Answer:

28 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Given girls : boys ===> 7 : 12

i.e.

fraction all children who are girls = 7 / (7 + 12) = 7 / 19

fraction all children who are boys = 12 / (7 + 12) = 12 / 19

given that there are 76 children

number of girls = fraction of all children who are girls x total number of children

= 7/19   x   76

= 28 girls

Determine if the two lines with the given slope are parallel, perpendicular, or neither. Circle your
Sati [7]

Answer:

As the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

Therefore, the correct answer is ''neither''.

Hence, option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m₁ = 3/2

m₂ = -3/2

We know that when two lines are parallel, they have equal slopes

But

m₁ ≠ m₂

3/2 ≠ -3/2

As the m₁ and m₂ are not equal.

Hence, the lines are not parallel.

We know that when two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1.

Let us check the product of two slopes m₁ and m₂

m₁ × m₂ = 3/2 × -3/2

              = -9/4

              = -2.25

As

m₁ × m₂ ≠ -1

Thus, the lines are not perpendicular.

Conclusion:

As the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

Therefore, the correct answer is ''neither''.

Hence, option C is correct.

Factorise 2p^2 - p - 10<br> (2p squared)
velikii [3]

2p² - p - 10 = 0

2 = a

- 1 = b

- 10 = c

To factor, find two numbers that multiply to equal a·c and also that have a sum of b

2p² + 4p - 5p - 10 = 0

2p (p + 2) - 5 (p + 2) = 0

<h3>Answer: ( 2p - 5 ) ( p + 2 ) = 0</h3>
