Thirty-five percent of students at Jones High School ride the bus. Two hundred seventy-three students ride the bus. How many students go to Jones High School? A) 96 B) 560 C) 694 D) 780

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: D) 780 is the right option. The total number of students go to Jones High School=780.


Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total students go to the Jones High School be 'x'.

Percentage of students ride the bus=35%

Number of students ride the bus= 273

According to the given question,

35% of x=273

\n\Rightarrow(35)/(100)*\ x=273\n\n\Rightarrow\ x=(273*100)/(35)\n\Rightarrow\ x=780

he total number of students go to Jones High School=780.
Answer 2
Answer: when I solved it I got 750.(273÷.35=780)

Write one example of a linear function and one example of a non-linear function. (Use x and y as the variables)

Answers


Linear functions:

y = 2 x

y = 3 x

y = 4 x + 5

6 y - 7 = 8 x + 9


Non-linear functions:

y = 1 / x

y = 2 log(x)

y = 3 x²

y = √x

How do you solve this question y=50x+10

Answers

First you need to understand what "solve" means, so that you'll know a solution when you see it.

A "solution" to an equation means a number that you can write in place of the
variable (the letter) and have the equation be true.

If the equation has two variables in it, line 'x'and 'y', then a solution is a set of
two numbers ... one for 'x' and one for 'y' ... that you can write in their places
and have the equation be true.  That's the kind of equation you have here.

A solution to this equation is a pair ofnumbers ... one for 'x' and one for 'y' ...
that we can write in their places and have the equation be true.

Now, you may have learned that an equation with 'x' and 'y' in it can be drawn
as a graph. The part you have to think about until it blows your mind is this:
EVERY POINT on that graph has an 'x' number and a 'y' number for its
location on the graph, and every one of those pairs of (x, y) numbers is
a solution to the equation !

Here, let me show you examples.
Pull a number out of the air for me.
Did you say ' 1 ' ?   Fine.  'x' is ' 1'.
Take the equation:                               y = 50x + 10
Put '1' in the place of 'x':                      y = 50(1) + 10 
                                                             y = 50 + 10
                                                             y = 60
There's one pair of numbers:  x=1, y=60.

Throw another number at me.  Any number.
Did you say zero ?  Great  'x' is zero now.
Take the equation:                               y = 50x + 10
Put '0' in the place of 'x':                      y = 50(0) + 10
                                                             y  =  10
There's another pair of numbers:  x=0, y=10.

Both of these pairs of numbers are solutions to your equation.  You can
find as many more solutions as you want.  Just pull a number out of the
air, write it into the equation in place of 'x', figure out what 'y' is, and there
you have another solution !

Toru takes his dog to be groomed. The fee to groom the dog is $75 plus 6.75% tax. Is $80 enough to pay For the service?

Answers

The fee is $75. Now you need to find the tax.
Tax is 6.75% 
6.75% of $75 can be calculated as .0675 x $75 = $5.06
Add the tax of $5.06 to the fee of $75 and the cost is $80.06 so $80 is not enough

A pair of shoes originally cost $42 but is on sale for 33% off. What is the new price?

Answers

Simple...this is a discount problem.

To find the answer to this problem you can find the net price percentage of the shoes by doing...

100%-33%=67%

Now...multiply the original price by the net price percentage...

$42*0.67=$28.14

Thus, the shoes after the discount cost, $28.14
The shoes now cost 28.14. There are many ways of calculating your discount and final purchase price. One way is to multiply 42 dollars by 33 percent, and then divide the answer by one hundred, then subtract that result from the original price. If you follow these steps, you come up with your answer. You save 13.86.

Pls help me!!!. find the measurements of angle 1,2and3

Answers

Angle one is a angle pair with the angle value of 70 degrees. This means that angle one has to be the supplement of 70 degrees (180-70), which is 110 degrees.

Angle 2 is an alternate interior angle pair with 70 degrees, which means that the angle is the same as the 70 degree angle. 

Angle 3 is vertical angle to angle 2, so that means angle 3 is 70 degrees.
