The number of boys . . . . . B
Twice the number of boys . . . 2B
4 more than twice the number of boys . . . 2B+4

You said that the number of girls is equal to that, so . . .  G = 2B+4

But you also told us what  G  is:  16 = 2B+4

Subtract  4  from each side:  12 = 2B

Divide each side by  2 :  6 = B

There you have it.  There are  6 boys in the club.

Mark gathered data about the number of pink and red flowers that bloomed on several of his flowering shrubs. The scatter plot sh
fgiga [73]

The scatter plot showing data gathered and line of best fit is attached below :

Answer:

69

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression model :

y = 1.73x + 0.0924

Where,

y = number of pink flowers

x = Red flowers

Slope = 1.73

Intercept = 0.0924

The number of pink flower that are predicted to bloom on a shrub of 40 red flowers :

Put x = 40 and calculate the value of y

y = 1.73(40) + 0.0924

y = 69.2 + 0.0924

y = 69.2924

Number of pink flowers = 69

mark ordere wome balloons for a party that she is having.The balloons cost $4.50 each and there is a service fee of $12.The tota
ohaa [14]
A general equation to use for this situation is y = mx + b.

For this question, we can assume that y is total cost, m is cost per balloon, x is the amount of balloons, and b as the service fee; so we can set the equation up:

y = (4.50)x + 12

And we can further plug in the total cost to find the number of balloons purchased for the party:

79.50 = (4.50)x + 12

Now we can solve for x (number of balloons):

67.50 = (4.50)x

x = 15

The total number of balloons purchased for the party is 15.

If (fx)=5x, what is f^-1(x)
zysi [14]

Answer:

x/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the inverse function you need to leave the x alone and then switch variables ( f(x) = y)

f(x) = 5x

y = 5x

y/5 = x

Now that x is alone you switch the x for y and the y for x and you get:

x/5 = y

And this new y is the inverse function of f(x) ( f^-1(x))

f^-1(x) = x/5
