Answer: 28 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Lisa sold 11 shirts for every 7 shirts Becky sold. This can be expressed in a fraction as:

Lisa = 11/(11 + 7) = 11/18

Becky = 7/(11 + 7) = 7/18

If the girls sold 72 shirts in all, the number of shirts sold by Becky will be:

= 7/18 × 72

= 7 × 4

= 28

A line passes through the points (8, –1) and (–4, 2). A coordinate plane. What is the y-intercept of this line?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

y-intercept is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the equation of the line first.

<h3>Gradient</h3>

The gradient is found using the formula:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

m=\frac{-1-2}{8--4}

m=-\frac{1}{4}

So the equation is y = -\frac{1}{4}x + c

<h3>Finding c</h3>

To find c we need to substitute the value of x and y into the equation:

-1 = -\frac{8}{4} + c

-1 = -2 + c

1 = c

And c is the y-intercept so it is 1

Solve for x. 3(x 2) 4(x - 5) = 10
MatroZZZ [7]
Assuming that there is supposed to be a + sign in front of the 2 and 4; the answer is as follows.

3(x+2)+4(x-5)=10
3x+6+4x-20=10
7x-16=10
7x=16
x=2 2/7

Hope this helps :)

If the sides of a share are increased by the 3 m, the area becomes 64 m squared. Find the length of a side of the original squar
RSB [31]

The original length of a side was 13m

I got this by

taking 3m and * it by 4 because thats how many sides there are then

I got 12 so I subtracted 12 from 64 i got 52

so i divided the 52 by 4

which is

13

Write x as a logarithm in the following: 10^x=7
pochemuha

Answer:

x = log 7

Step-by-step explanation:

10^x=7

Take the log base 10 on each side

log10 (10^x)=log10 (7)

We dont need to write the 10, it is implied

log(10^x)=log (7)

The exponent  goes out front since log a^b = b log a

x log 10 = log 7

log 10 = 1 since the base is 10 log10(10) =1

x = log 7
