Answer:

14 to 132

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that there are 132 boys and 14 adults. Since the question is only asking for the ratio of adults to boys, we don't have to worry about the number of girls in this question. From here, we see that the question is asking for the ratio of adults to boys, so we put it in that exact order. Our answer is 14 to 132. I hope this helps and please don't hesitate to reach out with more questions!

x2 + 7x - 18 Select one of the factors of the quadratic expression. A) (x+2) B) (x+6) C) (x-2) D) (x-6)
lubasha [3.4K]
The factors of this expression would be (x+9)(x-2). You have to find two numbers that are factors of -18 that add up to 7. These numbers would be 9 and -2:
(9)x(-2)= -18
and 9 + (-2)= 7
Your answer is C) (x-2).

Of 560 marbles in a bag, 65% are red and the rest are blue. After 28 red marbles are replaced with blue ones, how many blue marb
jonny [76]

Answer:  The answer is 400  blue marbles.


Step-by-step explanation: Given that there are 560 marbles in a bag, out of which 65% are red and rest are blue.

So, number of red marbles is

n_r=65\%\times 560=\dfrac{65}{100}\times 560=364,

and number of blue marbles is

n_b=560-364=196.

Now, if 28 red marbles are replaced by blue marbles, the the new number of red and blue marbles will be

n_r^\prime=364-28=336~~~\textup{and}~~~n_b^\prime=196+28=224.

Now, to get 65% of the marbles blue, we need to add some more blue marbles to the bag. Let 'x' number of blue marbles are added to the bag, then

65\%\times (560+x)=224+x\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{65}{100}\times (560+x)=224+x\\\\\Rightarrow 13(560+x)=20(224+x)\\\\\Rightarrow 7280+13x=4480+20x\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=2800\\\\\Rightarrow x=400.

Thus, 400 blue marbles need to be added to the bag.

What is the solution of log4(2x-6)=2
Flauer [41]

Answer: x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

Remembert that, by definition:

log_b(x)=y → b^y=x

Then, you can rewrite log_4(2x-6)=2 in exponential form:

4^2=2x-6

Now you can solve for the variable "x":

Add 6 to both sides of the equation:

4^2+6=2x-6+6

22=2x

And finally you must divide both sides of the equation by 2, then:

\frac{22}{2}=\frac{2x}{2}\\\\x=11

Solve 1/2x + 3 > 2(x-5/2)
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

1/4x (8 x - 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

write the division as a fraction

1/2x + 3/2x (x - 5 ÷ 2)

factor out 1/2 from the expression.

1/2x(x + 3(x - 5 ÷ 2))

divide the numbers.

1/2x(x + 3(x - 2.5))

distribute 3 through the parentheses.

1/2x(x + 3x - 7.5)

collect like terms.

1/2x(4x - 7.5)

1/2x(4x - 15/2)

factor out 1/2 from the expression.

1/2 x 1/2 x (8 x - 15)

multiply the fractions

= 1/4 x (8x - 15)

or alternative form

= 0.25(8x - 15)
