The ratio of the students to the professors is 1200:80 = 30:2 = 15.
- After enrollment the number of students will be 1450.
- So the number of professors after enrollment will become the unknown number, x.

➡️ 1200/80 = 1450/x

➡️ 1200x = 1450 * 80

➡️ 1200x = 116,000

➡️ x = 116,000/1200

➡️ x= 96.67

Write an equation in standard form of the hyperbola described.
marishachu [46]

Check the picture below, so the hyperbola looks more or less like so, so let's find the length of the conjugate axis, or namely let's find the "b" component.

\textit{hyperbolas, horizontal traverse axis } \\\\ \cfrac{(x- h)^2}{ a^2}-\cfrac{(y- k)^2}{ b^2}=1 \qquad \begin{cases} center\ ( h, k)\\ vertices\ ( h\pm a, k)\\ c=\textit{distance from}\\ \qquad \textit{center to foci}\\ \qquad \sqrt{ a ^2 + b ^2} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\begin{cases} h=0\\ k=0\\ a=2\\ c=4 \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{(x-0)^2}{2^2}-\cfrac{(y-0)^2}{b^2} \\\\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies 4^2=2^2+b^2\implies 16=4+b^2\implies \underline{12=b^2} \\\\\\ \cfrac{(x-0)^2}{2^2}-\cfrac{(y-0)^2}{12}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{x^2}{4}-\cfrac{y^2}{12}}

Jane is trying to estimate the average electric bill amount of people who live in Las Cruces in summer time. She randomly select
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The estimated average electric cost amount of all residents in Las Cruces = 182.9

Step-by-step explanation:

The bill amounts from the electric company for the month of July for 10 randomly selected houses from the map was obtained to be

135 265 215 103 156 203 125 156 230 241

Using the Central Limit theory, the mean of a sample extracted randomly from an independent distribution is approximately equal to the population mean of the independent distribution.

This means that the sample mean of a random sample extracted from the population is a good estimate of the population mean.

Sample mean ≈ Population mean

μₓ = μ

Mean = = (Σx)/N

The mean is the sum of variables divided by the number of variables

x = each variable

N = Sample size = 10

Σx = (135+265+215+103+156+203+125+156+230+241) = 1,829

Sample mean = (1,829/10) = 182.9

Population mean ≈ sample mean

Population mean ≈ 182.9

Hope this Helps!!!

Graph a line with a slope of 3/4 that contains the point (2,-3).
arsen [322]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, plot the point (2, -3) on the graph.  Then, use the slope to pick another point.  The slope is rise over run.  For your slope, the line will go 3 places up and then 4 places to the right.  Using a straight-edge, follow the points and you will get the graph of the line.
