The most direct form to graph a line, is to find two points of it and connect them with a line.
Here we have:
Let's find the point where x = 0. To do this, we replace the x in the equation by 0:
We have our first point: (0, -6)
Next let's find the point where y = 0. Again, we replace y in by 0 in the equation:
We have our second point, (3, 0)
Now all we have to do is plot the points (0, -6) and (3, 0) in the plane, and connect them with a line, and then the line is graphed
The line should look like this:
Answer:
1920 men are there in college.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the statement: At a certain college, the ratio of men to women is 6 to 5. If there are 3520 total students.
Ratio states that it is just a comparison between, or a relating of, two different things.
i.e a to b or a: b
Ratio of men to women:
Men : Women = 6: 5
Let x be the number.
Total number of Men in college = 6x and Total number of women = 5x
Since, total number of students = 3520
⇒
Combine like terms;
11x = 3520
Divide by 11 on both sides we get;
x = 320
Therefore, total number of men in college = 6x = 6(320) = 1920
