I'd say B. but that's only because I divided the number of times he flipped the coin by the number of sides it has, 2, and came up with 246. The closest number on here to that is 231 or B. I hope I helped.

2 sides to a coin
1/2 of them is heads
therefor 1/2 of total is heads
492 times 1/2=246

the closest one is B

In a class of 23 student the girls were 7 more than the boys how many boys were in the class​
Softa [21]

Answer:

x=# of boys

x+7=# of girls

x+x+7=25

2x+7=25

2x=25-7

2x=18

x=18/2

x=9 boys

x+7=16 girls

 

If you don't understand variables use trial and error.

 

Boys     Girls

1           8

2           9

3           10

4           11

5           12

6           13

7           14

8           15

9           16   9+16=25 students

 

You could start this way...

 

Boys     Girls

12        13

11        14

10        15

9          16     16 is 7 more than 9

Which equations represent the line that is parallel to 3x − 4y = 7 and passes through the point (−4, −2)? Select two options.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

2 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx-b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

The point-slope form of a line is y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line.

The standard form a line is ax+by=c.

So anyways parallel lines have the same slope.

So if we are looking for a line parallel to 3x-4y=7 then we need to know the slope of this line so we can find the slope of our parallel line.

3x-4y=7

Goal: Put into slope-intercept form

3x-4y=7

Subtract 3x on both sides:

  -4y=-3x+7

Divide both sides by -4:

   y=\frac{-3}{-4}x+\frac{7}{-4}

Simplify:

   y=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{-7}{4}

So the slope of this line is 3/4.  So our line that is parallel to this one will have this same slope.

So we know our line should be in the form of y=\frac{3}{4}x+b.

To find b we will use the point that is suppose to be on our new line here which is (x,y)=(-4,-2).

So plugging this in to solve for b now:

-2=\frac{3}{4}(-4)+b

-2=-3+b

3-2=b

b=1

so the equation of our line in slope-intercept form is y=\frac{3}{4}x+1

So that isn't option 1 because the slope is different.  That was the only option that was in slope-intercept form.

The standard form of a line is ax+by=c and we have 2 options that look like that.

So let's rearrange the line that we just found into that form.

y=\frac{3}{4}x+1

Clear the fractions because we only want integer coefficients by multiplying both sides by 4.

This gives us:

4y=3x+4

Subtract 3x on both sides:

-3x+4y=4

I don't see this option either.

Multiply both sides by -1:

3x-4y=-4

I do see this as a option. So far the only option that works is 2.

Let's look at point slope form now.

We had the point that our line went through was (x1,y1)=(-4,-2) and the slope,m, was 3/4 (we found this earlier).

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Plug in like so:

y-(-2)=3/4(x-(-4))

y+2=3/4 (x+4)

So option 5 looks good too.

10+5-7=3y<br><br> -10x+5x+5=-15<br><br> 3x+2x-4x+10<br><br> pre algebra 8th grade math
jasenka [17]

Answer:

1) y=8/3=2 2/3   2) x=4    3) x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 10+5-7=3y

Calculate the sum or difference.

8=3y

Swap the sides of the equation.

3y=8

Divide both sides by 3.

y=8/3=2 2/3

2) -10x+5x+5=-15

Collect like terms.

-5x+5=-15

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change the sign.

-5x=-15-5

Calculate the difference.

-5x=-20

Divide both sides by -5.

x=4

3) 3x+2x-4x+10

Collect like terms.

(3+2-4)x+10

Calculate the sum or difference.

1x+10

When the term has a coefficient of 1, it doesn't have to be written.

x+10

Hope this helps :)
