$\frac{12}{10}= \frac{18}{x} 
$
cross multiply
12x=180
divide both sides by 12
x=15
if their is 10 girls, then you need 5 more to keep the ratio.

2 u + 12 < 23<br> 0,1 d + 8 > 0<br> 3 - 4 r > 7<br> 13 < 2 z + 3<br> 6 ≥ 9 - 0, 15 i

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Part 1) $u< 5.5$

Part 2) $d > -80$

Part 3) $r < -1$

Part 4) $z>5$

Part 5) $i\geq 20$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is</em></u>

Solve each inequality for the indicated variable

Part 1) we have

$2u+12$

subtract 12 both sides

$2u< 23-12\\2u$

Divide by 2 both sides

$u< 5.5$

The solution is the interval (-∞,5.5)

In a number line the solution is the shaded area at left of u=5.5 (open circle)

The number 5.5 is not included in the solution

Part 2) we have

$0.1d+8 >0$

subtract 8 both sides

$0.1d > -8$

Divide by 0.1 both sides

$d > -80$

The solution is the interval (-80,∞)

In a number line the solution is the shaded area at right of d=-80 (open circle)

The number -80 is not included in the solution

Part 3) we have

$3-4r> 7$

Subtract 3 both sides

$-4r>7-3\\-4r>4$

Divide by -4 both sides

Remember that, when you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol

$r < -1$

The solution is the interval (-∞,-1)

In a number line the solution is the shaded area at left of r=-1.1 (open circle)

The number -1.1 is not included in the solution

Part 4) we have

$13< 2z+3$

Subtract 3 both sides

$13-3$

Divide by 2 both sides

$5$

Rewrite

$z>5$

The solution is the interval (5,∞)

In a number line the solution is the shaded area at right of z=5 (open circle)

The number 5 is not included in the solution

Part 5) we have

$6\geq 9-0.15i$

Subtract 9 both sides

$6-9\geq -0.15i\\-3\geq -0.15i$

Divide by -0.15 both sides

Remember that, when you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol

$20\leq i$

Rewrite

$i\geq 20$

The solution is the interval [20,∞)

In a number line the solution is the shaded area at right of i=20 (closed circle)

The number 20 is included in the solution

Which statement describes the function y = axn when a = 1 and n is odd?

kiruha [24]

Answer:

The graph is symmetric about the origin.

The graph does not pass through the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given:

the function y=axn
a = 1
n is odd

Because a = 1, then the given function can be rewritten as y = n.

The graph opens down

The function y = n will produce a horizontal line. Any function in the form of y = a single number, such as 4 or 9.3 will produce a horizontal line.

The graph is symmetric about the origin.

This is true, given the graph is a horizontal line.

The graph does not pass through the origin.

This is also true. We're given that n is an odd number. The graph will only pass through the origin if n = 0, and 0 is even.

The graph has more than one x-intercept.

This would only be true when n = 0, and this isn't possible. So, no.
