The school you want to go to has an acceptance rate of 15%. That means that 15% of the students who apply to the school get in.

The school took in 1,800 students last year. How many students applied?

Two angles are complementary. The first angle is 2x degrees. The second angle is (3x +5) degrees. Determine the measure of each

bixtya [17]

Answer:

70 and 110

Step-by-step explanation:

First angle -- 2x

Second angle -- 3x + 5

Therefore,

2x + 3x + 5 = 180

5x = 175

x = 35

Therefore, 2x -- 70

3x + 5 -------------110

Thenks and mark me brainliest :)

Determine the equation

sergejj [24]

Answer:

$y=\frac{3}{4} x-\frac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

two points on the line are

(-1, -2)

(-5, -5)

The slope:

$m=\frac{-2-(-5)}{-1-(-5)} =\frac{-2+5}{-1+5} =\frac{3}{4}$

The equation:

with (-1,-2)

$y-(-2)=\frac{3}{4} (x-(-1))$

$y+2=\frac{3}{4} x+\frac{3}{4}$

$y=\frac{3}{4} x+\frac{3}{4} -\frac{8}{4}$

$y=\frac{3}{4} x-\frac{5}{4}$

Hope this helps

a line that includes the point (3,4) has a slope of 2. what is the equation in the slope-intercept form?

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

y=2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>the slope is y/x</em>

the slope is 2 or 2/1

<em>subtract 2 from the y value and 1 from the x value</em>

(3-1,4-2) = (2,2)

<em>keep doing this until you get a 0 in the x value</em>

(2-1,2-2) = (1,0)

<em>1 is your x-intercept</em>

(1-1,0-2) = (0,-2)

-2 is your y intercept.

So now you know your y-intercept and your slope so you can now write your equation.

<em>y=mx+b</em>

<em>m=slope, b=y-intercept</em>

m=2, b=-2

<em>substitute into the equation</em>

y=2x-2

Jaime has 8/10 of a candy bar left over. He wants to split it into 1/3 pieces.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

2 pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify how many pieces he can split with 8/10 of a candy bar, divide 8/10 by 1/3.

<u>Divide 8/10 by 1/3:</u>

$\frac{8}{10} / \frac{1}{3}=$

<u>Find the Ricipricol, then flip the sign:</u>

$\frac{8}{10} (\frac{3}{1} )=$

<u>Multiply:</u>

<u /> $\frac{8}{10} (\frac{3}{1})=\frac{24}{10} =\frac{2.4}{1}$

2.4 represents how many pieces of chocolate he can make with 8/10 of a candy bar.

However, 2.4 pieces can't be made, therefore he can only make 2 <u>full</u> pieces.
