We can use trial or error method here...

If we take 4 table, 4*5 = 20 and 4*7 = 28. 20+28 = 48.
20 : 28 = 5 : 7

So, there are 20 boys and 28 girls in a school play and there are 8 girls more than boys.

If you look over tables and try it out, only 4 table works for the given ratio.

const2013 [10]

Answer:30° - 3d ≤ 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to represent the rate of temperature decrease in degrees .We will represent this by "d" which stands for degree.

According to the question , temperature decreased at a constant rate in the next three days

Therefore , the total decreasing in three days = 3d degree i.e 3 *d=3d

Temperature on Monday = 30°

Then the temperature on Thursday is this = 30° - 3d

Since, The swimming pool is open when the high temperature is higher than 20°=≤20

= 30° - 3d ≤ 20°

This is the required inequality to determine the rate of temperature decrease in degrees Celsius per day, "d"from Monday to Thursday.

If 1=3 2=3 3=5 4=4 5=4 then 6=?​
Mama L [17]

The value of the 6 is 3.

If you write 1 in word then you will write one and if you count the letter it will give you 3

Similarly, if you write the numbers 2,3,4,5 in word and count the number you will get 3,5,4,4 respectively.

<h3>What are the counting letters?</h3>

counting Letters provides a perfect way to introduce number words to beginning readers, as well as discuss the concepts of letters and words.

So, if you write 6 in words you will write six and on counting the letter you will get 3.

Hence, 6 = 3 ans.

Therefore the value of the 6 is 3.
