Ruby conducted a survey and found the 5/6 of her classmates have a pet and 2/3 of those pets are dogs.what fraction of her class
Pie
To determine the fraction of her classmates with dogs as pets, we simply multiply the two given fractions based from the survey. 

                                       Pets = (2/3)(5/6) = 5/9

Thus, there are 5/9 of Ruby;s car.

Answer:          410 possible points

To solve for the possible points in the course, use a proportion and cross multiply.

<h2>What is a proportion?</h2>

A proportion is two fractions that are equal to each other. For the fractions to be equal, they are proportionate. In our math problem, percentage is proportionate the the number of points.

The fractions represent information you have, and one variable will represent what you are solving for.

<h2 /><h3>Given</h3>

Your points = 361

Points to get an 'A' = your points + 8

'A' = 90% of possible points

<h3>Find the points needed for an 'A' at 90%</h3>

Points to get an 'A' = your points + 8

= 361 + 8

= 369

<h3>State variables</h3>

let <em>x</em> be the amount of possible points

<h3 /><h3>Write a proportion</h3>

We know the number of points for 90% is 369 points. Remember that 90% is the same as 90/100.

Keep the information with the same units inside the same fraction. Here, percentage is represented by the first fraction. Points is represented by the second fraction.

\displaystyle{\frac{90}{100}=\frac{369}{x}}

<h3>Solve</h3>

We can solve using cross multiplication. This is when we multiply each numerator by the denominator from the other fraction.

90x = 369*100        Simplify by multiplying.

90x = 36,900            Isolate the variable <em>x</em>.

\displaystyle{\frac{90x}{90} = \frac{36,900}{90}}           Divide both sides by 90 to cancel out 90 on the left.

\displaystyle{x = \frac{36,900}{90}}              Divide.

x = 410                    Solved for <em>x</em>, representing the possible points.

∴ The possible points in the art course is 410.

Consider the function y = x2 − 18x. Enter the values for the variables to complete the inverse.
ollegr [7]
<span>In the function "y=x2-18x" the goal is to find the value of the letter x. We know that y equals x2-18x. First, recognize that x2 is the same thing as 2x. So changing the problem to "y=2x-18x". We can subtract 18x from 2x, which leaves us with -16x. Now the problem looks like this: y=-16x. In order to get x by itself, we will need to do the same thing to both sides of the equation. In this case, we want the answer to be x by itself, or (1x) which is the same thing. We divide both sides of the equation by (-16). We are left with the following: y/-16=x. Basically, in words, x equals y divided by negative 16.</span>

Using a Celsius scale, water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C. Using a Fahrenheit scale, water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212
natulia [17]
Y= (x(9/5)) + 32; Ex: y=(100(9/5)) + 32 —> 100 x 1.8 (or 9/5) = 180–> 180 + 32= 212 F
