Answer: $\dfrac{49}{99}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

There are 61 boys --> 38 girls

A) 19 chose football: 5 are girls --> 14 are boys

B) 38 girls: 28 chose running, 5 chose football --> 5 girls chose tennis

C) 31 students chose tennis: 5 are girls --> 26 are boys.

D) 61 boys: 14 chose football, 26 chose tennis --> 21 boys chose running.

$\large\boxed{\begin{array}{l|cc||c}&\underline{Boys}&\underline{Girls}&\underline{Total}\\Football&14&5&19\\Tennis&26&5&31\\\underline{Running}&\underline{\quad 21\quad}&\underline{\quad 28\quad}&\underline{\quad 29\quad}\\Total&61&38&99\end{array}}$

Total running = 21 boys + 28 girls = 49

Total students = 99

$\dfrac{\text{Total running}}{\text{Total students}}=\large\boxed{\dfrac{49}{99}}$

There are 25 coins inside a container. Some of the coins are nickels, and the rest are quarters. The value of the coins is $4.05

dem82 [27]

Answer:

n + q = 25
0.05n + 0.25q = 4.05

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Two equations</em> are required to represent this problem as posed.

1. An equation for the number of coins:

n + q = 25

2. An equation for the value of the coins:

0.05n + 0.25q = 4.05

Is the relationship shown by the data linear? If so, model the data with an equation.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Therefore the equation of the line through ( -7 , 5 ) and ( -5 , 9) is

Linear Relationship i.e $y-5=2(x+7)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let,

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( -7, 5 )

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ (-5, 9)

To Find:

Equation of Line AB =?

Solution:

Equation of a line passing through Two points A( x₁ , y₁) and B( x₂ , y₂)is given by the formula

$(y - y_{1} )=(\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} })\times(x-x_{1}) \\$

Substituting the given values in a above equation we get

$(y-(5))=(\frac{9-(5)}{-5--7})\times (x--7)\\ \\(y-5)=\frac{4}{2}(x+7)\\\\y-5=2(x+7)...............\textrm{which is the required equation of the line AB}$

Therefore the equation of the line through ( -7 , 5 ) and ( -5 , 9 ) is

Linear Relationship i.e $y-5=2(x+7)$

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m =(17-4)/(8-1)

m = 13/7

$z=(x+y)e^x$
$\begin{cases}x=3t\\y=2-t^2\end{cases}$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x}\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}$
$\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=(e^x+(x+y)e^x)(3)+e^x(-2t)$
$\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=3(1+x+y)e^x-2te^x$
$\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=3(1+3t+2-t^2)e^{3t}-2te^{3t}$
$\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=3(3+t-t^2)e^{3t}$
