The ratio of destroyers to battleships in the navy is 20:15. If the total number of boats is 105, how many battleships are there?

45

Step-by-step explanation:

20:15 the ratio can be turned to a fraction

20/15

simplify

4/3

so now add the numerator and the denominator and get 7

then do 105/7=15

and then you do

4x15=60 (Destroyers)

3x15=45 (Battleships)

45 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

to determine whether a given function is even, we simply substitute x with -x in the expression. if the result after simplification is identical to the original equation, then the function is said to be even other wise odd.

f(-x) = (-x)^2 - (-x) + 8

      = x^2 + x +8

the resulting function is not identical to the original one;

f(-x) ≠ f(x)

therefore, f(x) is not an even function
