Last year at a certain high school, there were 56 boys on the honor roll and 150 girls on the honor roll. This year, the number of boys on the honor roll decreased by 25% and the number of girls on the honor roll decreased by 12%. By what percentage did the total number of students on the honor roll decrease?
Answer:
15.534% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the new number of boys and girls on the honor roll:
56(0.75) = 42 boys
150(0.88) = 132 girls
Find the new total number of students on the honor roll:
42 + 132 = 174
Find the percent decrease by dividing the difference in the number of students by the original number.
There were originally 206 total students on the honor roll. Find the difference:
206 - 174 = 32
Divide this by the original amount:
32/206
= 0.15534
So, the number of students on the honor roll decreased by approximately 15.534%

State if the scenario involves a permutation or a combination. Then find the number of possibilities.
A team of 15 basketball players needs to choose two players to refill the water cooler.
Permutation/Combination:
Answer:
Answer:
Permutation ; 210 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Permutation and combination methods refers to mathematical solution to finding the number of ways of making selection for a group of objects.
Usually, selection process whereby the order of selection does not matter are being treated using permutation, while those which takes the order of selection into cognizance are calculated using combination.
Here, selecting 2 players from 15 ; since order does not matter, we use permutation ;
Recall :
nPr = n! ÷ (n - r)!
Hence,
15P2 = 15! ÷ (15 - 2)!
15P2 = 15! ÷ 13!
15P2 = (15 * 14) = 210 ways
The blueprints of a house have a scale factor of 30. If one side of the house measures 4 inches on the blueprint, how long is the actual side length (in feet)?
A. 7.5 feet
B.10 feet
C. 90 feet
D. 120 feet
If the scale factor is 30, then all you have to do is multiply each measurement by the scale factor. In this case, 4 · 30 = 120.
Which equation describes this graph?
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph clearly has a positive slope. So Answer D couldn't be correct. Next: the y-intercept of this line is (0, -2), so b in the formula y = mx÷ b must be -2.
Therefore the correct equation of this line is
y = x - 2 (choice a)
Find the length represented by x for each pair of similar triangles.
18cm, 9cm, and x
30cm, 15cm, and 25cm
Answer:
15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the traingles are similar, we can find the ratio between the side lengths, and it will be the same for each side.
We can use the side length 9 and 15 to find this ratio. 15/9=5/3. So, the ratio of a side length of the larger triangle to the smaller one is 5/3, so our equation becomes 5/3 = 25/x. Use any method you like to find that x=15.

Farah is x years old. Ibtisam is 3 years younger than Farah. Muna is twice as old as Ibtisam. Write and expression in terms of x, for
(a) Ibtisam's age,
(b) The sum of their three ages, giving your answer in its simplest form.
Answer:
Farah: x
Ibtisam: x-3
Muna: 2(x-3) or 2x-6
Sum of all their ages: 4x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Farah is x, so we don't need an expression for that.
Ibtisam is 3 years younger than Farah, which means that we need to subtract 3 from Farah, and that would be Ibtisam's age. x-3.
Muna is 2 TIMES Ibtisam's age, so we need to multiply whatever expression taht was used for Ibtisam by 2. Put brackets around the equation with 2 outside: 2(x-3). Solve and you get 4x-6
Now, you have all their ages in expression form, now you need to simplify by adding:
x+x+2x-6
We cannot simplify -6, so we put that aside. Add all the x's and you get 4x, insert the minus 6 at the end:
4x-6
Hope this helps!
--Applepi101
Answer:
a) X -3
b) 4x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Farah's age is X so Ibtisam will be X - 3 old since he is 3years younger than Farah
b) Farah is X years old
Ibtisam is X - 3 years old
Muna is 2(X -3) since she is 2 times older than Ibtisam.
the sum of Thier ages will be
X + X -3 + 2(x-3)
= 2x - 3 + 2x - 6
= 4x - 9

"What mathematical ideas are you curious to know more about as a result of takingthis class? Give one example of a question about the material that you'd like to explorefurther, and describe why this is an interesting question to you."
One mathematical idea I've always been curious about is "integration and derivation".
Integration is about assimilating different variables. Derivation is a mathematical process whereby a result is gotten from some initial assumptions.
Integration is used everyday in different aspects of our lives. For example, if a person is travelling from let's say point A to point B, the speed used by the person might vary but through integration, one can easily get the accurate speed.
Through the division of equations into smaller bits, once can use integration to get the answer that one seeks. Architect can use integration in building the right structures at the exact places where the structures fits.
Likewise derivatives can be used by businesses in assessing whether a profit or loss will be made for a particular transaction or sale of product.

Write an equation and solve it to answer each question. A pile of 55 coins consisting of nickels and dimes is worth $3.90. Find the number of each. I only need the equation plz. WILL MARK BRAINLIEST.
Answer:
0.05x + 0.1(55 - x) = 3.9
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 55 coins.
Let x = number of nickels.
The number of dimes is 55 - x.
The value of a nickel is $0.05, and the value of a dime is $0.10.
The value of x nickels is 0.05x
The value of 55 - x dimes is 0.1(55 - x)
The total value of the coins is 0.05x + 0.1(55 - x)
The total value of the coins is $3.90
0.05x + 0.1(55 - x) = 3.9
The curve y=2x^3+ax^2+bx-30 has a stationary point when x=3. The curve passes through the point (4,2).
(A) Find the value of a and the value of b.
#secondderivative #stationarypoints
A stationary point at x = 3 means the derivative dy/dx = 0 at that point. Differentiating, we have
dy/dx = 6x ² + 2ax + b
and so when x = 3,
0 = 54 + 6a + b
or
6a + b = -54 … … … [eq1]
The curve passes through the point (4, 2), which is to say y = 2 when x = 4. So we also have
2 = 128 + 16a + 4b - 30
or
16a + 4b = -96
4a + b = -24 … … … [eq2]
Eliminate b by subtracting [eq2] from [eq1] and solve for a, then for b :
(6a + b) - (4a + b) = -54 - (-24)
2a = -30
a = -15 ===> b = 96

Step-by-step explanation:
I think this might be the correct answer
The number of pupils that like neither tasty-time nor ice cream is 6 if in a class of 70 pupils, 36 like tasty time, 34 like ice cream, 6 like both tasty times.
What is the Venn diagram?It is defined as the diagram that shows a logical relation between sets.
The Venn diagram consists of circles to show the logical relation.
We have:
In a class of 70 pupils, 36 like tasty time, 34 like ice cream, 6 like both tasty time.
Total = 70 pupils
Number of like tasty time = 36
Number of like ice cream = 34
Number of like both = 6
Let x be the total number of pupils that like neither tasty-time nor ice cream
The number of pupils that like ice cream only = 34 - 6 = 28
The number of pupils that like tasty-time only = 36 - 6 = 30
From the Venn diagram:
28 + 30 + 6 + x = 70
x = 70 - 64
x = 6
Thus, the number of pupils that like neither tasty-time nor ice cream is 6 if in a class of 70 pupils, 36 like tasty time, 34 like ice cream, 6 like both tasty times.

F(x)= 0.40 3< x <4
0.45 4< x <6
0.60 6< x <12
1 12< x
Required:
a. What is the pmf of x?
b. Using just the cdf, compute P(3< x <6)and P(4< x)
Answer:
(a)
[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {1} & {3} & {4} & {6} & {12} \ \\ P(x) & {0.30} & {0.10} & {0.05} & {0.15} & {0.40} \ \end{array}[/tex]
(b)
[tex]P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.30[/tex]
[tex]P(4 \le x)=0.60[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]F(x) = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0& x<1 &\\0.30&1 \le x<3 &\\0.40&3 \le x < 4& &0.45 &4 \le x<6 &\\0.60 & 6 \le x < 12 & & 1 & 12 \le x\end{array}\right[/tex]
Solving (a): The pmf
This means that we list out the probability of each value of x.
To do this, we simply subtract the current probability value from the next.
So, we have:
[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {1} & {3} & {4} & {6} & {12} \ \\ P(x) & {0.30} & {0.10} & {0.05} & {0.15} & {0.40} \ \end{array}[/tex]
The calculation is as follows:
[tex]0.30 - 0 = 0.30[/tex]
[tex]0.40 - 0.30 = 0.10[/tex]
[tex]0.45 - 0.40 = 0.05[/tex]
[tex]0.60 - 0.45 = 0.15[/tex]
[tex]1 - 0.60 = 0.40[/tex]
The x values are gotten by considering where the equality sign is in each range.
[tex]1 \le x < 3[/tex] means [tex]x = 1[/tex]
[tex]3 \le x < 4[/tex] means [tex]x = 3[/tex]
[tex]4 \le x < 6[/tex] means [tex]x=4[/tex]
[tex]6 \le x < 12[/tex] means [tex]x = 6[/tex]
[tex]12 \le x[/tex] means [tex]x = 12[/tex]
Solving (b):
[tex](i)\ P(3 \le x \le 6)[/tex]
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(3 \le x \le 6) = F(6) - F(3-)[/tex]
From the given function
[tex]F(6)= 0.60[/tex]
[tex]F(3-) = F(1) = 0.30[/tex]
So:
[tex]P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.60 - 0.30[/tex]
[tex]P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.30[/tex]
[tex](ii)\ P(4 \le x)[/tex]
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(4 \le x)=1 - F(4-)[/tex]
[tex]P(4 \le x)=1 - F(3)[/tex]
[tex]P(4 \le x)=1 - 0.40[/tex]
[tex]P(4 \le x)=0.60[/tex]

Answer:
it is shifted 5 units upward
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-coordinate is a measure of the distance above the x-axis. When 5 is added to a y-coordinate, the point is shifted 5 units upward.
The function y = |x| +5 adds 5 units to the y-value of every point of the graph of y = |x|. The graph of y=|x|+5 is shifted 5 units upward from the parent graph.
