Mrs. Rodriquez has 24 students in her class. Ten of the students are boys. Jeff claims that the ratio of boys to girls in this c

lass must be 5:12. What is Jeff’s error and how can he correct it? Jeff found the ratio of the number of boys to the total number of students. He needed to first find that there are 14 girls to get a ratio of 10:14 or 5:7. Jeff found the ratio of the number of boys to the total number of students. He needed to first find that there are 14 girls. The ratio would be 14:10 or 7:5. Jeff did not write the ratio in the correct order. He should have written it as 24:10. Jeff did not write the ratio in the correct order. He should have written it as 12:5.

Help please on this problem
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

7.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model an equation for this problem.

We can write:

F=mt

Where

F is the final temperature (15 degrees we need)

m is the rate of temperature change (2 degrees per hour)

and

t is the time, in hours, it will take (we need to find this)

It is given,

F = 15

m = 2

So, t would be:

F = mt

15 = 2t

t = 15/2 = 7.5

So it will take 7.5 hours

Suppose the graph of a cubic polynomial function has the same zeroes and passes through the coordinate (0, -5). Write the equati
amid [387]
In this we know all three zeros and one point from which the graph pass.
So we will let specific cubic polynomial function of the form
f(x) = a(x - x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)

As we know zeros are that point where we will get value of function equal to zero. So it is basically in form (x_n , 0)

SO in given question zeros are (2 , 0) , (3, 0) and (5,0)
So we can say x_1 = 2 , x_2 = 3 , x_3 = 5

So required equation is
f(x) = a (x-2)(x-3)(x-5)
              = a[(x^2 - 2x - 3x + 6)(x-5)]
              = a[(x^2 - 5x+6)(x-5)]
              = a(x^3 - 5x^2 + 6x- 5x^2 + 25x - 30)
              = a(x^3 - 10x^2+31x-30)
Now we have one point (0 , -5) from which graph passes.
So we say at x = 0 , f(x) = -5
-5= a (0-0+0 - 30)
-5 = -30a
a =  \frac{-5}{-30} =  \frac{1}{6}
So required equation of cubic polynomial is
f(x) =  \frac{1}{6}(x^3 -10x^2+31x-30)

For finding y - intercept we simply plugin x = 0 in given equation.
As we know at x = 0 , value of function is -5.
So y - intercept is -5.
