STEP 1:
Total runners originally= 8
# of runners to receive trophies= 4

8-2 drop outs= 6 runners total now

STEP 2:
= # of trophies ÷ total runners now
= 4/6
simplify by 2
= (4÷2)/(6÷2)
= 2/3 runners

ANSWER: 2/3 of the remaining runners will win a trophy.

Hope this helps! :)

Alexxandr [17]
S + a = 300...s = 300 - a
8s + 12a = 3200

8(300 - a) + 12a = 3200
2400 - 8a + 12a = 3200
-8a + 12a = 3200 - 2400
4a = 800
a = 800/4
a = 200 <==== 200 adult tickets

s = 300 - a
s = 300 - 200
s = 100 <=== 100 student tickets

Which equation in point-slope form contains the point (4, –1) and has slope 3?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

y+1=3(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given a slope of 3 and a point (4,-1).

We need to find the equation of the line in point-slope form

Point-slope form is given as y-y1=m(x-x1), where m is the slope, and (x1,y1) is a point

We have all of the needed information to substitute into the formula

First, let's label the values of everything to avoid any confusion

m=3

x1=4

y1=-1

now substitute into the formula *remember, the formula has SUBTRACTION, and we have a NEGATIVE number, so we'll end up subtracting a negative*

y--1=3(x-4)

simplify

y+1=3(x-4)

That's it!

Hope this helps :)

How many distinct triangles can be formed for which m∠A = 75°, a = 2, and b = 3?
antiseptic1488 [7]
We can use the Sine Law:a / sin A = b / sin B2 / sin 75° = 3 / sin B2 / 0.966 = 3 / sin B  ( after that we will cross multiply )
2 sin B = 3 · 0.9662 sin B = 2.898sin B = 2.898 : 2sin B = 1.499 > 1  ( it is not possible )Answer:  A ) No triangles can be formed.
