Answer:

<em>There were 204 ladies and 136 gentlemen in the conference</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set the variables:

L = number of ladies in the conference

G = number of gentlemen in the conference

We know 340 people participated in the conference, thus:

L + G = 340         [1]

We are also given the ratio of ladies and gentleman as 3:2, thus:

L/G = 3/2

Cross-multiplying:

2L = 3G        [2]

From [1]:

L = 340 - G

Substituting in [2]:

2(340 - G) = 3G

Operating:

680 - 2G = 3G

5G = 680

G = 680/5 = 136

G = 136

L = 340 - 136 = 204

L = 204

There were 204 ladies and 136 gentlemen in the conference

I need help finding the missing angle with work plz <br> ANSWER ASAP!!!!!!
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The unknown angle is 80

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees

Let the unknown angle be x

20+80+x = 180

Add like terms

100+x = 180

Subtract 100 from each side

100-100+x=180-100

x = 80

Hello!

Significant digits are defined as all digits that determine the value of a number, excluding any zeros that act as placeholders. Let's find the number of significant digits in each option individually:

A. 0.0009462 = 4 significant digits (the zeros are placeholders)
B. 1.000150 = 7 significant digits
C. 2.0145 = 5 significant digits
D. 3.01255 = 6 significant digits

Looking at the list above, we can see that Option B has the greatest number (7) of significant digits.

The answer is Option B.

I hope this helps!

What are the solutions to the system of equations?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

(0, - 3 ) and (- 1, - 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 4x² + 6x - 3 → (1)

y = 2x - 3 → (2)

Substitute y = 4x² + 6x - 3 into (2)

4x² + 6x - 3 = 2x - 3 ( subtract 2x - 3 from both sides )

4x² + 4x = 0 ← factor out 4x from each term

4x(x + 1) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

4x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

Substitute these values into (2) for corresponding values of y

x = 0 : y = 2(0) - 3 = 0 - 3 = - 3 ⇒ (0, - 3 )

x = - 1 : y = 2(- 1) - 3 = - 2 - 3 = - 5 ⇒ (- 1, - 5 )
