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

Answer:

  18 terms

Step-by-step explanation:

The first given sequence has first term a1=2 and common difference d=5. Its explicit formula is ...

  an = 2 +5(n -1) = 5n -3

We want the n-th term of this sequence to be the same as the n-th term of the sequence defined by ...

  an = 4n +15

We can find n that makes this true by setting the 'an' values equal:

  an = an

  5n -3 = 4n +15

  n = 18 . . . . . . . . . . add 3-4n

The number of terms in each sequence is 18.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The last term in each sequence is 87.

A circular lid has a diameter of 12 inches. What is the exact area of the lid? A. 6π square inches B. 12π square inches C. 24π s
kaheart [24]
The area of any circle is equal to \pi r^2, where r is the radius.

We know that the diameter is 12. The radius is always half of the diameter, so the radius of our circle must be 6.

Substitute 6 for r in our equation and simplify.

π6² = π6×6 = 36π in²
