Answer:

boys = 705

girls = 783

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to find the number of boys and girls in the school

the answer can be determined using simultaneous equation

x = boys

y = girls

y - x = 78  equation 1

y + x  = 1488 equation 2

subtract equation 1 from 2

2x = 1410

x = 1410/2 = 705

Substitute for x in equation 1

y - 705 = 78

y = 705 + 78 = 783

A spinner is divided into four equal sections that are numbered 2, 4, 7, and 9. The spinner is spun twice.How many outcomes have
shusha [124]

The spinner is divided into four equal sections: 2, 4, 7, 9. This represents 4 possibilities

If the spinner is spun twice, the sample space is:

\text{Sample space = 4}^2\text{ = 16}

For product less than 30, the number of outcomes is shown below:

The number of outcomes that have a product less than 30 = 10

The sample space that shows possibilities of an odd number combination:

The number of outcomes that contains at least one odd number = 12

The number of outcomes that have a product less than 30 and contain at least one odd number is shown below. These outcomes are outcomes circled in both cases shown above,

The outcomes circled represents the number of outcomes that has a product less than 30 and contains at least one odd number

Steven conjectures that for |x|>5, it is true that x^3>125. Is his conjecture correct? Why or why not?
vredina [299]

Conjectures are conclusions formed from evidences. Steven's conjecture that: x^3 > 125 is true because: x > 5 or x > -5 for |x| > 5

Given that:

|x| > 5

Split the inequality as follows:

x > 5 or x > -5

Take the cube of both sides

x^3 > 5^3 or x^3 > -5^3

Evaluate all exponents

x^3 > 125 or x^3 > -125

Steven's conjecture that: x^3 > 125 is true because:

x > 5 or x > -5 for |x| > 5

A nursery has 15 bags of topsoil. Each planter holds 1/8 of a bag.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

120 planters can be filled with topsoil.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each planter can hold 1/8th of a bag of topsoil, this means that one bag of topsoil can fill up 8 planters.

15 x 8 = 120, so this means that 120 planters can be filled with topsoil.
