7 0

Answer:

1/7 or 14.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

30% of 750 = 225  (females who study chemistry)

60% of 2250 = 1350  (males who study chemistry)

1575 = total students studying chemistry

P (female chemistry student) = 225/1575 = 1/7 (simplified)

1/7 = 14.3%

Mathematical model in real life
matrenka [14]
Well, one example would be how much space is in a cardboard box, to ship something to a friend or relative. 
We know the three measurements:
L = Length, W = Width, and H = Height.

And the formula for a volume of a cube is:
V = L*W*H

So say that:
L = 6 , W = 10 Feet, and H = 3 Feet.
By using the formula above we get the equation: V = 6*10*3
And that equals: 180 Feet.
So the volume of the box, or the space you have to send something is 180 square feet. 

Does this help?

Select an equation for this graph please help me.
MrRissso [65]

A is the answer.

First, figure out all the coordinates for the points marked red( I Did this for all except first one, which was not on the right point)

They were:

-1,1

0,2

1,4

2,8

3,16.

Then, we must do trial and error for each of the options until we find one that fits perfectly. Luckily, the first option was right!

Hope this helps

11. The completion of a chemical reaction is expressed by the equation y = 300 - 4x - XP, where y is
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The reaction ca occur at 10 degree Celsius or -14 degree Celsius.                                          

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The completion of a chemical reaction is expressed by the equation

y = 300 - 4x -x^2

where y is  the number of seconds needed to complete the reaction and x is the temperature in degrees Celsius  at which the reaction occurs.

We have to find the temperature at which the reaction occurs, if the completion time of reaction is 160 seconds.

Putting y = 160

160 = 300 - 4x -x^2\\x^2 + 4x  - 140 = 0\\x^2 + 14x -10x -140 = 0\\x(x+14)-10(x+14)=0\\(x-10)(x+14) = 0\\(x-10) =0, (x+14) =0\\x = 10, x = -14

Thus, the reaction ca occur at 10 degree Celsius or -14 degree Celsius.
