Answer:

  • North Middle School = 10 students
  • Central Middle School = 6 students
  • South Middle School = 4 students

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate the total number of students in all the schools:

= 618 + 378 + 204  

= 1,200 students

Use this number to calculate the proportion of the total population that a school so that this can then be used to determine the proportion of the 20 delegates they should sent.

North Middle school:  

= 618/1,200 * 20  

= 10 students

 

Central Middle School:  

= 378 / 1,200 * 20  

= 6 students

 

South Middle School:  

= 204/1,200 * 20  

= 4 students

Help Fast Please!!!!!!!!! How can you tell if three positive numbers form a Pythagorean triple?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Square all three numbers. If the largest number squared is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two, then the numbers form a Pythagorean triple.

<u><em>or</em></u>

Since a Pythagorean triple is three positive integers a, b, and c such that (a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2), first take the sum of the squares of the two legs and make an estimate. For example, 3, 4, and 5 is a Pythagorean triple since 9+16=25

<u><em>either one works</em></u>

What is the x-intercept for the equation -2x + 5y = -10
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The x-intercept is at the point (5,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 5y = -10

At the x intercept y = 0 so we substitute y = 0 into the given equation:

-2x + 5(0) = -10

-2x = -10

x = 5.
