Let number of senators = x, then:-

number of representatives = 5x - 25  so

x + 5x - 25 = 515
6x = 540
x = 90  
number of reps =  515 - 90 = 425

so there are 90 senators and 425 representatives.

What are rational numbers and how do you tell the difference between integers? Please answer what are rational numbers first.
Maslowich

1. A rational number is a number that can be written as a fraction.

For example: 1/3, 5/7, 90/666, etc

Note: Any integer can be written as a fraction.

Look:

5 = 5/1 = rational

-14 = -14/1 = rational

2. There is no difference between a rational and integer.

How many points do you need in order to name a ray?<br> O<br> one<br> four<br> о<br> three<br> two
yawa3891 [41]
<h3>Answer: D) Two</h3>

You need the starting point, and another point that helps direct where the ray is aimed. Call these two points A and B.

Saying "Ray AB" means we extend a line through AB such that the line goes forever through B and beyond B, but we do not do the same for point A. The point A is effectively a cliff where no road goes on the other side of it. Check out the diagram below to see what I mean. The arrow means the line goes on forever in that direction.

P(x) = x4 − 9x2 − 4x 12? what some roots
arlik [135]
P(x) = x^4 - 9x^2 - 4x + 12
P(1) = 1^4 - 9(1)^2 - 4(1) + 12 = 1 - 9 - 4 + 12 = 0
x = 1 is a root.
By dividing the polynomial by x - 1, gives other roots as 3 and -2

Please help I dont understand​
Kitty [74]

Answer:

3rd option

Step-by-step explanation:

A direct variation is expressed in this form:

y = kx

1. y - 4x = 8

y = 4x + 8 is not a direct variation

2. y + 2 = 7x

y = 7x - 2 is not a direct variation

3. y - 3x = 0

y = 3x is a direct variation

4. y = 5x - 2

y = 5x - 2 is not direct variation

leonid [27]
Hello! So for this question, all you have to do is add the numbers up to get the total cost. Groceries were $102.34 and the new shoes were $53.36. 102.34 + 53.36 = 155.7. Lorena spent $155.70 total.
