Answer:

48 students in the class

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of girls to boys is 3 : 5 = 3x : 5x ( x is a multiplier ) , then

5x = 3x + 12 ( 12 more boys than girls )

Subtract 3x from both sides )

2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 6

Then

number of girls = 3x = 3 × 6 = 18

number of boys = 5x = 5 × 6 = 30

total students in class = 18 + 30 = 48

Divide the number 20 into two parts (not necessarily integers) in a way that makes the product of one part with the square of th
Ilya [14]

Answer:

13 1/3 and  6 2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 parts be x and (20 - x).

So x^2(20 - x) must be a maximum.

y = x^2(20 - x)

y = 20x^2 - x^3

Finding the derivative):

y' =  40x - 3x^2 = 0   for  maxm/minm value.

x( 40 - 3x) = 0

40 - 3x = 0

3x = 40

x = 40/3.

This is a maximum because the second derivative y" =  40 - 6x = 40 - 6(40/3)) is negative.

So the 2 numbers are 13 1/3 and  6 2/3.

Find the domain for each expression. (1/x)+5<br> 1/x<br> X+5/x+5<br> X^2/x<br> 7/(x-2)
wel

Using it's concept, it is found that the domain for the expressions is, respectively, given by:

x \neq 0, x \neq 0, (-\infty, \infty), (-\infty, \infty), x \neq 2

<h3>What is the domain of a function?</h3>

It is the <u>set that contains all possible input values</u>.

In a fraction, the denominator cannot be zero, hence:

  • The domain of the first two expressions is of x \neq 0.
  • The domain of the last expression is of x \neq 2.

The third expression can be simplified, as:

(x + 5)/(x + 5) = 1.

The same is true for the fourth, as:

x²/x = 1.

Neither has any restriction, hence their domain is all real numbers, represented by (-\infty, \infty).

#2 which table describes a function ??
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

H.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function can only have one y-output per x-input (However, it is ok for one y-output to have multiple x-inputs). The only table that doesn't contain two y-outputs for one x-input is H.

Will give brainliest for right answer!!
Katen [24]

Answer:

3012 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y = number of books produced and sold  

Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost = 32379 + 10.75*y  

Total sales = 21.50*y  

Set these equal to each other and solve for y

 

21.50*y = 32379 + 10.75*y

10.75*y = 32379

B = 3012

 

The publisher must produce and sell 3012 books.
