Answer:

x = 5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

5x : 8 = 7 : 2 \\  \frac{5x}{8}  =  \frac{7}{2}  \\  \\ cross \:  \: multiple \\ 10x = 8 \times 7 \\ 10x = 56 \\  \frac{10x}{10}  =  \frac{56}{10}  \\ x = 5.6

1/2 of the people in the clinic are men, 1/3 are elderly, how many people are not elderly or men?
Nostrana [21]

1/6 of the people are not elderly or men

<h3>How to determine the proportion?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Men = 1/2

Elderly = 1/3

The number of people that are not elderly or men are:

People = 1 - Men - Elderly

So, we have:

People = 1 - 1/2 - 1/3

Evaluate

People = 1/6

Hence, 1/6 of the people are not elderly or men

Find the value of x from this adjoining figure
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

x=15^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached figure for labeling of given diagram:

We are given the following angles:

\angle AOC = 3x^\circ\\\angle BOD = 2x^\circ\\\angle EOF = 7x^\circ

Angles opposite to each other when they are formed by crossing of two lines are known as vertically opposite angles. And vertically opposite angles are always equal to each other.

Using property of vertically opposite angles:

\angle EOF = \angle AOB = 7x^\circ

Line CD is a straight line, so \angle COD = 180^\circ

Also,

\angle COD = \angle COA+\angle AOB+\angle BOD = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 3x + 7x + 2x=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 12x =180^\circ\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{180}{12}\\\Rightarrow x = 15^\circ

Hence, <em>answer</em> is x = 15^\circ.

plz help me out it would be a prouder I don't know these tuitions pls help me I will give u 100 points and mark u brainliest 1,2
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

1)  =  H

2)  =  0,4

4)  =  S

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  H is found by counting across the horizontal (axis) as x and then downwards the vertical axis for y  as y is a negative we find H for y at ( y = -5 )

But when we always read left to right we start with x first at 3 across. (x= 3) as this is the same as (3,-5)

2)  We find x, y at  (0,4) as 0 is middle of the two axis as they cross each other and 4 goes upwards. x= 0 y =4 = (0,4)

4) S is found as it is a refection of (8,-4) across the y axis.

(x = -8) is still x but it is valued as negative in y  as (x = -8)

Then (y = -4) so it stays the same height as y and represents vertical axis line which is called y axis.

And so y reflects the same height.

But in all the others y represents vertical measure generally.

Whilst x represents horizontal measure generally. they both meet at a point which represents two values generally, like cost and time, network output and population, or cupcakes sales and duration/time.

When a single card is drawn from an ordinary 52-card deck, find the probability of getting a 2 or a red card?
kipiarov [429]
Let R be the event that a red card is drawn. There are two red suits of 13 cards each, so there are 26 ways of getting are red card. There are 52 cards altogether, so the probability of getting a red card is P(R) = 26 52 = 1 2 .
