Answer: Around 1000 students would buy a schoo lunch.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in one class, 14 students bring lunch from home, and 20 buy lunch in the school. This will be our sample.

In total we have 20 + 14 = 34 students, this will be our 100%.

The percentage of students that bring lunch from home can be estimated as the quotient between the number of students that bring lunch from home and the total number of students, times 100%.

p1 = (14/34)*100% = 41.18%

And the percentage of students that buy lunch at school can be computed in the same way:

p2= (20/34)*100% = 58.82%

Then, out of the 1700 students in middle school, we can estimate that around 58.82% of them will buy lunch in the school.

Then the exact number will be:

N = (58.82%/100%)*1700 = 1000

Around 1000 students would buy a schoo lunch.

Which system of equation is represented​
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let us figure out what is graphed and then manipulate each answer to try to match it.

The one with a positive slope is

y\leq x-2

The one with the negative slope is

y\geq 3-2x

Now that we have our graphed system of inequalities, we can try to match them to an answer.

A. while the x-2 is the same, the other does not have an x, so it cannot match.

B. The second inequality has the wrong sign, so it is impossible for this to be our answer.

C. When each of these are solved for y, you get y\leq 2x-3\\\\y\leq 2-x. Neither of these match so this cannot be correct.

D. When the first inequality is solved you get y\geq 3-2x

When the second inequality is solved you get y\leq x-2

As both of these answers match our graphed inequalities, D is the correct answer.

I ALREADY SET UP THE GRAPH, I JUST NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT!
Sveta_85 [38]
Search up heating curve chemistry: it should look somewhat like that lol :). But, the last interval should have a small slope, the middle interval a big slope, and the first interval: a medium slope.

Lines k and p are perpendicular, neither is vertical and p passes through the origin. Which is greater? A. The product of the sl
AlladinOne [14]
What do we know about those two lines?

They are perpendicular, meaning they have the same slope.
We know the slope of both is not zero (neither is vertical).
Therefore either
1) Both slopes are positive and therefore the product is positive
2) Both slopes are negative and therefore the product is positive (minus by a minus is a plus)

For the y intercepts, we know that the line P passes through the origin.
Therefore its Y intercept is zero.
[draw it if this is not obvious and ask where does it cross the y axis]
Therefore the Y intercept of line K and line P is zero.
[anything multiplied by a zero is a zero]

So we know that the product of slopes is positive, and we know that the product of Y intercepts is zero.
So the product of slopes must be greater.
