Answer:

104

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys : girls = 3 : 1 = 3x : x ( x is a multiplier )

There are 52 more boys than girls , so

3x = x + 52 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x = 52 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 26, then

3x = 3 × 26 = 78 ← number of boys

Total number = 78 + 26 = 104

Answer:

x= 1/20

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2x = -10

multiply by 2x on each side

2x(-1/2x) = -10*2x

-1 = -20x

divide by -20

-1/-20 = -20x/-20

1/20 =x

How many cones of radius 1 m and height 1 m have total volume equal to the volume of a sphere with a radius 1m?
DiKsa [7]
Vcone=1/3(hpir^2)
Vsphere=(4/3)pir^3

evaluate
vcone=1/3(1pi1^2)=pi/3
vsphere=4/3pi1^3=4pi/3


pi/3 times what=4pi/3
times both sides by 3
pi times what=4pi
divide both sides by pi
1 times what=4
what=4



4 cones

For which independent value do the equations generate the same dependent value? y1=6x-16 , y2=3x-10
Nikitich [7]
The question asks which x-value gives the same y-value for both equations, so if you need the ys to be equal, you can set both equations equal to each other, giving you 6x-16=3x-10. Now, solve for x. 6x-16=3x-10, subtract 3x and add 16, 3x=6, divide 3, x=2. Your answer is x=2.
