if the girls are "g" and the boys are "b"

g + b = 13

b = g + 7 <--- 7 more boys than girls

$\bf g+\boxed{g+7}=13\implies 2g=6\implies g=\cfrac{6}{2}\implies g=3\\\\\\\stackrel{\textit{since there are 3 gals}}{b = g+7}\implies b=3+7$

The school newspaper surveyed 100 commuter students and asked two questions. First, students were asked how many courses they we

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Number of courses would best be considered a discrete variable and drive time would be considered a continuous variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Discrete variable:

Countable amounts(0, 1, 2, 3,...)

Continuous variables:

Can be decimal values.

In this question:

The number of courses is a countable amount(0,1,2,3,...), you cant take half a course, for example, so it is discrete. Otherwise, drive time accepts half minutes, for example, 10.5 minutes, so is continuous.

Number of courses would best be considered a discrete variable and drive time would be considered a continuous variable.

What are the equations of the asymptotes of the graph of f(x)=(5/x+7)−8 ?

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

$\mathrm{Vertical}:\:x=0,\:\mathrm{Horizontal}:\:y=-1$

The graph of the function is also attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$\:f\left(x\right)=\left(\frac{5}{x}+7\right)-8\:\:$

$\mathrm{Simplify}\:\frac{5}{x}+7-8:\quad \frac{5}{x}-1$

$\mathrm{Vertical\:asymptotes\:of\:}\frac{5}{x}-1:$

Go over every undefined point x = a and check if at least one of the following statement is true.

$\lim _{x\to a^-}f\left(x\right)=\pm \infty$

$\lim _{x\to a^+}f\left(x\right)=\pm \infty$

$\mathrm{Take\:the\:denominator\left(s\right)\:of\:}\frac{5}{x}-1\mathrm{\:and\:compare\:to\:zero}$

$x=0$

The following points are undefined

$x=0$

$\mathrm{The\:vertical\:asymptotes\:are:}$

$x=0$

$\mathrm{Horizontal\:Asymptotes\:of\:}\frac{5}{x}-1:$

$\mathrm{Check\:if\:at\:}x\to \pm \infty \mathrm{\:the\:function\:}y=\frac{5}{x}-1\mathrm{\:behaves\:as\:a\:line,\:}y=mx+b$

$\mathrm{Find\:an\:asymptote\:for\:}x\to -\infty \::$

$\lim _{x\to -\infty \:}\frac{f\left(x\right)}{x}=\lim _{x\to -\infty \:}\frac{\frac{5}{x}-1}{x}=0$

$\lim _{x\to -\infty \:}f\left(x\right)-mx=\lim _{x\to -\infty \:}\frac{5}{x}-1-0x=-1$

$y=-1$

$\mathrm{Find\:an\:asymptote\:for\:}x\to \infty:$

$\lim _{x\to \infty \:}\frac{f\left(x\right)}{x}=\lim _{x\to \infty \:}\frac{\frac{5}{x}-1}{x}=0$

$\lim _{x\to \infty \:}f\left(x\right)-mx=\lim _{x\to \infty \:}\frac{5}{x}-1-0x=-1$

$y=-1$

$\mathrm{The\:horizontal\:asymptote\:is:}$

$y=-1$

Therefore,

$\mathrm{Vertical}:\:x=0,\:\mathrm{Horizontal}:\:y=-1$

The graph of the function is also attached.

Find three consecutive even integers such that the sum of the first, twice the second, three times the third is -76. What is the

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The numbers are -14,-13 and -12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is </em></u>

Find three consecutive integers such that the sum of the first, twice the second and three times the third is -76. What is the number?

Let

x ----> the first consecutive integer

x+1 ---> the second consecutive integer

x+2 ---> the third consecutive integer

we have that

$x+2(x+1)+3(x+2)=-76$

solve for x

apply distributive property

$x+2x+2+3x+6=-76$

Combine like terms

$6x+8=-76$

subtract 8 both sides

$6x=-76-8$

$6x=-84$

Divide by 6 both sides

$x=-14$

$x+1=-14+1=-13$

$x+2=-14+2=-12$

therefore

The numbers are -14,-13 and -12
