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

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line y = 1?
Viktor [21]
Y = 1

Using y = mx + c.

Compare to y = 1,    y = 0x + 1 ,

We can see that the slope m = 0 and the vertical intercept, c = 1.

For the line perpendicular to  y = 1

Condition for perpendicularity  m₁m₂ = -1

m₁ = 0,  m₂ = ?

0*m₂ = -1

m₂ = -1/0 = Negative Infinite or Infinite

Slope of line perpendicular to y = 1, is  = Infinite.

You invested a total of $9,000 at 4 1/2 % and 5% simple interest. During one year, the two accounts earned $435. How much did yo
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The amount invested at 4.5% was \$3,000

The amount invested at 5% was \$6,000

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

I=P(rt)

where

I is the Final Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest  

t is Number of Time Periods

Let

x -----> the amount invested at 4.5%

9,000-x -----> the amount invested at 5%

in this problem we have

t=1\ year\\ P1=\$x\\ P2=\$(9,000-x)\\I=\$435\\r1=0.045\\r2=0.05

substitute

435=x(0.045*1)+(9,000-x)(0.05*1)

435=0.045x+450-0.05x

0.05x-0.045x=450-435

0.005x=15

x=\$3,000

so

9,000-x=\$6,000

therefore

The amount invested at 4.5% was \$3,000

The amount invested at 5% was \$6,000
