Answer:

x is any number less than -64; i.e. -66

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequality

3x + 23y - 15 < 0

where point (x,9) satisfies this

Substitute 9 for y

3x + 23(9) - 15 < 0

3x + 207 - 15 < 0

3x + 192 < 0 Take away 192 from both sides

3x < -192 Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x

x < -64

Check:

3(-64) + 23(9) -15 < 0

-192 + 207 - 15 < 0

-192 + 192 < 0

Therefore x must be less that -64 to satisfy the point (x, 9) in this inequality.

If the 10th of the 10 consecutive numbers is 10, what is their sum?

liq [111]

Represent these consecutive numbers (assuming that they are all integers):

x
x+1
x+2
x+3
x+4
x+5
and so on
x+8
x+9 is the tenth number. x+9 = 10, so x = 9.

Think of it this way: there are 10 consecutive numbers, and the last one is 10.

Working backwards, we get the sequence 10, 9, ... 3, 2, 1.

The sum of such an arith sequence is equal to the count of the numbers times the average of the first and last terms:

sum here = 10(1+10)/2 = 5(11) = 55 (answer)

How many ways can a dance instructor send 4 of her 11 students to a summer dance program?

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

d) 330

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways can a dance instructor send 4 of her 11 students to summer dance program is C(11 , 4)

That is $11_{C_{4} }$ ways

by using formula $n_{C_{r} } = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

now simplification

$11_{C_{4} } = \frac{11!}{(11-4)!4!}$

= $\frac{11X10X9X8X7!}{(7!)4X3X2X1}$

after cancelling 7! and on simplification

= $\frac{11X10X9X8}{4X3X2X1}$

after cancellation we get 330 ways

The number of ways can a dance instructor send 4 of her 11 students to summer dance program is 330

Graph the line that represents a proportional relationship between yyy and xxx where the unit rate of change of yyy with respect

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

$y=\frac{4}{3}x$

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m or unit rate of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem we have

$k=\frac{4}{3}$

substitute

$y=\frac{4}{3}x$

using a graphing tool
