Answer:

There would be 350 girls in the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find this by creating two proportions. the first fraction would be the number of girls out in the sample:

7/12

The second part would be the amount of girls in the whole school. We can set the girls as x since we do not know.

x/600

Now we can set the two equal to each other and cross multiply.

7/12 = x/600

600*7 = 12*x

4200 = 12x

350 = x

I need help ASAP. I'm not good with math.
bonufazy [111]

Given:

The increase in pressure P is the linear function of the depth d.

P(d)=0.445d+14.7

The cost of dinner is $300 and $10 per students.

To find:

The initial value and rate of change and their interpretation.

Find the cost function C where n is the number of students.

Solution:

The slope intercept form of a linear function is

f(x)=mx+b          ...(i)

where, m is rate of change and b is y-intercept or initial value.

We have,

P(d)=0.445d+14.7        ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

m=0.445,b=14.7

The initial value is 14.7. It means, the pressure at sea level is 14.7 pounds psi.

Rate of change is 0.445. It means, the pressure is increasing by 0.445 pounds psi for every feet.

The cost of dinner is $300 and $10 per students.

Let C(n) be the total cost for dinner and n be the number of students.

Fixed cost = $300

Additional cost for 1 student = $10

Additional cost for n student = $10n

Now,

Total cost = Fixed cost + Additional cost

C(n)=300+10n

Therefore, the required cost function is C(n)=300+10n.
