify to get y =2, x = 4

thus critical points are (4,2) (6,0) (0,3)

Of these D the II derivative test gives

D<0 only for (4,2)

Hence maximum volume is when x=4, y=2, z= 4/3

Max volume is = 4(2)(4/3) = 32/3

Which numbers should replace the question marks?
slava [35]

The first missing number in the sequence is 35, and the last missing number is 77.

<h3>Next number of the given sequence</h3>

The two missing numbers in the given sequence is calculated as follows;

= ?    49     63    ?

The given sequence is factor 7 which increases by 2

= 7 x 5      7 x 7       7 x 9     7 x 11

= 35         49          63          77

Thus, the first missing number in the sequence is 35, and the last missing number is 77.
