Answer:

number of boys = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys to girls is 5 : 7

Sum of the ratio is 12

The total students in the class is 36 students which include girls and boys.

since the ratio of boys to girls is known the number of boys and the number of girls can be computed.

Total student = 36

number of boys = 5/12 × 36

number of boys = 5 × 3

number of boys = 15

The number of girls = 36 - 15 = 21

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

A. It would become a different atom.

C. Its charge would increase by 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding or removing protons from the nucleus changes the charge of the nucleus and changes that atom's atomic number. So, adding or removing protons from the nucleus changes what element that atom is! For example, adding a proton to the nucleus of an atom of hydrogen creates an atom of helium.

The answer is 54
Because When the sum of two angles is equal to 90 degrees, they are called complementary angles. For example, 30 degrees and 60 degrees are complementary angles. And it say that that angle equals 32 so just do 32-90 you get 58 but it says 6x plus 4 then you do 58-4 you get 54
