Answer:

50 Teachers

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need to find the number of teachers <em>before </em>the new teachers were added. To do so, I created Model 1. On the bottom of the ratios, we have students. On the top, is teachers. The X is the number of teachers we are trying to find. Following the model, I multiplied 2,100 x 1 (2,100) and divided it by 14 to get 150 teachers. Then, I set up a similar model with the new student-teacher ratio (Model 2). From there, I multiplied 2,100 x 2 (4,200) and divided it by 21 to get 200 teachers. Now I have the original number of teachers and the new number of teachers. Subtract the new by the original to find the teachers added and you get the answer of 50 teachers added.

List the potential solutions to 2 ln x = 4 ln 2 from least to greatest.
svp [43]

We have to find the potential solutions to 2 ln x = 4 ln 2 from least to greatest.

Using the properties of ln function.

a \times ln b = ln b^{a}

Therefore, we get

ln x^{2} = ln 2^{4}

ln x^{2} = ln 16

taking antilog on both the sides, we get

x^{2} = 16

So, x = \pm 4

Therefore, the potential solutions to 2 ln x = 4 ln 2 from least to greatest is -4 and 4.

Match each set of points with the slope of the line formed by the ordered pairs.
Fynjy0 [20]

1) The slope of the point (0,0) and (2,1) is 1/2.

2) The slope of the point (0,-1) and (2,-5) is -2.

3) The slope of the point (0,7) and (2,4) is -3/2.

4) The points (-1,3) and (-1,-3) has No slope.

5) The slope of the point (1,-3) and (-1,-3) is zero.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

There are five set of points given in the question.

You need to find out the slope of the line formed by the points.

The formula used to find the slope of a line is given by,

Slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

1) The given points are (0,0) and (2,1)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (0,0)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (2,1)

Slope = \frac{1-0}{2-0}

⇒ 1/2 is the slope.

2) The given points are (0,-1) and (2,-5)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (0,-1)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (2,-5)

Slope = \frac{-5+1}{2-0}

⇒ \frac{-4}{2}

⇒ -2 is the slope.

3) The given points are (0,7) and (2,4)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (0,7)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (2,4)

Slope = \frac{4-7}{2-0}

⇒ -3/2 is the slope.

4) The given points are (-1,3) and (-1,-3)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (-1,3)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (-1,-3)

Slope = \frac{-3-3}{-1+1}

⇒ -6/0 (No slope)

If the denominator of a fraction is zero, the expression is not a legal fraction because it's overall value is undefined.

∴ There is no slope.

5) The given points are (1,-3) and (-1,-3)

(x1,y1) ⇒ (1,-3)

(x2,y2) ⇒ (-1,-3)

Slope = \frac{-3+3}{-1-1}

⇒ 0/-2

∴ The slope is zero.

The measure of an angle is 62.9 What is the measure of a complementary angle?
Llana [10]
By definition, complementary angles are "two angles whose sum is equal to 90 degrees." This can be expressed using the following formula:

(Angle 1) + (Angle 2) = 90

Substitute any known values into the equation:

62.9 + (A2) = 90

Subtract 62.9 from both sides if the equation:

A2 = 27.1

The measure of the complementary angle (A2) is 27.1 degrees.

I hope this helps!

When Θ = 5 pi over 6, what are the reference angle and the sign values for sine, cosine, and tangent?
stira [4]
Note that (5π)/6 radians = 150°. Therefore the given angle is in quadrant 2.

Refer to the figure shown below.

Reference angles are measured relative to the horizontal axis.
Therefore the reference angle in each quadrant is π/6 radians or 30°.
Denote the reference angle as θ'.
Then, in quadrant 1,
cos θ' = √3/2,  sin θ' = 1/2,  tan θ' = √3.

Because we are in quadrant 2,
  sin θ' = π/6;
  sin(5π/6) is positive, but cos (5π/6) and tan (5π/6) are negative.

 Answer:
5π/6 is in quadrant 2.
The reference angle, θ' = π/6.
sin(5π/6) is positive, cosine and tangent are negative.
