Let the number of adults be x, then number of male students is 1 + 7x and the number of female students is (1 + 7x)/2.
x + 1 + 7x + (1 + 7x)/2 = 82
2x + 2 + 14x + 1 + 7x = 164
23x = 164 - 2 - 1 = 161
x = 161/23 = 7

Therefore, number of male students is 1 + 7(7) = 1 + 49 = 50
and the number of female students is 50/2 = 25.

Answer:

0 zero

Step-by-step explanation:

you must find gf(x) first

g[ f(x) ] = g [ 2 + 1 ]

= 3-2+x which is you sub fx tu g

g [ f (-1) ] = 3-2-1

=0

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of inequalities?
Butoxors [25]

For this case, what we must do is find a point that meets both inequalities.

  • <em>y> -2 </em>
  • <em>x + y <4 </em>

We have then:

For (0,4):

First inequation:

4> -2 (correct)

Second inequality:

0 + 4 <4 (incorrect)

For (1,4):

First inequation:

4> -2 (correct)

Second inequality:

1 + 4 <4 (incorrect)

For (-3,5):

First inequation:

5> -2 (correct)

Second inequality:

-3 + 5 <4 (correct)

Point (-3,5) is system solution

For (-2,-3):

First inequation:

-3> -2 (incorrect)

Answer:

Point (-3.5) is system solution

Write an equation in points-slope form of the line that passes through (7,-6) and has the slope m= 1/2
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:   point-slope form is (y -y_{1} )  = m(x - x_{1} )

9.5 -(-6) = 1/2(0-7)

Step-by-step explanation: You can get a y-intercept by substituting the x and y values from the given coordinate into the slope-intercept form and solve for b.

y = mx + b

-6 = 1/2(7) + b

-6 = 3.5 + b

-9.5 = b  Slope-intercept equation for this question would be  y = x/2 - 9.5

Then use the coordinates of the y-intercept to create the point-slope equation

(-9.5 -[-6]) = 1/2(0-7)
