Answer=7:13

Kenny's Weight*6/7=Melvin's Weight

So, for example, if Melvin's weigh was 7...

Kenny's Weight*6/7=7
divide both sides by 6/7
Kenny Weight=6

So we can say that Melvin's weight to Kenny's weight is 7:6

The boys total weights would be...
7+6=13


So Melvin's weight over the total weight of the two boys is:

7:13

Answer:

\frac{7}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> Melvin's weight

y------> Kenny's weight

we know that

y=\frac{6}{7}x

x+y=x+\frac{6}{7}x=\frac{13}{7}x -----> total weight of the two boys

Find the ratio of Melvin's weight to the total weight of the two boys

ratio=\frac{x}{(\frac{13}{7}x)} =\frac{7}{13}

Answer:

<h2>b = 15°</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If Pq = RQ then ΔPQR is the isosceles triangle. The angles QPR and PRQ have the same measures.

We know: The sum of the measures of the angeles in the triangle is equal 180°. Therefore we have the equation:

m∠QPR + m∠PRQ + m∠RQP = 180°

We have

m∠QPR = m∠PRQ and m∠RQP = 60°

Therefore

2(m∠QPR) + 60° = 180°       <em>subtract 60° from both sides</em>

2(m∠QPR) = 120°           <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

m∠QPR = 60° and m∠PRQ = 60°

Therefore ΔPRQ is equaliteral.

ΔPSR is isosceles. Therefore ∠SPR and ∠PRS are congruent. Therefore

m∠SPR = m∠PRS

In ΔAPS we have:

m∠SPR + m∠PRS + m∠RSP = 180°

2(m∠SPR) + 90° = 180°            <em>subtract 90° from both sides</em>

2(m∠SPR) = 90°             <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

m∠SPR = 45° and m∠PRS = 45°

m∠PRQ = m∠PRS + b

Susbtitute:

60° = 45° + b           <em>subtract 45° from both sides</em>

15° = b

Solve for x: 3-(2x-5)&lt;-4(x+2)
trapecia [35]
3-(2x-5)=-4(x+2)

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
3-(2x-5)=-4(x+2)

Remove unnecessary parentheses
3-2x+5=-4*(x+2)

Reorder the terms in parentheses
3-2x+5=+(-4x-8)

Remove unnecessary parentheses
+3-2x+5=-4x-8

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.
-2x+4x=-8-3-5

We simplify left and right side of the equation.
+2x=-16

We divide both sides of the equation by 2 to get x.
x=-8

The given diagram is a scatter plot in which temperature is plotted against number of visitors.

As the number of visitors is rising with the rise in temperature, its a positive correlation.

As joining the dots is going to give a web of line segments, it is not going to be helpful to understand the trends.

The best way to understand the trends is to make the line of best Fit in such a way that the number of dots on either side are approximately the same.

I have attached the figure for your reference of the line of best fit.
