A large community college has professors and lecturers. the total number of faculty is 136. The school reported that they have 6
ipn [44]
Let's come up with an equation for the numbers. We know that there are 136 faculty members, and there are 6 professors for every 11 lecturers. The equation could look something like this:

(6 * x) + (11 * x) = 136.

First, combine like terms:

6x + 11x = 136
17x = 136

Now, divide both sides by 17.

17x/17 = 136/17
x = 8.

Now, to check, plug in 8 for x in our equation:

(6 * 8) + (11 * 8) = 136
48 + (11 * 8) = 136
48 + 88 = 136

So to answer the question, they have 48 professors! :)

vampirchik [111]

Todd fills 30 paper cups with ketchup and Yuki fills 27 paper cups with ketchup.

Each paper cup holds 1 ounce

Todd = 30 * 1 = 30 ounces

Yuki = 27 * 1 = 27 ounces

Total ounces = 30 + 27

Later, Todd and Yuki learn that two other company employees completed exactly the same task.

Total ounces = 2 (30 + 27)

What is not a description of slope?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Option (d) is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is:

  • rise over run
  • The rate of change of a line
  • Change in y over the change in x
  • <em><u>The ratio of vertical change  to the horizontal change. </u></em>

It can be given by mathematically as follows :

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{and}\\\\m=\dfrac{dy}{dx}

Hence, the option which is not a description of slope is (d) "the ratio of horizontal change compared to vertical change"

The base of a triangular prism is a right triangle with a base of 6 inches, a height of 8 inches, and a third side length of 10
Vikentia [17]

The surface area of the rectangular prism with the dimensions that are stated is: 384 in.²

<h3>What is the Surface Area of a Triangular Prism?</h3>

Surface area = perimeter of base × height of prism + 2(base area)

= (s1 + s2 + s3)L + 2(1/2bh)

Given the following:

  • side of base (s1) = 6 in.
  • side of base (s2) = 8 in.
  • side of base (s3) = 10 in.
  • Length of prism (L) = 14 in.
  • Triangular base length (b) = 6 in.
  • h = 8 in.

Surface area = (6 + 8 + 10)14 + 2(1/2 × 6 × 8)

Surface area = 384 in.²
