Hello there.
Question: <span>Mr. Nicolas is putting up strings of blue and white lights for the holidays. The ratio of blue to white lights is 5 to 6. If he has 77 strings, how many strings are white lights?
Answer: 5:6
Add the numbers:
5 + 6 = 11
Divide this number by the total:
77/11 = 7
Multiply values by this number:
5 x 7 = 35
6 x 7 = 42
To check:
35 + 42 = 77.
Therefore your answer is 42.
</span>Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^
Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
12x − 18y = 27
4x − 6y = 10
Multiply the second equation by -3 so we can eliminate x
-3(4x − 6y) = 10*-3
-12x +18y = -30
Add the first equation to this new equation
12x − 18y = 27
-12x +18y = -30
------------------------
0 = -3
This is not a true equation, so there is no solution
Answer:
2.8
Step-by-step explanation:
1) find the mean of the data set. = 15
2) find the abs value of the diff between each data value and the mean: |data value – mean|.
|10-15|=5, |20-15|=5, |15-15|=0, |17-15|=2, |13-15|=2
3) find the sum of the abs values of the diff = 14
4) divide the sum of the abs value by the number of data values = 14/5 = 2.8
The equation factors as
.. (x +3)(x +4) = 0
By the zero-product rule, the roots are
.. x1 = -4
.. x2 = -3
- Increase = 20 - 15 = 5 points
