Jose’s school has 426 students. His principal has promised the Student Council that their idea will be carried out if they can g

et at least 25% of the student population to sign a petition. So far, 82 students have signed the petition. Jose used the following steps to write an inequality that can be used to determine the number of student signatures still needed: Step 1. Declare the variable: Let x = the number of student signatures still needed. Step 2. Create a ratio equivalent to StartFraction total number of signatures needed over total number of students in the school EndFraction : StartFraction x + 82 over 426 EndFraction. Step 3. Convert 25% to a decimal: 25% = 0.25. Step 4. Write the inequality: StartFraction x + 82 over 426 EndFraction less-than-or-equal-to 0.25. What is Jose’s error? In Step 1, x should be equal to the total number of students in the school. In Step 2, the ratio should be StartFraction x over 426 EndFraction. In Step 3, the decimal should be 0.025. In Step 4, the inequality should be StartFraction x + 82 over 426 EndFraction greater-than-or-equal-to 0.25.

Answer:

Step 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Jose's Steps are:

Step 1: Declare the variable:

Let x = the number of student signatures still needed.

Step 2: Create a ratio equivalent to:

\dfrac{\text{Total number of signatures needed}}{\text{Total number of students in the school}} =\dfrac{x + 82}{426}.

Step 3: Convert 25% to a decimal:

25% = 0.25.

Step 4: Write the inequality:

\dfrac{x + 82}{426}\leq 0.25

Since they need at least 25% of the student population to sign a petition, In Step 4, the inequality should be:

\dfrac{x + 82}{426}\geq 0.25

Let a, b, c, and d be real numbers with a, c 6= 0. Prove that the lines y = ax+b and y = cx + d have the same x-intercept if and
Monica [59]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have got the lines :

y=ax+b\\y=cx+d

Both lines intercept the x-axis in the point :

I = (i_{1} ,i_{2})

In all point from x-axis the y-component is equal to 0.

I=(i_{1},o)

We replace the I point in the lines equations:

0=a(i_{1})+b \\0=c(i_{1})+d

From the first equation :

0=a(i_{1})+b \\-b=a(i_{1})\\i_{1}=\frac{-b}{a}

From the second equation :

0=c(i_{1})+d\\ -d=c(i_{1})\\i_{1}=\frac{-d}{c}

Then i_{1}=i_{1}

Finally :

\frac{-b}{a}=\frac{-d}{c} \\\frac{b}{a}=\frac{d}{c} \\ad=bc

y = ax + b and y = cx + d have the same x-intercept ⇔ad=bc

Abigail has 16 shoes use repeated subtraction to show how many pairs of shoes Abigail has
erik [133]

Hello!

Here is how we solve this question.

We know that 2 shoes = 1 pair

So we subtract 2 from 16 until we reach 0, and count how many times we subtracted.

16-2=14

14-2=12

12-2=10

10-2=8

8-2=6

6-2=4

4-2=2

2-2=0

After we do repeated subtraction we find that Abigail has 8 pairs of shoes!

Hope this helps you with your question.
