Answer:

25% of the students are girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Key skills needed: Ratios, Percents, Fractions</u>

1) There are 6 girls and 18 boys in the class --> This means that there are 6+18 or 24 people in the class total.

2) 6 of the 24 people are girls. So as a fraction --> 6/24 is the number of girls over the total number of people.

3) This can be simplified as 1/4 --> Divide 1 by 4 --> And this is 0.25

4) Multiply this by a 100 to get a percent form --> 25%

I need help and it is y intercept and x intercept
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

y-intercept (0, -3) and x-intercept (3/2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 5 =2(x + 1)

y + 5 =2x + 2

subtract 5 from both side

y =2x -3

-3 is the y-intercept because in y=mx+b, b is the y-intercept and it always starts at 0.

To find the x-intercept, we need to plug in 0 for y in y =2x -3

0=2x -3

add 3 to both sides

2x=3

divide both sides by 2

x=3/2 and so the x-intercept is 3/2 and it always starts at 0.

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y=0.6x + 3 and that passes through the point (-3,-5)
Mkey [24]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=0.6x-3.2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have

y=0.6x+3

Parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore we have the equation:

y=0.6x+b

The line passes through the point (-3, -5). Put the coordinates of the point to the equation and solve it for b:

-5=0.6(-3)+b

-5=-1.8+b            <em>add 1.8 to both sides</em>

-3.2=b

Finally we have:

y=0.6x-3.2
