Step-by-step explanation:
the greatest common factor (GCF) is 7.
it is 9×7, 7×7 and 11×7.
so the total number of pencils is
7×(9 + 7 + 11) = 7×27 = 189
Two positive numbers are in the ratio 2 : 3. Find the numbers if (a) their sum is 55 and (b) their product is 384.
say the numbers are "a" and "b", we know that they're in the ratio of 2:3, or namely that
[tex]\stackrel{\textit{in the ratio of 2 to 3}}{a~:~b\qquad \qquad 2:3}\qquad \qquad \implies \qquad \cfrac{a}{b}=\cfrac{2}{3}\implies \cfrac{3a}{2}=b \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{their sum is 55}}{a + b = 55}\implies a + \cfrac{3a}{2}=55\implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{2}}{2\left( a + \cfrac{3a}{2} \right)=2(55)} \\\\\\ 2a+3a=110\implies 5a=110\implies a = \cfrac{110}{2}\implies \boxed{a = 22}[/tex]
[tex]\stackrel{\textit{we know that}}{\cfrac{3a}{2}=b}\implies \cfrac{3(22)}{2}=b\implies \boxed{33=b} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{their product is 384}}{ab=384}\implies a\left( \cfrac{3a}{2} \right)=384\implies \cfrac{3a^2}{2}=384\implies 3a^2=768 \\\\\\ a^2=\cfrac{768}{3}\implies a^2=256\implies a=\sqrt{256}\implies \boxed{a=16} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{we know that}}{\cfrac{3a}{2}=b}\implies \cfrac{3(16)}{2}=b\implies \boxed{24=b}[/tex]
The positive numbers for both the parts are obtained as 22,33 and 16,24 respectively.
How to write a linear equation?A linear equation for the given case can be written by assuming any variable as the unknown quantity. Then, as per the given data the required operations are done and it is equated to some value.
(a) As per the question, the numbers can be considered as 2x and 3x respectively.
Then, the equation for their sum can be written as follows,
3x + 2x = 55
⇒ 5x = 55
⇒ x = 11
The numbers are obtained as 2 × 11 = 22 and 3 × 11 = 33.
(b) Similarly, the equation for the product of numbers can be written as,
3x × 2x = 384
⇒ 6x² = 384
⇒ x² = 64
⇒ x = 8
The numbers are obtained as 2× 8 = 16 and 3 × 8 = 24.
The required number for both the cases are 22,33 and 16,24 respectively.

Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7 is correct.
What is Ratio?A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0.
Given that in the sixth grade there are 84 boys and 72 girls
Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7

literally, if you solve this for me my depression will be no more
its been 3 days OF THIS ONE QUESTION
please, and thank you
Answer:
(8,-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
using the principle of vectors, you match each number to their coordinates and add them
so we have (7+1,-12+3)
which is equal to (8,-9)
Answer:
5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula: y2-y1/x2-x1
Labeled:
(1,3)
1 = x2
3 = y2
(7,-12)
7= x1
-12 = x1
In order:
3+12 / 1-7
=15/6
which is simplified to 5/2
so when trying to find the slope of two points you want to use a certent formula which is y2 minus y1 over x2 minus x1 and if the x1 or y1 is negative it will be plus.
first you need to label them and then put them in the order you labeled them to the formula. After subtract or add and if you can simplify it then simplified it to get your answer.

The scatter plot shows the number of minutes people had to wait for service at a restaurant and the number of staff available at he time. A line that models the data is given by the equation y=-1.62x + 18 where y represents the wait time and x represents the number of staff available. Use the equation to make a conjecture about the wait if there are 10 staff members available
A the wait time will be about 18 minutes
B the wait time will be about 5 minutes
C the wait time will be about - 2 minutes
D the wait time will be about 2 minutes
Answer:
D. The wait time will be about 2 mins.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to substitute the x into the equation as we know it is 10.
So, y = (-1.62 × 10) + 18.
Thus, y = -16.2 + 18.
Then, y would equal 1.8.
Therefore you would round to the nearest minute which would be 2.

PLEASE HELP!!!! Identify the mistake and use the correct answer to the problem!!!
Answer:
1 [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
the denominators must be the same so, since 4 goes evenly into 24 we can create an equivalent fraction from 3/4 to 18/24 (multiply numerator and denominator by 6)
now you can add:
[tex]\frac{15}{24}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{18}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{(15+18)}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{33}{24}[/tex]
since the numerator is larger than the denominator this is called an improper fraction and can be changed into a mixed number by dividing 24 into 33
24 goes into 33 one time with a remainder of 9
so 33/24 = 1 [tex]\frac{9}{24}[/tex] wherein 9 and 24 can each have a 3 factored out to make it fully simplified
9÷3 = 3
24÷3 = 8
final answer is 1 [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Answer:
11/8 is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
15/24 + 3/4
Reduce the fraction 15/24 to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
=5/8 +3/4
Least common multiple of 8 and 4 is 8. Convert 5/8 and 3/4 to fractions with denominator 8.
= 5/8 + 6/8
since 5/8 and 6/8 have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
= 5 + 6/8
Add 5 and 6 to get 11.
=11/8

Find the slope
(3,5) and (6,9)
Answer:
4/3 or 1 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find slope, we subtract the y-values (9 - 5), then divide the difference we find from that by the difference of the x-values (6 - 3). So, let's go ahead and do that now. First, what's 9 - 5? Well, the answer is 4. Next, we have to divide this value by 6 - 3, which is equivalent to 3. Then, we divide the two numbers - what is 4 ÷ 3? Well, we can represent this as 4/3, or 1 1/3. Hopefully that's helpful - if you have any questions on that, let me know! :)
Answer:
Slope is 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope or gradient can be found by using several formulas. For this situation, we can use rate of changes between two points also known as rise over run or changes in y over change so in x.
The formula of slope between two points can be expressed as several equations, expressions, etc such as:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{m=\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}[/tex] where m is a variable representing the slope.
Since we are given two points, we are going to use the y2-y1 over x2-x1 formula.
Let (3,5) be (x1,y1,) and (6,9) be (x2,y2) thus the slope is [tex]\displaystyle \large{m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{9-5}{6-3} =\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
Therefore the slope of two points is 4/3.

You do not have to worry about the whole number because they are the same. You have to compare the fractions, so if comparing fractions 10 is less then 11 so 1/10 has a larger space then 1/11. That is how i got the answer. Hope this helps. Am I right?

all triangles are similar but B and D may be the answer
Which of the following equations describes the graph shown above
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
this is in y=Mx+ b form. M stands for the slope and b stands for the y intercept, or where the line intersects with the y-axis.
Going left to right, the line slopes downwards, therefore it is a negative Slope. This narrows down your answer to either a or d. the slope is -1 because you can only ever write x by itself if it means 1x. In this case it is negative so it would look like this: -x
for the y-intercept, simply look at where the line passes through the y-axis. In this case, it is positive 2.
your finished equation would be: y=-x+2

variable rate:
A. is often lower initially
B. offers borrowers more flexible terms.
c. can be used for large purchases.
