Answer:

18 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you have to add the 5 and 6 to get 11. And then you divide the total amount of students (33) by the 11 you got earlier which you get a 3 from.Then you multiply the 3 times the number of girls (6) to get 18 girls. And you would multiply the 3 times the 5 if you wanted to find the number of boys in the art class.

Have a most wonderful day!!

Answer:

boys = 15

girls = 18

---

Step-by-step explanation:

g/b = 6/5

g = (6/5)b

g + b = 33

---

g + b = 33

(6/5)b + b = 33

(6/5)b + (5/5)b = 33

(11/5)b = 33

---

b = 33(5/11)

The following function represents the profit P(n), in dollars, that a concert promoter makes by selling tickets for n dollars ea

Gre4nikov [31]

A) zeroes

P(n) = -250 n^2 + 2500n - 5250

Extract common factor:

P(n)= -250 (n^2 - 10n + 21)

Factor (find two numbers that sum -10 and its product is 21)

P(n) = -250(n - 3)(n - 7)

Zeroes ==> n - 3 = 0 or n -7 = 0
Then n = 3 and n = 7 are the zeros.

They rerpesent that if the promoter sells tickets at 3 or 7 dollars the profit is zero.

B) Maximum profit

Completion of squares

n^2 - 10n + 21 = n^2 - 10n + 25 - 4 = (n^2 - 10n+ 25) - 4 = (n - 5)^2 - 4

P(n) = - 250[(n-5)^2 -4] = -250(n-5)^2 + 1000

Maximum ==> - 250 (n - 5)^2 = 0 ==> n = 5 and P(5) = 1000

Maximum profit =1000 at n = 5

C) Axis of symmetry

Vertex = (h,k) when the equation is in the form A(n-h)^2 + k

Comparing A(n-h)^2 + k with - 250(n - 5)^2 + 1000

Vertex = (5, 1000) and the symmetry axis is n = 5.

How do I do this problem ?

katrin2010 [14]

Y=13 Because a line equals 180. 180-11=169/13=13
x=8 because 180+22=202-4=198/11=18

<h3>How to find the free fall formula for a given scenario</h3>

An object experiments a free fall when it is solely accelerated by gravity on the assumption of an <em>uniform</em> acceleration. The formula is described below:

$h =h_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot g\cdot t^{2}$ (1)
