Answer:

x=# of boys

x+7=# of girls

x+x+7=25

2x+7=25

2x=25-7

2x=18

x=18/2

x=9 boys

x+7=16 girls

 

If you don't understand variables use trial and error.

 

Boys     Girls

1           8

2           9

3           10

4           11

5           12

6           13

7           14

8           15

9           16   9+16=25 students

 

You could start this way...

 

Boys     Girls

12        13

11        14

10        15

9          16     16 is 7 more than 9

Use the Distributive property to solve the equations.
Zanzabum

Answer:

Follow the steps I did in the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

It says to evaluate the equation :-

3.2 = 4/5(b - 5)

3.2 = (4/5 × b) + (4/5 × -5)

3.2 = 4/5b - 4

3.2 + 4 = 4/5b

5/4 × 7.2 = b

9 = b

Hope this helps, thank you :) !!

Find an equation for the plane that is tangent to the surface z equals ln (x plus y )at the point Upper P (1 comma 0 comma 0 ).
alexira [117]

Let f(x,y,z)=z-\ln(x+y). The gradient of f at the point (1, 0, 0) is the normal vector to the surface, which is also orthogonal to the tangent plane at this point.

So the tangent plane has equation

\nabla f(1,0,0)\cdot(x-1,y,z)=0

Compute the gradient:

\nabla f(x,y,z)=\left(\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x},\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y},\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}\right)=\left(-\dfrac1{x+y},-\dfrac1{x+y},1\right)

Evaluate the gradient at the given point:

\nabla f(1,0,0)=(-1,-1,1)

Then the equation of the tangent plane is

(-1,-1,1)\cdot(x-1,y,z)=0\implies-(x-1)-y+z=0\implies\boxed{z=x+y-1}
