Answer:

128 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

boys : girls = 5 : 8

Number of boys  = 5x

Number of girls = 8x

Total students  = 208

5x + 8x = 208

       13x = 208

           x = 208/13

x =  16

Number of girls = 8x = 8 * 16 = 16 * 8

                         = 128

Halle has 10 times as many pages to read for her homework assignment as Janet altogether they have to read 264 pages how many pa
statuscvo [17]
Think of the equation as the 10 times as parts so if Halle read ten times as more than Janet then we do the equation 264/11 because we have to include Janet's part too so Janet read 24, one part of the total while Halle read 240, 10 parts of the total

What is the percentage of cacao in hot chocolate which is made of 480 grams of milk and 20 grams of cacao?
galina1969 [7]

Given that the hot chocolate is made of 480 grams of milk and 20 grams of cacao.

We need to determine the percentage of cacao in hot chocolate.

<u>The percentage of cacao:</u>

The total grams of hot chocolate can be determined by adding the total grams of milk and the total grams of cacao.

Total grams of hot chocolate = Grams of Milk + Grams of cacao

Total grams of hot chocolate = 480 + 20 = 500 grams.

Thus, the total grams of hot chocolate is 500 grams.

Now, we shall find the percentage of cacao.

The percentage of cacao is given by

\frac{100}{500}\times 20

Simplifying, the values, we get,

\frac{2000}{500}=4\%

Thus, the percentage of cacao is 4%

PLEASE HELP Which expression represents the difference quotient of the function f (x) = negative StartRoot 2 x EndRoot?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

c is the correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

from,

f'(x) = h >0 <u>f</u><u>(</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>h</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>f</u><u>(</u><u>x</u><u>)</u><u> </u>

h

f(x) = - √2x

f(x + h) = - √(2x + h)

f'(x) = h>0 <u>-</u><u>√(2x + h) - √2x</u>

h

rationalize the denominator

= h>0 <u>-</u><u>√</u><u>(</u><u>2</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>h</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>√</u><u>2</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>-</u><u>√</u><u>(</u><u>2</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>h</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>√</u><u>2</u><u>x</u><u>)</u>

h (-√(2x + h) - √2x)

= h>0 <u>4</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>h</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>4</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

h(-√(2x + h) -√2x)

= h>0 <u>2</u><u>h</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

h(-√(2x+h) - √2x)

= h>0 <u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

-√(2x+h) - √2x

A field is a rectangle with a perimeter of 1220 feet. The length is 100 feet more than the width. Find the width and length of t
rosijanka [135]
To start, let x represent the width and x+100 represent the length. Since the perimeter of a figure is the sum of all the measurements of the side which can be represented by (x+100)+(x+100)+x+x and since you know your perimeter is 1220, you can set the expression equal to 1220. This would look like this:
(x+100)+(x+100)+x+x=1220

Once you have done that, combine any like terms (combine terms with the same variables and raised to the same power together) which would simplify to this:
4x+200=1220

Now that you have your like terms simplified, subtract 200 from both sides to get 4x=1020 and finally, to solve for x, or find the width, divide both sides by 4 to get x=255.

Now that you have your width, now you must find your length as the question asks to find the dimensions of the rectangular field. To find the length, add 100 to the width, 255 since according to the information given, the length is 100 more than the width. When you add 100 to 255, you should get that your length is 355. 

Now that you have your length and width, you can conclude that the dimensions of the field is 255 by 355 feet, which is your answer :)
