This a problem of GCF ( greatest common factor)
We have 28 girls and 35 boys.
28 is divisible by 2, 7 and 14 →→28 = 2x2x7
35 is divisible by 5 and 7 →→→→35 = 5x7
We notice that the greatest COMMON factor is 7.
If we divide the 28 girls by 7 we will get 7 teams with 4 girls in each team 
If we divide the 35 boys by 7 we will get 7 teams with 5 boys in each team 

Answer: 7 teams of girls and each team has 4 girls
      And 7 teams of boys and each team has 5 boys

What is the solution to 3/(2x+1) = 9/3x?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Solution x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3 / (2x+1) = 9 / 3x

Cross multiply

3(3x) = 9(2x + 1)

Distributive property

9x = 18x + 9

Subtract 18x from both sides

-9x = 9

Divide both sides by -9

x = -1

Write the Slope- Intercept equation of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the given line (0, -
damaskus [11]

Answer:

y+4=-3(x+0) or y=-3x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

so you have to make it in form y=mx+b

that would be y=1/3x-2/3

for a perpendicular line, you would need to find the opposite reciprocal of the slope

3/1 or 3 would be the reciprocal, so to make it opposite would be -3

So it would be y-y1 = m(x-x2)

fill it in with the coordinates (0,-4)

y+4=-3(x-0)

to get it to slope intercept form you have to simplify, and after that you get y=-3x-4
