PLEASE HELP ASAP!!

Mathematics
1 answer:
NNADVOKAT [17]3 years ago

Answer (the system of equations input doesn't work, so there is no brace):

x = 1.5y

x + y =800

Step-by-step explanation:

First, identify the vital information:

- 800 total students

- 1.5 times as many boys as girls

So, if x = number of boys and y = number of girls, we can agree that:

x = 1.5y

And because there are 800 kids in total, we can agree that:

x + y = 800

There are 320 girls and 480 boys. (see below)

Since you have the value of x, 1.5y, you can plug-in the value:

x + y = 800

1.5 + y = 800

2.5y = 800

y = 320 girls

Plug-in the y-value into the equation for the number of boys:

x = 1.5y

x = 1.5(320)

x = 480 boys

To double-check:

320 + 480 = 800 ☺

What are the scale factor of ABC dilated to XYZ plz help
jekas [21]
<h3>Answer:  B) 2/3</h3>

====================================

Explanation:

The order is important for ABC and XYZ so we can see what letters pair up.

  • A pairs with X since they are the first letters
  • B pairs with Y since they are the second letters
  • C pairs with Z since they are the third letters

Based on that, we can see that AB pairs with XY as they are the first two letters of ABC and XYZ respectively.

Divide the length XY over AB and reduce

XY/AB = 10/15 = 2/3

We could also divide XZ over AC

XZ/AC = 14/21 = 2/3

and we get the same ratio

Which scale will produce the smallest drawing?
Effectus [21]
The scale that will produce the smallest drawing would be b) 1mm:50m.

First, I converted all the measurements to centimeters:

a) 1cm:500cm
b) 0.01cm:5000cm
c) 5cm:1000cm
d) 10cm:2500cm

Then, you divide the scales:

a) 0.002
b) 0.000002
c) 0.005
d) 0.004

B is the smallest number, meaning it will be the smallest scale.
