Ok so ratios are poroportion

boys/total=boys/100
total=17+8=25
boys=17
17/25=boys/100
multiply both sides by 100
68=boys


68 boys

So the total number of students equals 8+17 = 25 students
Proportionally:
\frac{17}{25} =  \frac{x}{100}

Thus,
x =  \frac{17*100}{25} = 68 boys out of the 100 students.

The phone company A Fee and Fee has a monthly cellular plan where a customer pays a flat monthly fee and then a certain amount o
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

y=0.2x+29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

y is the total monthly of the A Fee and Fee plan.

x is the number of monthly minutes used.

  • If a customer uses 290 minutes, the monthly cost will be $87, we have the pair (290, 87)
  • If the customer uses 980 minutes, the monthly cost will be $225, this is the coordinate pair (980, 225).

We want to obtain an equation in the form: y=mx+b

First, let us determine the slope, m

Given points (290, 87) and (980, 225):

<u>Slope</u>

m=\dfrac{225-87}{980-290} =\dfrac{138}{690}=0.2

Next, we determine the y-intercept, b.

Substituting the pair (290, 87) and m=0.2 in y=mx+b, we obtain

87=0.2(290)+b

b=87-0.2(290)=29

Therefore, our equation in the form y=mx+b is:

y=0.2x+29
