Hey! Pretty stranger :D

AsnwEr:

Number of girls in class = 15

GivEn:

The ratio of no. of boys to no. of girls in a class is 4:5.
Number of boys in class = 12

To find:

Number of girls in class?

Solution:

☯ Let number of girls be x.

Given that,

The ratio of no. of boys to no. of girls in a class is 4:5.

Therefore,

→ 12/x = 4/5

→ x = 12 × 5/4

→ x = 60/4

→ x = 15

∴ Hence, number of girls in a class is 15.

Solve for x (13x + 2) (5x - 7) (3x - 4) Thank you

Law Incorporation [45]

$\huge \bf༆ Answer ༄$

As we know, sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°

that is ~

$\sf13x + 2 + 5x - 7 + 3x - 4 = 180$

$\sf21x - 9 = 180$

$\sf21x = 180 + 9$

$\sf x = \dfrac{189}{21}$

$\sf x = 9 \degree$

Hence, value of x is 9°

Which choice is the equation of a line that passes through (9, -3) and is parallel to the line represented by this equation? y=5

miskamm [114]

Answer:

$y+3=\frac{5}{3}(x-9)$ or $y=\frac{5}{3}x-18$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the line parallel to the given line

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

we have

$y=\frac{5}{3}x-4$

therefore

The slope m of the line parallel to the given line is

$m=\frac{5}{3}$

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=\frac{5}{3}$

$point\ (9,-3)$

substitute

$y+3=\frac{5}{3}(x-9)$ ----> equation of the line in point slope form

step 3

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

we have

$y+3=\frac{5}{3}(x-9)$

Isolate the variable y

$y+3=\frac{5}{3}x-15$

$y=\frac{5}{3}x-15-3$

$y=\frac{5}{3}x-18$
