First set up your equations, with x/2 +7= 3(x/5 +2). From here distribute the 3 to get 3x/5 + 6

Now subtract 6 from both sides to get
x/2 +1 = 3x/5

Multiply by ten to eliminate the 5 and 2 on the bottom to get 5x + 10 = 6x.

Subtract 5x so you’re left with x= 10

Hope this helps !

the ratio of students at a school is 3 boys for every 4 girls. If there are 52 girls how many boys are in the school
vova2212 [387]
There are 39 boys. 
First you divide 4 into 52 because there are 3 boys for 4 girls. 
Then you take the quotient, 13, and multiply by 3.

The graph compares the number of filled tables at a party with the number of party guests. Which information tells you that the
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship is represented by linear function with its linear parameter "b" equal to zero. Since b is equal to zero, the line passes through the origin and the function/relation is proportional.

To verify that we divide the y coordinate over the x coordinate we obtain a constant called k, which is the slope.

For instance:

y=2x

According to this function we can easily check a proportional relationship among its points:

(1,2), (2,4), (4,8), (6,12), ...

k=\frac{y}{x}=\frac{2}{1}=\frac{4}{2}=\frac{12}{6}\Rightarrow k=2

How do I find the the perimeter of a rectangle<br> in a coordinate plane
pashok25 [27]

From the way you worded the question, it sounds like you have
the (x, y) coordinates of each corner of the rectangle.

The perimeter of any shape is the distance all the way around it,
or the sum of the lengths of all the sides.

So you have to take the coordinates of the four corners of the
rectangle, and find the length of each side ... that's the distance
between each pair of corner-points.  Then addum up to get the
perimeter.

I know finding the distance between two points is a pain, so I'll
tell you a way to make it a bit simpler:  You don't actually need to
do it 4 times.  You can get away with doing it only 2 times, and
you'll have enough information to find the perimeter.

Take the coordinates at the ends of any side of the rectangle.
Find the distance between them.  The side opposite that one
has the same length.

Then take the coordinates of either side that hooks onto the
side you just did.  One end of it will have the same coordinates
that you just worked with.  Find the distance between the two ends.
You know that this distance is the other dimension of the rectangle,
and you also know that the side opposite it has the same length.

So now, you found the distance between two pairs of points,
and you know both dimensions of the rectangle, and you know
the length of all four sides.

Now you can wrap it up !
