Answer: 2 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of boys = 4

Number of girls = 10

Total number of students = total number of boys + total number of girls ,that is

Total number of students = 4 + 10

= 14

Therefore , the ratio in the simplest form that compares number of  boys to total number of students is given by

number of boys : total number of students , that is

4 : 14

which will be

2 : 7 in the simplest form

A ratio is something in math that is used to compare two things. In this question, we can use a ration to compare the boys to total number of students in the class.

Add to find total number of students: 4 + 10 = 14

Now put into a ratio: 4:14

Simplify the ratio by diving with common factors.

4/2:14/2 → 2:7

Final answer ~ 2:7 or 2/7

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

1. determine if the functions are inverse functions
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

<u>Question 1</u>

The function f(x) = x + 6 is one-to-one, so it does have an inverse.

The inverse of +6 is -6, so f^{-1}(x)=x-6

Therefore, g(x) is the inverse of f(x).

<u>Question 2</u>

The function f(x) = -3x -9 is one-to-one, so it does have an inverse.

To find the inverse, replace f(x) with y:

\implies y = -3x -9

Rearrange the equation to make x the subject:

\implies y+9= -3x

\implies x=-\dfrac13(y+9)

\implies x=-\dfrac13y-3

Replace x with f^{-1}(x) and y with x:

\implies f^{-1}(x)=-\dfrac13x-3

Therefore, g(x) is the inverse of f(x).

Ella already knew 5 appetizer recipes before starting culinary school, and she will learn 2 new
Natalija [7]

A = 2w+5

example: on week three, she would have the recipes from the other weeks that you have to account for as well as the extra five

2(3)+5=11 so A would equal 11 by week three.

Use multiplication because it is essentially repeated addition.

2(from week 1) + 2(from week 2) + 2(from week 3) + 5(prior to school) =11

a swimming pool charges £3.60 for entry. you can save 1/3 of entry fee with a membership card. on his first visit, ken spends £5
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

You save ⅓ of entry fee, so you save 1.20 and you pay 2.40. We only really care about the 1.20 reduction. 5 / 1.2 = 4.16 so he must go 5 times to get the 5 back
