4 : 5

300 : ?

Divide 300 by 4 to find out what '1 part' would count as:

300/4 = 75

Multiply this by 5

75 x 5 = 375

Add the two values together

375 + 300 = 675

There are 675 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of boys=300

Ratio of boys to girls=4:5

let the number of girls=y

300/y=4/5

Cross multiply

300×5=4×y

1500=4y

Divide through both sides by 4

1500/4=4y/4

374=y

Number of girls is 375

Total number of students=Number of boys+Number of girls

Total number of students=300+375

Total number of students=375

bobby’s christmas list had 3 more than twice as many items on it than johnny’s list. johnny asked for 8 fewer items than bobby.
Nataly [62]

Answer:

<em>Johnny had </em><em>5</em><em> items and Bobby had </em><em>13</em><em> items.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that Johnny has x items and Bobby has y items in their list.

Bobby had 3 more than twice as many items on it than Johnny. So,

\Rightarrow y=3+2x  ----------1

Johnny asked for 8 fewer items than bobby. So,

\Rightarrow y-8=x  -----------2

Putting the value of x from equation 2 in equation 1, we get

\Rightarrow y=3+2(y-8)

\Rightarrow y=3+2y-16

\Rightarrow 2y-y=16-3

\Rightarrow y=13

Putting the value of y in equation 2,

\Rightarrow 13-8=x

\Rightarrow x=5

So, Johnny had 5 items and Bobby had 13 items.

Given the functions f(n) = 11 and g(n) = -2(n - 1), combine them to create an arithmetic sequence, an, and solve for the 31st te
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Option A is correct

a_n = 11-2(n-1) and  a_{31} = -49

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the functions:

f(n) = 11

g(n) = -2(n-1)

then;

combine them to create an arithmetic sequence i.e,

a_n = f(n)+g(n)

⇒a_n = 11-2(n-1) where n is the number of terms

To find the 31st term.

Substitute n =31 we have;

a_n = 11-2(31-1)

⇒a_{31}=11-60 = -49

Therefore, we have an arithmetic sequence,

a_n = 11-2(n-1) and  a_{31} = -49
