<u>Answer:</u>
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
- <em>When we listen to the word "quotient", it means the solution to a division problem. </em>
- <em>An unknown number that has been multiplied by 2 is in the numerator because it came before the 7 in the statement. </em>
- <em>The number "7" is in the denominator because it came after the 2x in the statement. </em>
- <em>The word "is" represents an equal sign.</em>
- <em>The solution to the division problem (quotient) is 20. </em>
<u><em>If we put these clues together, we get 2x/7 = 20 as our translated equation.</em></u>
<u>Hence, our algebraic statement is 2x/7 = 20. The key is to listen to the statement. </u>

You are not giving enough information but in one of the calsses the average of student's height might be greater than the other class beacause one of the two classes needs to have 1 extra person than the other calss
1 st hit=12 ft
2nd hit=2*6=12 ft
3rd hit=2*3=6 ft
4th hit=2*1.5=3 ft
total distance=12+12+6+3=33 ft
Answers:
a = -6/37
b = -1/37
============================================================
Explanation:
Let's start things off by computing the derivatives we'll need

Apply substitution to get

I've factored things in such a way that we have something in the form Msin(x) + Ncos(x), where M and N are coefficients based on the constants a,b.
The right hand side is simply sin(x). So we want that cos(x) term to go away. To do so, we need the coefficient (a-6b) in front of that cosine to be zero
a-6b = 0
a = 6b
At the same time, we want the (-6a-b)sin(x) term to have its coefficient be 1. That way we simplify the left hand side to sin(x)
-6a -b = 1
-6(6b) - b = 1 .... plug in a = 6b
-36b - b = 1
-37b = 1
b = -1/37
Use this to find 'a'
a = 6b
a = 6(-1/37)
a = -6/37
