Answer:

Total number of students = 360

Total number of girls = 120

Total number of boys = x / ?

120/240= 1/2

50%

Step-by-step explanation: To find out the percent of the boys you first

subtract the whole amount of students which is 360 students in total to the number of girls (120) resulting 240. 240 in ratio is 1/2. 1/2 is 50%.

(Not sure, if this helps or not. I try my best to answer questions to make the asker to understand! Sorry, I tried. :c)

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (3, 0) and is perpendicular to the line 2x – y = 5?

Lisa [10]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+\dfrac{3}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Let}\ k:y=_1x+b_1\ \text{and}\ l:y=m_2x+b_2.\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\============================\\\\\text{We have}\ 2x-y=5.\\\\\text{Convert to the slope-intercept form y = mx + b:}\\\\2x-y=5\qquad\text{subtract 2x from both sides}\\\\-y=-2x+5\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\y=2x-5\to m_1=2\\\\\text{Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{2}.$

$\text{The equation of the searched line:}\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+b.\\\\\text{The line passes through }(3,\ 0).\\\\\text{Put the coordinates of the point to the equation.}\ x=3,\ y=0:\\\\0=-\dfrac{1}{2}(3)+b\\\\0=-\dfrac{3}{2}+b\qquad\text{add}\ \dfrac{3}{2} \text{to both sides}\\\\b=\dfrac{3}{2}$

(Please help) Which answer describes the polynomial?

lbvjy [14]

$\bf 3x^3+4x^2-7\quad 
\begin{cases}
3x^3\impliedby &3rd~degree\\
4x^2\impliedby &2nd~degree\\
7\impliedby &0~degree
\end{cases}$

notice, there are three terms, therefore is a trinomial.

the term that has the highest degree, has a degree of 3, therefore the degree of the polynomial as a whole is 3, or a cubic degree.

so, is a cubic trinomial.
