Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

A total of 273 students participated in a survey regarding the selection of a new school mascot: Bulldog, Lion, or Tiger.

Let t represent the number of students who chose Tiger,

b represent the students who opted for Bulldog,

and l represent those who selected Lion.

Therefore, we have t + b + l = 273.

It is stated that four times as many students selected Bulldog as Tiger,

leading us to b = 4t.

Additionally, twice as many chose Lion compared to Tiger, giving us l = 2t.

Combining these equations results in t + 4t + 2t = 273.

This simplifies to 7t = 273.

Upon dividing both sides by 7, we find

t = 39.

The number of students selecting Lion is then given by 2t,

which calculates to 2 × 39 = 78.

Thus, the correct answer is:

B) 78 students

Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day. He plays basketball for 25 minutes longer than he play
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

Part A:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

Part B: 35 minutes

Part C: No

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Part A:

Eric spends a total of 95 minutes daily playing basketball and volleyball combined.

x+y= 95

Where:

x =minutes Eric plays basketball

y = minutes he allocates to volleyball

He dedicates 25 minutes more to basketball compared to volleyball.

x = y+25

Equations are:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

  • Part B:

Substituting x=y+25 into the first equation yields:

(y+25) + y =95

Solving for y

y+25+y =95

25+2y=95

2y=95-25

2y=70

y = 70/2

y = 35 minutes

Part C: No

If x = 35

x+y= 95

35+y =95

y= 95-35

y = 60 minutes

Inserting y=60 into the other equation:

x = y+25

35 = 60+25

35 ≠85

Which rule describes the composition of transformations that maps ΔABC to ΔA"B"C"?
babunello [11817]

Answer:

The transformation is a reflection over the x-axis followed by a translation 6 units left and 2 units down.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the order of transformations from ΔABC to ΔA"B"C", note that the figure first changes to ΔA'B'C', and then to ΔA''B''C''.

The transition from ΔABC to ΔA'B'C' involves a reflection over the x-axis, as ΔA'B'C' appears as a mirror image flipped vertically.

Next, moving from ΔA'B'C' to ΔA''B''C'' entails shifting the figure left by 6 units and downward by 2 units. This matches a translation by -6 in the x direction and -2 in the y direction.

Thus, the accurate description is:

Reflection across the x-axis followed by a translation of -6 units in x and -2 units in y.

Emma earns $6 each time she mows the lawn and $8 per hour for babysitting. She is saving up to buy a new pair of jeans that cost
zzz [12365]

Answer:

The illustration provided shows the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> number of times Emma cuts the grass

y ------> hours Emma spends babysitting

it is known that

6x+8y\geq 48 ------> represents the inequality of the scenario

The solution is the shaded region above the solid line where both x and y are positive

The equation for the solid line is represented as 6x+8y=48

The slope of the line is negative m=-\frac{3}{4}

The y-intercept is at the point (0,6) (the y-value when x is zero)

The x-intercept is at (8,0) (the x-value when y equals zero)

therefore
