Answer:

Number of boys in 7th grade=34 boys

Number of girls in 7th grade=51 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of students in 7th grade=Number of boys+Number of girls

where;

Total number of students in 7th grade=85 students

Number of boys=x

Number of girls=(1 1/2)×Number of boys=(3/2)×x=1.5x

Replacing;

85=x+1.5x

2.5x=85

x=85/2.5

x=34

Number of boys=x=34

Number of girls=1.5x=1.5×34=51

Number of boys in 7th grade=34 boys

Number of girls in 7th grade=51 girls

Find the slope of the graph of the following: 9x - 3y =15 a. -3 b. 3 c. -1/3 d. 1/3 ***
Mrrafil [7]
To solve this you just need to convert this equation to slope intercept form to do this you just need to isolate y. To isolate -3y subtract 9x from both sides and your problem should look something like this 3y = -9x + 15 the -9 is the slope but you need to simplify that in order to do that divide both sides of the problem by 3 now your problem should look like this y = 3x + 5. The answer is B or positive 3
