Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys : Girls = 7 : 8

Let the number of boy = 7x

The number of girls = 8x

Number of boys after 20% increase = 120% of 7x

                                                            = 1.2 * 7x

                                                             = 8.4 x

                               

Number of girls after 10% increase = 110% of 8x

                                                           = 1.1 * 8x

                                                           = 8.8x                    

After increase in number of boys & girls = 8.4x : 8.8x

                      = 84 : 88    { reduce to simplest form by giving by 4th table}

                     = 21 :  22

Answer:

The answer is "y= -x+7"

Step-by-step explanation:

If \bold{\theta = 135^{\circ}}

point: p=(2,5)

Formula:

\to m= \tan \theta \\\\\to (y-y_1)= m(x-x_1)

\to m= \tan \ 135^{\circ} =  -1\\\\\to x_1= 2\\\\\to y_1=5

Put the value in the above formula:

\to y- 5 = -1(x-2)\\\\\to y- 5 = -x+2\\\\\to x+y = 5+2\\\\\to x+y=7

\to y= -x+7

Rectangle STUV is shown on a coordinate plane. Rectangle STUV with vertices S at negative 7 comma 6, T at negative 2 comma 6, U
rusak2 [61]

The coordinate of the point T after the given transformations is; T''(-2, -4)

<h3>How to carry out Translation Transformations?</h3>

We are given the coordinates of the rectangle STUV as;

S(-7, 6)

T(-2, 6)

U(-2, 1)

V(-7, 1)

Now, we are told that all these coordinates are translated using the transformation rule;  (x, y) → (x − 2, y − 4)

Thus, the new coordinates using this transformation rule are;

S'(-9, 2)

T'(-4, 2)

U'(-4, -3)

V'(-9, -3)

Now, we are told that these new points are  rotated 90° counterclockwise and as such the new coordinates formed will follow the pattern (x, y) → (-y, x).

Thus, our final coordinates are;

S''(-2, -9)

T''(-2, -4)

U''(3, -4)

V''(3, -9)

Thus, the coordinate of the point T after the given transformations is; T''(-2, -4)
