Answer:

288 females

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a proportion to solve, putting males over females

males 5 360

------------ = ------------ = -------------

females 4 x

Using cross products

5x = 360*4

5x =1440

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 1440/5

x = 288

Answer:

The number of females is 288.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of females be x.

5:4 = 360:x

We can write the equal ratios as a proportion.

5/4 = 360/x

Cross multiply:

5x = 360 * 4

5x = 1440

x = 288

Answer: The number of females is 288.

Determine the x-intercept and the y-intercept for the graph of this equation:<br> 2x - 3y + 36 = 0

natali 33 [55]

QUESTION:- DETERMINE THE X-INTERCEPT AND THE Y-INTERCEPT FOR THE GRAPH OF THE EQUATION.

EQUATION:- 2x - 3y + 36 = 0

STANDARD EQUATION:- y=mx+c

where

m-> slope.
c-> Y-INTERCEPT
x&y are the coordinates.

SO GIVEN EQUATION:- 2x - 3y + 36 = 0

WE CAN SOLVE THIS TO CHANGE IN FORMAT OF STANDARD EQUATION

$2x - 3y + 36 = 0 \\ 2x + 36 =3y \\ y = \frac{2}{3} x + \frac{36}{3} \\ y = \frac{2}{3} x + \frac{ \cancel{36}^{ \: \: 12} }{ \cancel3} \\ y = \frac{2}{3} x + 12 \\$

SO :-

$m = \frac{2}{3} \\ y - intercept = 12 \: ans$

$slope = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} \\ \frac{2}{3} = \frac{0 - 12}{x - 0} \\ 2x = ( - 12) \times 3 \\ x = \frac{ - \cancel{12}^{ \: \: 6} \times 3 }{ \cancel{2}} \\ x = - 18 \: \: ans$

Find the Area of the shape

tatuchka [14]

Well to find the area, you simply need to find the formulas! Sadly it specifically depends on the shape alothough that’s what googled for! Just look up the formulas and plug in the legnth width and height maybe even perimeter of base! There you have it!
