Answer:

90 of the students are girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys : Girls

B : G

4 : 3

120 : ?

(120 ÷ 4 = 30) so 4 × 30 = 120

(Do this to the other side) 3 × 30 = 90

B : G

120 : 90 [90 girls out of 210 total students]

Hope this helps. :)

1. If a side started out with a side length of 11 and ended with a side length of 71 what is the dilation's scale factor? Write

jeka57 [31]

Regarding dilation, it is found that:

1. The scale factor is of 6.45

2. The scale factor is of 1.4375.

3. the image will be smaller than the pre-image.

<h3>Dilation</h3>

A dilation is one type of transformation that is applied to images, in which the side lengths are multiplied by a constant called scale factor, changing the side lengths of the image.

In item a, the initial length was of 11 and the final length is of 71, hence the multiplier, which is the scale factor, is given as follows:

71/11 = 6.45.

In item b, the initial length was of 16 and the final length was of 23, hence the scale factor is given as follows:

23/16 = 1.4375.

For item 3, the multiplier is a number that is less than 1, meaning that the image is smaller than the pre-image.

Which shows the correct substitution of the values a, b, and c from the equation 0 = – 3x2 – 2x + 6 into the quadratic formula?

AlexFokin [52]

An expression which shows the correct substitution of the values a, b, and c from the equation 0 = – 3x2 – 2x + 6 into the quadratic formula is: expression A. Therefore, the correct answer option is A.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation can be defined as a mathematical expression (equation) that can be used to define and represent the relationship that exists between two or more variable on a graph. In Mathematics, the standard form of a quadratic equation is given by;

ax² + bx + c = 0

Mathematically, the quadratic formula is modeled or represented by this mathematical expression:

$x = \frac{-b\; \pm \;\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

From the information provided, we have the following values;

0 = -3x² - 2x + 6

Where:

a = -3

b = -2

c = 6

Substituting the values into the quadratic formula, we have;

$x = \frac{-(-2)\; \pm \;\sqrt{(-2)^2 - 4(-3)(6)}}{2(-3)}\\\\x = \frac{2\; \pm \;\sqrt{4^2 - 4(-3)(6)}}{2(-3)}$

I really need help with this last problem

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Profit, p, earned from selling x hats when hat will be sold for $12 each:

p = 12x

b. To recover the cost of making the 200 hats which is $1500, profit, p >= cost:

p = 12x >= 1500

x >= 1500/12 = 12.5

So the minimum number of hats that must be sold = 13

c. New hat price = $15 so p = 15x

p = 15x >= 1500

x >= 1500/15 = 10

So the new minimum = 10 which is 3 fewer.
