1:3 is the ratio to boys and girls. I know that 1/4 must be girls. 3/4 will be boys.

Divide 236 by 4.

236/4= 59

Multiply that by 3.

59*3= 177

177 of the students are boys.

I hope this helps!

If 3x^2 + y^2 = 7 then evaluate d^2y/dx^2 when x = 1 and y = 2. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Use the hyphen symbol, -,
S_A_V [24]
Taking y=y(x) and differentiating both sides with respect to x yields

\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[3x^2+y^2\bigg]=\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[7\bigg]\implies 6x+2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=0

Solving for the first derivative, we have

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=-\dfrac{3x}y

Differentiating again gives

\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[6x+2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\bigg]=\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[0\bigg]\implies 6+2\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)^2+2y\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=0

Solving for the second derivative, we have

\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=-\dfrac{3+\left(\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)^2}y=-\dfrac{3+\frac{9x^2}{y^2}}y=-\dfrac{3y^2+9x^2}{y^3}

Now, when x=1 and y=2, we have

\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}\bigg|_{x=1,y=2}=-\dfrac{3\cdot2^2+9\cdot1^2}{2^3}=\dfrac{21}8\approx2.63

A loaf of bread is cut into slices of equal size. Some of the loaf is used in a recipe and 2/12 of the loaf is used to make a sa
gtnhenbr [62]
Answer:
Fraction of bread used in the recipe is 3/12 which can be further simplified into 1/4

Explanation:
The original loaf of bread is 100% complete (no fraction is taken from it yet). This means that the value of the original loaf is 12/12

Now, assume that the fraction used in the recipe is x

We know that:
2/12 of the loaf was used in making a sandwich
7/12 of the oaf was put in the refrigerator

Therefore:
complete loaf = fraction used in making a sandwich + fraction used in making recipe + fraction put in refrigerator
12/12 = x + 2/12 + 7/12
12/12 = x + 9/12
x = 12/12 - 9/12
x = 3/12 

Hope this helps :)
