Answer:  17/40 of the students are girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to find the number of girls in the class, we can subtract the number of boys (23) from the total number of students (40) to get:

40 - 23 = 17

There are 17 girls in the class.

Finally, to get the fraction of the girl students of the class, we can divide the number of girls (17) by the total number of students (40) to get:

17 ÷ 40 = \frac{17}{40}

Since the fraction \frac{17}{40} is already simplified, the final answer comes out to be \frac{17}{40}.

A friend is in 5th grade math and asks you to explain exponents with example. What do you say?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

If my friend is in 5th grade and they need an example on exponents I would show them something like this 7 to the 3 power would be equal to 7 times 7 times 7 which also equals 343 or 4 to the 4th power would be equal to 4 times 4 times 4 times 4 which equals 256

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simpiler way to show a younger student how to figure out exponents also. Have a great day :D  

If you need help me and my older brother both share this account.

Write and equati9n of a l8ne that passes through (1,-2) and is perpendicular to -4x+7y=21
yarga [219]

Given:

A line passes through (1,-2) and is perpendicular to -4x+7y=21.

To find:

The equation of that line.

Solution:

We have, equation of perpendicular line.

-4x+7y=21

Slope of this line is

m_1=-\dfrac{\text{Coefficient of x}}{\text{Coefficient of y}}

m_1=-\dfrac{-4}{7}

m_1=\dfrac{4}{7}

Product of slope of two perpendicular lines is -1.

m_1\times m_2=-1

\dfrac{4}{7}\times m_2=-1

m_2=-\dfrac{7}{4}

Now, slope of required line is -\dfrac{7}{4} and it passes through (1,-2). So, the equation of line is

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

where, m is slope.

y-(-2)=-\dfrac{7}{4}(x-1)

4(y+2)=-7(x-1)

4y+8=-7x+7

4y+7x=7-8

7x+4y=-1

Therefore, the equation of required line is 7x+4y=-1.

I like ice cream. I want the best deal when I get ice cream! Howard's Dairy Shack has a sale on. For only $2.50, I can get a con
vitfil [10]
OK so the cone's volume is 12.57 however, the cup's volume is only 12.27. So, if they're both $2.50 then i would get the cone because it has more volume.
