Answer:

The least possible number of people in the family is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the minimum number of people that make up the family, knowing that 0.83 of the children are boys, the following logical reasoning must be carried out:

Given that 0.83 is the result of 5/6, it can be said that 5 of the 6 children of the couple are boys. These 6 children must be added to the 2 fathers of the family, with which the total number of family members is 8.

After 2 week he has used 8 1/2 cups of dog food after 5 week he has used 21 1/4 cups construct a function in the form y =mx+ to
gladu [14]

Answer:

<em> y = 4.25x</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

After 2 week he has used 8 1/2 cups of dog food after 5 week he has used 21 1/4 cups, we can write this in coordinate form (x, y) where;

y is the amount of dog food

x is the time in weeks

The coordinates are (2, 8 1/2) and (5, 21 1/4)

get the slope m:

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = (21 1/4 - 8 1/2)/5-2

m = (85/4-17/2)/3

m = (85-34/4)/3

m = 51/12

m = 4.25

Get the intercept c:

Substitute any of the points say (2, 17/2) and m = 51/12 into the equation

y = mx+c

17/2 = 51/12(2) + c

17/2 = 51/6 + c

c = 17/2 - 51/6

c = 51-51/6

c = 0

Get the required equation:

substitute m - 4.25 and c = 0 into y = mx+c

y = 4.25x + 0

<em>Hence the required equation is y = 4.25x</em>

SOLUTION

Step 1: Find the area of the wall.

\begin{gathered} A=l\times b \\ A=42\times25.5 \\ A=1071ft^2 \end{gathered}

Step 2: Find the cost of wallpaper per square foot

=\frac{total\text{ cost of wallpaper}}{Area\text{ of the wall}}\begin{gathered} =\frac{771.12}{1071} \\ =0.72\text{ dollars} \end{gathered}

The correct answer is B: $0.72

A 12- foot ladder is resting against a wall. The base of the ladder is 2.5 feet from the base of the wall. How high up the wall
maks197457 [2]
The right triangle has legs of x and 2.5 where x is the height up the wall that the ladder will reach. The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

According to the Pythagorean Theorem, x^2 + 2.5^2 = 12^2
x = 11.736 approx To the nearest tenth that is 11.7.
