Answer:

16 : 28

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12 out of the 28 pupils are female, we can calculate the number of males by subtracting the number of females from the total number of pupils.

28 - 12 = 16

So, there are 16 males in the class. Now, we know that the ratio of males : total is 16 : 28.

I hope this helps! Have a lovely day!! :)

A circle representing a pool is graphed with a center at the origin. Grant enters the pool at point A and swims over to a friend

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

From the diagram above you can see that points A and B have coordinates (8,0) and (-4,6), respectively.

The equation of the line passing through the pointa A and B is:

$y-y_A=\dfrac{y_B-y_A}{x_B-x_A}(x-x_A).$

Then

$y-0=\dfrac{6-0}{-4-8}(x-8),\\ \\y=-\dfrac{6}{12}(x-8),\\ \\y=-\dfrac{1}{2}(x-8),\\ \\y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+4.$

Answer: $y=4-\dfrac{1}{2}x.$

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

58.25

Step-by-step explanation:

C is the total cost of the meal, fifty-eight dollars and twenty-five cents.

First, find the cost of the meal, which is forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents.

To calculate the amount of the sales tax, use the proportion, amount of sales tax divided by cost of meal equals sales tax rate divided by one hundred.

Substitute the known values. Amount of sales tax divided by forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents equals four point five divided by one hundred.

Cross multiply. One hundred times amount of the sales tax equals forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents times four point five.

Divide both sides by one hundred to find that the sales tax equals two dollars and nineteen cents.

Then, to calculate the amount of the tip, use the proportion, amount of tip divided by cost of meal equals tip percent rate divided by one hundred.

Again, substitute the known values into the proportion, amount of tip divided by forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents equals fifteen divided by one hundred.

Then, cross multiply. One hundred times amount of tip equals forty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents times fifteen.

And, divide both sides by one hundred to find that the tip equals seven dollars and thirty-one cents.

Finally, add the amounts together to find the total cost of the meal was fifty-eight dollars and twenty-five cents.

Which figure could be the result of dilating the trapezoid with a scale factor between 0 and 1? On a coordinate plane, a trapezo

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a trapezoid has points (0, 0), (0.5, 2), (1, 2), (1.5, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given trapezoid has vertices at

(0, 0), (1, 4), (2, 4), (3, 0).

We want to choose from the given options the trapezoid with a scale factor between 0 and 1.

If a scale factor of a dilation is between 0 and 1, the size of the image trapezoid will be smaller than the preimage.

When we analyze the coordinates carefully, the answer is, a trapezoid has points (0, 0), (0.5, 2), (1, 2), (1.5, 0).

The reason is that, when we multiply the coordinates of (0, 0), (1, 4), (2, 4), (3, 0) by 0.5, we obtain (0, 0), (0.5, 2), (1, 2), (1.5, 0).

Hence the scale factor is 0.5 and this is between 0 and 1.
