Answer:

75 more girls.

Explanation:-

Given:- Ratio of girls to boys = 5:3

And, the number of boys= 300

Let boys be 4x and girls be 5x

So, 4x = 300 (Given)

x = 300/4 = 75

Thus number of girls:- 5x = 5×75= 375 girls

now you take the 375 girls minus the 300 boys.

375-300 = 75 Girls more

I NEED HELP!!! What is is this ----&gt; 3x - 3y = 3 12x + 8y = -8 <br> x = what <br> y = what
fgiga [73]

Answer:

3x = 3 + 2y -------------> 3x - 2y = 3 {subtracted 2y from each side of top equation}

(-4/3)x + y = -2/3 ------> -4x + 3y = -2 {multiplied bottom equation by 3}

3x - 2y = 3 ------> 12x - 8y = 12 {multiplied top equation by 4}

-4x + 3y = -2-----> -12x + 9y = -6 {multiplied bottom equation by 3}

12x - 8y = 12

-12x + 9y = -6

--------------

y = 6 {added the two equations}

3x = 3 + 2y {original top equation}

3x = 3 + 2(6) {substituted 6, in for y, into top equation}

3x = 3 + 12 {multiplied}

3x = 15 {added}

x = 5 {divided each side by 3}

x = 5 and y = 6
