Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 of the class are girls

While 2/5 of the boys play tennis.

If none of the girls play tennis, then we have exactly 2/5 of only the boys who play tennis as fraction of the class that play tennis.

But if a fraction of the girls play tennis, that fraction would have been added to the fraction of the boys who play tennis. But since, There are no girls who play tennis, none would be added, therefore the fraction remains 2/5 of the class

Find the slope and y-intercept of the line through the points (-3,-4) and (0,-1)​
Alja [10]

Answer:

Slope=1, y-intercept=-1.

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-1-(-4))/(0-(-3))

m=(-1+4)/(0+3)

m=3/3

m=1

y-(-4)=1(x-(-3))

y+4=x+3

y=x+3-4

y=x-1

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept

so you have slope of 1 and y-intercept of -1

If x 60 and 30 find the unknown sizes of angle​
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

A special right triangle is a right triangle having angles of 30, 60, 90, or 45, 45, 90. Knowledge of the ratio of the length of sides of a special right triangle enables us to solve for any missing part of the triangle. The ratio of the side lengths of a special right triangle with angles of 30, 60, 90 is 1:sqrt(3):2, while the ratio of the side lengths of a special right triangle with angles of 45, 45, 90 is 1:1:sqrt(2).

Bill, bob, and barry are hired to paint signs. in 8 hours bill can paint 1 sign, bob can paint 2 signs, and barry can paint 1 an
OLEGan [10]
Define rates at which the individuals paint.
Bill:  x = 1/8  signs/h
Bob: y = (2 signs)/(8 h) = 1/4  signs/h
Barry: z = (4/3 signs)/(8 h) = 1/6 signs/h

The job is to paint 2 signs, working together.

In the first 3 hours, the amount painted is
(x+y+z signs/h)*(3 h) = (1/8 + 1/4 + 1/6)*3 = 13/8 signs
Remaining: 2 - 13/8 = 3/8 signs

Barry quits.
In the next 1/2 hour (30 minutes), the amount painted is
(x + y signs/h)*(0.5 h) = (1/8 + 1/4)*0.5 = 3/16 signs
Remaining: 3/8 - 3/16 = 3/16 signs

Now Bob quits.
The time for Bill to finish the job is
(3/16  signs)/(1/8 signs/h) = 3/2 h

Answer: Bill finishes the job in 1.5 hours (or 1 hour, 30 minutes)
