Answer:

257 students in the lower school

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to make the fractions have an equal denominator so make 1/3 5/15s and 2/5 to 6/15's, 5+6= 11/15s that leaves 4/15's for the lower part of the school

4 divided by 15 is 4.6 repeating so divide 1200 by 4.66 and boom

Adam’s car traveled 465.3 miles on 16.5 gallons of gas. Which equation can be used to determine the average number of miles that
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

y=28.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

In this problem

Let

x------> the number of gallons

y------> the number of miles

the relationship between the number of miles and the gallons of gas represent a linear direct variation

The constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m

m=\frac{465.3}{16.5}= 28.2\frac{miles}{gallon}

therefore

the equation of the linear equation

y=28.5x

Indicate in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given point and having the given slope
Naddik [55]
ANSWER


The equation is

y - 5x + 20 = 0


EXPLANATION

Let the equation be
y = mx + c

where
m = 5
is the slope of the line.


We substitute this value to obtain,

y = 5x + c


Since the line passes through
(4,0)
we can use this point to determine the value of c.



We substitute this point to obtain,

0 = 5(4) + c


0 = 20 + c


c =  - 20


Our equation now becomes

y = 5x - 20


We can write this in standard form as


y - 5x + 20 = 0

The Magic Dragon has 2013 heads. Leo the Brave is cutting off the Dragon's heads at a speed of 5 heads per minute. The Dragon's
aivan3 [116]

Answer:  The answer is 1833 heads  and 11 hours, 11 minutes.


Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the Magic Dragon has 2013 heads. The brave Leo is cutting off the Dragon's heads at a speed of 5 heads per minute. But, the Dragon's heads are growing back at a speed of 2 heads per minute.

So, the number of heads of Dragon that are decreasing per minute = 3.

Therefore, after 1 hour, i.e., 60 minutes, The number of heads of the Dragon

= 2013 - 60 × 3 = 2013 - 180 = 1833 heads.

Now, the fight will last until all the heads of the Dragon are cut. Let the fight lasts for 'x' minutes, then

2013-x\times 3=0\\\\\Rightarrow 3x=2013\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{2013}{3}=671.

Hence the fight lasts for 671 minutes, i.e., 11 hours and 11 minutes.

Thus, the Dragon will have 1833 heads after 1 hour and the fight will last for 11 hour and 11 minutes.
