Answer:

100 boys at the concert

Step-by-step explanation:

When changing the ratio between the number of boys to the number of girls, it always has to be equivalent to the original ratio 2:7

So, convert the ratio 2:7 to a different ratio, but it still has to be equivalent to the ratio 2:7. By doing that, multiply both sides of the 2:7 ratio by 50:

  2   :   7

×50   ×50

To get:

100:350  ⇒  This ratio means that the ratio between the number of boys to the number of girls is now 100:350, but that’s okay to have because it’s still equivalent to the original 2:7 ratio.

So, using the new ratio 100:350, this means that there are 100 boys at the concert and 350 girls at the concert, and 350 is 250 more than 100 which proves what the question is asking. So there are 100 boys at the concert.

<u>Answer:</u> 100 boys at the concert

List the measurements of three different rectangular prisms that each have a surface area of 20 square units.
Kitty [74]

So we can use the formula 2lw +2wh+ 2lh, which is the surface area formula and we can set that to equal 20. 2lw +2wh+ 2lh=20

lw+wh+lh= 10

Let’s isolate L

Lw+Lh=10-wh

Let’s distribute L

L(w+h)=10-wh

L=(10-wh)/(w+h)

You can use this formula to plug in values for w and h and it will work as long as their products are less than 10

Here is a system of equations. (y=x-6 y=-x-2 Graph the system. Then write its solution. Note that you can also answer "No soluti
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Example system with no solution

We're asked to find the number of solutions to this system of equations:

\begin{aligned} y &= -3x+9\\\\ y &= -3x-7 \end{aligned}  

y

y

​  

 

=−3x+9

=−3x−7

​  

 

Without graphing these equations, we can observe that they both have a slope of -3−3minus, 3. This means that the lines must be parallel. And since the yyy-intercepts are different, we know the lines are not on top of each other.

There is no solution to this system of equations.

Example system with infinite solutions

We're asked to find the number of solutions to this system of equations:

\begin{aligned} -6x+4y &= 2\\\\ 3x-2y &= -1 \end{aligned}  

−6x+4y

3x−2y

​  

 

=2

=−1

​  

 

Interestingly, if we multiply the second equation by -2−2minus, 2, we get the first equation:

\begin{aligned} 3x-2y &= -1\\\\ \blueD{-2}(3x-2y)&=\blueD{-2}(-1)\\\\ -6x+4y &= 2 \end{aligned}  

3x−2y

−2(3x−2y)

−6x+4y

​  

 

=−1

=−2(−1)

=2

​  

 

In other words, the equations are equivalent and share the same graph. Any solution that works for one equation will also work for the other equation, so there are infinite solutions to the system.
