Salutations!

<span>The ratio of boys to girls in a school is 5:4. if there are 180 students, how many girls are there?

Let the number of girls and boys be 'x'.

</span>5x + 4x = 180
<span>
Add 5 and 4

</span>9x = 180
<span>
</span>x = 20
<span>
Now, multiply the ratios by 20.

Boys = 20 </span>× 5 = 100

Girls = 20 × 4 = 80.

There were 80 girls.

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!

Answer:

The time at which the two trains will meet is 1 hour and 24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The distances between the two trains = 196 miles

The direction of the two trains = Towards each other

The speed of one of the trains = 80 miles per hour

The speed of the other train = 60 miles per hour

Let 't' represent the time at which the two trains meet, we have;

80·t + 60·t = 196

∴ 140·t = 196

t = 196/140 = 7/5

The time at which the two trains will meet, t = 7/5 hours = 1.4 hours = 1 hour, 24 minutes.

| x-3 | &lt; x-3<br><br> can someone give a step by step process on how to do this?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

There are no solutions to the inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 3| < x – 3

1. Separate the inequality into two separate ones.

(1) x – 3 < x – 3

(2) x – 3 < -(x – 3)  

2. Solve each equation separately

(a) Equation (1)

\begin{array}{rcl}x - 3 & < & x - 3\\x & < & x\\\end{array}\\\text{This is impossible. No solutions exist.}

(b) Equation (2)

\begin{array}{rcl}x - 3 & < & -(x - 3)\\x - 3 & < & -x + 3\\x &

For example, if x = 0, we get  

|0 - 3| < 0 - 3 or

3 < -3

Can someone please explain how to go the answers for this
Effectus [21]

Answer:

A=3, B=4, C=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

So A represents the amplitude, which is the distance between the midline (C), the middle of the graph, and the maximum (or minimum). B is the distance of the period of the graph. In this case, we see that the midline is C=-5 because that is the halfway point of the sine function. We also see that the period distance is B=5-1=4, so our period would be 2π/4 or π/2. Our amplitude would be A=3 because |a|=|-5-(-2)|=|-5+2|=|-3|=3. Observe the graph to see this visually.

Find a polynomial function p of lowest​ degree, having rational​ coefficients, with the given zero. 5i
weqwewe [10]
If we have one zero of +5i, we also have to have its conjugate which is -5i.  Therefore, the factors that we will FOIL to get that polynomial are (x+5i)(x-5i).  That distribution results in x^{2} -25 i^{2}.  I'm sure by now you know that i squared is equal to -1, so -25(-1) = 25.  So our polynomial is x^{2} +25=y
