Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, total rooms girls booked be x and total rooms girls booked be y.

entire hotel was booked except two rooms.

so, total = 158-2 = 156

x+ y = 156

this is equation 1.

also, girls are using three times more room than boys.

so, y=3x

substituting y=3x in 1st equation,

x+ 3x = 156

or, 4x = 156

or, x= 156/4

x= 39

M is the midpoint of AB and C is the midpoint of AM . Let the coordinate of A = 7y and the coordinate of B = 3x. Find the coordi
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinate of the midpoint of a line is gotten by adding the values of the two end points and then dividing the result by 2.

Given that M is the midpoint of AB, A = 7y and B = 3x, hence the coordinate of point M is given as:

M = (A + B)/2 = (7y + 3x)/2

Also, C is the midpoint of AM, hence the coordinates of point C is given as:

C=\frac{A+M}{2}\\ \\C=\frac{7y+\frac{3x+7y}{2} }{2}\\ \\C=\frac{\frac{14y+3x+7y}{2} }{2}\\ \\C=\frac{21y+3x }{4}

Hence the coordinates for point C is C=\frac{21y+3x }{4}

Answer:

5:3

Step-by-step explanation:

So, ratio of girls to boys is 20:12 . You can reduce this ratio, the same way you reduce a fraction. Both numbers have a common fact of 4 , so divide both by 4 . In simplest form, this ratio is 5:3 .

If numbers go on does that mean there rational ?
Natali [406]

technically, yes because there is a mathematic formula behind numbers going on as long as it is a repeated pattern throughout the new numbers
