Answer:

<em>There were 204 ladies and 136 gentlemen in the conference</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set the variables:

L = number of ladies in the conference

G = number of gentlemen in the conference

We know 340 people participated in the conference, thus:

L + G = 340         [1]

We are also given the ratio of ladies and gentleman as 3:2, thus:

L/G = 3/2

Cross-multiplying:

2L = 3G        [2]

From [1]:

L = 340 - G

Substituting in [2]:

2(340 - G) = 3G

Operating:

680 - 2G = 3G

5G = 680

G = 680/5 = 136

G = 136

L = 340 - 136 = 204

L = 204

There were 204 ladies and 136 gentlemen in the conference

What is 4x-4y/2=x+2 in slope intercept form?
Alla [95]

Answer:

The equation would be y = 3/2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer in slope-intercept form, simply solve for y.

4x-4y/2=x+2 ----> Subtract 4x from both sides

-4y/2=-3x+2 ----> Multiply both sides by 2

-4y = -6x + 4 -----> Divide by -4

y = 3/2x - 1

The bagel shop sells special bagel sandwiches for $7 and plain bagels for $2. Last saturday, they sold 100 items and made $385.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Number of special bagel sandwiches = 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x,y denote number of special bagel sandwiches and plain bagels respectively.

The bagel shop sold 100 items.

x+y=100\\y=100-x

Also, The bagel shop made $385.

7x+2y=385

Put y=100-x in 7x+2y=385

7x+2(100-x)=385\\7x+200-2x=385\\5x=385-200\\5x=185\\x=\frac{185}{5}\\x=37

So,

Number of special bagel sandwiches = 37

How do i write 12.009 in a word form?
tia_tia [17]
Your answer will be twelve and nine thousandths because in place value decimals are like tenths, hundredths, thousandths. In place value for regular numbers are ones, tens, hundreds and so on. So, when you have 12.009, you are going to separate the decimals with the numbers. Then, write down the number in words which would be twelve. Now, go to the decimal and write that down, which is 9 thousandths. Finally, combine the both of them to get: twelve and nine thousandths.

Hope this helps :) 
and good luck

Find m2ABC<br> (3x + 8)<br><br> (5x - 40)
Virty [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 8) =(5x - 40)

Remove the brackets and replace 3x with -40 and -40 with 3x.

40 + 8 =5x - 3x  (Remember that when you replace, the signs change from negative to positive and vise versa)

Solve for x. x= -24

Replace x with its value.

3(-24)+ 8= -64

5(-24) - 40= -160
