Hi!

Given the ratio of boys to girls, which is 6/9, we can find the number of boys in a total of 75 students like this:

(6/9) * 75 = (6*75)/9 = 450/9 = 50

There are 50 boys.

Hope this helps!

There are 30 boys.

6x+9x=75

15x=75

15 divided 75 =5

6(5)=30 boys

9(5)girls

Total 75

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

$899.15

0.85(1199) - 120

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the purchase total, multiply the price by the percent paid and subtract the certificate.

The store offers a 15% discount. This means you pay 85% of the price. So the discounted price is 0.85(1199) = 1019.15

Subtract the certificate 1019.15 - 120 = 899.15

The composite function is 0.85(1199) - 120.

The pair of points lies on the same line with the given slope. Find x.
KIM [24]
If the gradient is -2 that just means we work back the way, the method i use to find the gradient is y^2-y^1/x^2-x^1 so if we sub the variables in that gives us -18-(-8)/3-x so if we add that up we get -10/3-x, so what has to be on the bottom to get -2? in this case it would be -2 so the overall answer would be -10/5 which would give us a slope of -2 when simplified :) hope this helps

Which equation represents a line which is perpendicular to the y-axis?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-axis and any lines that are parallel to it are vertical. Therefore, a line that would be perpendicular to the y-axis would need to be horizontal. All horizontal lines have a slope equal to 0 and are represented by the equation y = a constant, or a single number with no variables.  

The only option that follows that format is y = 5, thus that is the answer.
