A line with slope of -3 passes through the points ( x , -6 ) and ( -2 , 6 ). What is the missing x-coordinate?

1 answer:

6 0

We can use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1 to find the answer. Therefore, we would have: 6-(-6)/-2-x equalling -3. So, 12/-2-x = -3. We multiply both sides by -2-x and get 12 = -3(-2 - x), then 12 = 6+ 3x. We then get 6 = 3x, and by dividing both sides by 2 we get x = 2.

The band has 30 more members than the school chorale. If each group had 10 more members, the ratio of their membership would be

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

80 members

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the band members be= b and the chorale members= c

Then, according to question, b=c+30 and $\frac{b+10}{c+10}=\frac{3}{2}$

⇒ $2(b+10)=3(c+10)$

⇒ $2b+20=3c+30$

⇒ $2b-3c=30-20$

⇒ $2b-3c=10$

Now, substituting the value of b=c+30, we get

⇒ $2(c+30)-3c=10$

⇒ $2c+60-3c=10$

⇒ $-c=-50$

⇒ $c=50$

Therefore, $b=c+30$

$b=50+30=80$

Therefore, there are 80 members in the band.

If OB= 17 and AB = 30, then OR =

Novay_Z [31]

The correct answer is 8
Because
In triangle ORB
OR=(OB^2-RB^2)^1/2
OR=(17^2-15^2)^1/2
OR=(289-225)^1/2
OR=(64)^1/2
OR=8
RB=AB/2 so I kept its value 15 and ^1/2 refers to square root
