Answer:

x=18

y=24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys in the camp = x

Number of girls = y

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{3}{4}\\x=\frac{3y}{4} -----(A)

Total number of students = 42

x+y=42

Putting value of x from A

\frac{3y}{4}+y=42\\\frac{3y+4y}{4}=42\\\frac{7y}{4}=42\\y=\frac{42 \times 4}{7}\\y=24

Putting this value in A and solving for x

x=\frac{3 \times 24}{4}\\x=18

What is the vertex of this equation y = -x^2+ 3
Svetach [21]

Answer: (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation: To find the x-value of the vertex for any quadratic, you can use the formula -b/2a. In this case, there is no clear b, but you can think of it like y=-x^2 +0x+3 so in the form ax^2 + bx +c, b=0. Therefore the x-value is 0/ -2, or 0. So we know the vertex is (0, y). To find y, just plug 0 into the original equation for x, getting you y=0+3, so y=3, so the vertex is (0,3)

Which ordered pair is a reflection of (3, 7) across the y-axis?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

(-3, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is like putting a mirror on the y-axis. It is asking what point is the photo negative of the point, like a mirror. You see yourself in the mirror but everything is opposite. Your right hand is your left. So which point is the photo negative of (3, 7)? (-3, 7) Because it is only across the y-axis, the y value stays the same.

The fraction models below represent two fractions of the same whole. How much of the Fraction 5 over 8 is in the Fraction 1 over
IrinaVladis [17]

To find how much of 5/8 is you would need to divide 1/2 by 5/8:

X = (1/2) / (5/8)

When dividing fractions, you reverse the second fraction and multiply:

X = (1/2) x (8/5)

X = 8/10

Simplify:

X = 4/5
