The number is seven because 7×7 = 49 and 49-3 = 46
The ratio of boys to girls in simplest form is
14:16
14/16
Divide through by 2
7/8
So the ratio of boys to girls in simplest form is 7/8
The answer would be 1008. 24x42
To be divisible by 63, it must be divisible by both 7 and 9, since 7x9 = 63. Factor the expression, simplify, and see if both 7 and 9 are factors, which would make it divisible by both 7 and 9. (163 - 83)(43 + 23) = [(24)3 - (23)3] [(22)3 + 23] = (212 - 29)(26 + 23) = [29(23 - 1)] [23(23 + 1)] = [29(8 - 1)] [23(8 + 1)] = 29(7) 23 (9) = 63(212) It is a multiple of 63, and hence divisible by 63.
The average rate of change of a function f(x) on the interval [a,b] is given by:
f(b) - f(a)
-------------
b-a
In this specific case, a=2 and b = 3.
f(2) = -3 and f(3) = -1.
Thus, the average rate of change here of f(x) on the interval [2,3] is:
-1 - (- 3) 2
------------- = ------------- = 2 (answer)
3-2 1
