Answer:

\dfrac{9}{35} is the fraction of 8th graders who are boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of 8th graders = x

Given that, \frac{3}{7} of 8th graders play sports

\Rightarrow 8th graders who play sports = \frac{3}{7} \times x

Also, Given that, \frac{3}{5} of 8th graders that play sports are boys

Number of 8th graders that play sports, and are boys = \frac{3}{5} \times \text{Number of 8th graders who play sports}

\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{5} \times \dfrac{3}{7} \times x\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{9}{35} \times x

Hence, the answer is:

\dfrac{9}{35} is the fraction of 8th graders who are boys.

Find all cube roots of -1000i
NemiM [27]

Answer:

10i

Step-by-step explanation:

Since i^2 = -1, and 1000 = 10^3, we can instinctively guess that the answer is 10i. We can validate this by cubing it, yielding 1000i^3, or -1000i.

An element with mass 510 grams decays by 26.3% per minute. How much of the element is remaining after 7 minutes, to the nearest
Eddi Din [679]

A decay rate of 26.3% per minute means that for every minute that passes, there remains 73.7% of the amount of the substance available at the end of the previous minute.

If a_0 is the starting amount, and a_i is the amount left after i minutes, then

a_1=0.737a_0

a_2=0.737a_1=0.737^2a_0

a_3=0.737a_2=0.737^3a_0

and so on, such that

a_7=0.737^7a_0

We have a_0=510 grams at the start, so after 7 minutes we're left with

a_7=0.737^7(510)\approx60.2\,\rm g
