Answer:

There are 216 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide 126 by 7 (number of women) and you get 18 then you times that by 5 (total number of men) and you get 90 finally you add 90 (men) and 126 (women) to get 216 employees in total.

Breann solved the system of equations below. What mistake did she make in her work?
mihalych1998 [28]
If 2x+y=5, then y=5-2x, so she substituted correctly.
x+4x=5x, so she combined like terms correctly.
She didn't subtract 10 from both sides, she added 10 to both sides.

Check the solution:
2x+y=5 \hbox{ and } x-2y=10 \\
2 \times 4-3=5 \hbox{ and } 4-2 \times (-3)=10 \\
8-3=5 \hbox{ and } 4+6=10 \\
5=5 \hbox{ and } 10=10 \\
\checkmark

The answer is: She made no mistake.

What is the y-intercept of a line that has a slope of –3 and passes through point (–5, 4)? –17 , –11 , 7 , 19
Sindrei [870]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

b = -11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation in slope-intercept form to solve for the intercept:

y = mx + b

Plug in the slope and point values:

4 = -3(-5) + b

Simplify:

4 = 15 + b

Solve for b:

-11 = b

b represents the y-intercept, therefore:

y-intercept = -11

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with an area of 2x^2+11x+5 in^2?​
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

6x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = side x side

Factor the quadratic:

2x^2 +10x / +1x +5

2x(x+5) 1 (x+5)

(2x + 1) (x+5)

^These are your two sides

Perimeter =2L + 2W

(2(2x+1)) + (2(x+5))

4x+4+2x+10 = final answer 6x + 14
