Known Facts:

  • 3/4 as many boys as girls in a class
  • Five students in the class

Variables:

  • b: boys
  • g: girls

Let us set up some equations:

  • b + g = 35
  • b = (3/4)g

Now let us solve the equation:

   b + g =35

   (3/4)g + g = 35

    (7/4)g = 35

     g = 20

Therefore there are 20 girls in a class of 35!

Good day and I hope that helped!

What restrictions are there on the range of the function H(w) below?
Eddi Din [679]
The function, named H(w) is defined by a graph that is a descendant line, that belongs only to the first quadrant. As w approaches to 0 by the right, the function approaches to + infinity. It never touches the vetical axis, decreases and approaches to 0 when w approaches to infinity. The graph never touches the horizontal - axis.

Then, the function is defined only for positive values of w and H(w) is always positive.

Then, the answer is H(w) > 0, this is the option C.

Choose the equation that represents the graph below: (1 point) Graph of a line passing through points 0 comma 6 and 9 comma 0 y
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Equation of a line y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6 passing through (0,6) and (9,0).

Explanation:

Given the two points (0, 6) and (9 ,0).

To find the equation for the given two points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}) is,

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1}); where m is the slope and is given by:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

First find the slope m:

m=\frac{0-6}{9-0} =\frac{-6}{9} =\frac{-2}{3}

Substitute this value in equation of line:

y-6=\frac{-2}{3} (x-0) or

y-6=\frac{-2}{3} x

⇒ y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6

Therefore, the equation for the given point is:  y=\frac{-2}{3}x+6
