Answer:

No. of girls  =25

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of boys: girls = 4:5

No. of boys = 4x

No. of girls = 5x

4x = 20    ( No.of boys = 20)

   x = 20/4

    x = 5

No. of girls = 5x = 5 * 5 =25

1. If 9 students sharpen 18 pencils in 2 minutes, how many students will it take to sharpen 18 pencils in 1 minute?
Ad libitum [116K]
A) If 9 students sharpen 18 pencils in 2 minutes,Then if the time is halved, it will take twice as many men to sharpen 18 pencils.Hence it will take 18 students to sharpen 18 pencils in one minute B) y & 1/x. Then y = K/x where K is our constant of proportionality.Then K = yx. When x = -64 and y = -16 then K = -64 * -16 = 1024. Option DC) When x = 3 y = 8. So for an inverse variation K as calculated from B = 3 * 8 = 24.Then when K = 24 and y = 6; we have 24 = 6x. Hence x = 4. Option A

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the linear function that is represented by the equation y=-10x+1?
Alenkasestr [34]
Linear functions can be written in the form y=mx+b, where:
y is a y coordinate on the line
m is the slope of the line
x is the x coordinate on the line that corresponds with the y coordinate in the equation
b is the y-intercept of the line

So for the equation y=-10x+1:
m=-10 and b=1 so the slope of the line is -10, and the y-intercept is 1. Your answer is B.
