Answer:

5 males : 4 females

40 males : X females

5/40 =4/X

(cross multiplication)

5x = 4*40

5x = 160

(divide both sides by 5)

X = 32

therefore, there are 32 females at the camp

Which of the following is the equation of a line parallel to the line y=-x+1 passing through the point (4,1)
Softa [21]
Y=-x+b

plug in x = 4 and y = 1  to find b

1 = -4 + b   and we know that if you add 5 and -4 you get 1. So ...

5 = b so if we plug that in

y= -x + 5

which is the same as y + x = 5,  So it would be A

Darina [25.2K]
We have that
solution is
x <-10 or x>=25

for
x < -10
the solution is the interval (-∞, -10)

and 
for 
x>=25
the solution is the interval [25,∞)

therefore
the solution for
x <-10 or x>=25
is
(-∞, -10)  ∪ [25,∞)

<span>the solution is any value of x less than -10 or greater than or equal to 25</span>
