Answer:

The ratio of sixth-grade students to fifth-grade students on the team was <u>7 : 8</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The girl's basketball team had 8 fifth-grade students and 7 sixth-grade students.

Now, to find the ratio of sixth-grade students to fifth-grade students on the team.

<em>Number of fifth-grade students = 8.</em>

<em>Number of sixth-grade students = 7.</em>

Now, to get the ratio of sixth-grade students to fifth-grade students on the team :

Number\ of\ sixth-grade\ students:Number\ of\ fifth-grade\ students

=7:8.

Therefore, the ratio of sixth-grade students to fifth-grade students on the team was 7 : 8.

Identify the slope and y-intercept of the line whose equation is given. write the y-intercept as an ordered pair. y = negative 2
PSYCHO15rus [73]

The line having the equation, y = -2x + 5, has a slope = -2, and y-intercept = (0, 5). Thus, <u>option A</u> is the best choice.

The slope of a line is the tangent of the angle that the line makes with the positive side of the x-axis.

The y-intercept of a line is the point at which the line intersects the y-axis.

The standard form of a line is <u>y = mx + b</u>, where m represents the slope of the line, and b represents its y-intercept.

In the question, we are asked to identify the slope and the y-intercept of the line whose equation is y = -2x + 5.

Comparing the given equation of the line, y = -2x + 5, with the standard equation of a line, y = mx + b, we can say that,

m = -2, and b = 5.

Representing b as an ordered pair, we get (0, 5), as b represents the y-intercept which is a point on the y-axis, where the x-coordinate is always equal to zero.

Thus, we get the slope = -2, and the y-intercept = (0, 5).

The option representing the answer is <u>option A</u>.

1. (a) for Y axis, put x=0 in the equation of the line to get: y=3(0)+5

y=5 at P

(B) Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope. Given slope m= 3 (from y=mx+b)
therefore the equation of the line parallel to the given line is:

y= 3x+b

Among the eighth-graders in Micheal's school, 70% have siblings. The eighth-grade class is 5/6 the size of the seventh-grade cla
sladkih [1.3K]

OK so if 70% of students in 8th grade have siblings and 112 8th graders have siblings, then:


0.7(total 8th graders) = 112

total 8th graders = 112/0.7

total 8th graders = 160


And since the number of 8th graders is 5/6 the size of the 7th grade class:

5/6(7th grade class) = 160

5(7th grade class) = 960

7th grade class = 192.

<span>The correct answer is D) 192.</span>
