Answer:

25 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x denote number of boys

and

y denote number of girls

According to the statement that total 45 people came,

x+y = 45 => Eqn 1

And total paid amount was 175

So,

5x + 3y = 175 => Eqn 2

For solving, We will use the substitution method

So, from eqn 1

x = 45-y

Putting value of x in eqn 2

5(45-y) +3y = 175

225 - 5y + 3y = 175

-2y+225 = 175

-2y = 175-225

-2y = -50

2y = 50

y = 25

Putting y =25 in eqn 1

x+25 = 45

x = 45 - 25

x = 20

As y= 25

So, 25 girls came to the dance ..

12345 [234]

Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + x^2 = 13^2

144 + x^2 = 169

x^2 = 25

square root both sides

x = 5

to check, do 12^2 + 5^2 =169

sqrt of 169 is 13

A rectangular garden is extended 4% on the long sides and 8% on the short sides. To the nearest hundredth of a percent, by what

liq [111]

Answer: 12.32%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $x$ is the original long side and $y$ is the original short side.

2. The area of the original rectangle is $xy$ .

3. The rectangle is extended 4% on the long sides and 8% on the short sides. therefore, the new long side is:

$\frac{104}{100}x=\frac{26}{25}x$

4. And the new short side is:

$\frac{108}{100}y=\frac{27}{25}y$

5. The new area is:

$(\frac{26}{25}x)(\frac{27}{25}y)=\frac{702}{625}xy$

6. The percentage of increase is calculated by substracting the new area and the original area:

$\frac{702}{625}xy-xy=0.1232xy$

7. The result is:

(0.1232)(100)=12.32%
