Answer:
7 are boys
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a system of equations where g is for girls and b is for boys.
b+g=26
g=3b-2
Substitute "3b-2" in for "g" in the first equation.
b+(3b-2)=26
Rewrite without the parentheses because it's addition and not multiplication.
b+3b-2=26
Combine like terms.
4b-2=26
Add 2 to both sides.
4b=28
Divide by the coefficient of the variable to get it alone.
b=7
7.5% of 160.
12 / 160 = 0.075
Move decimal 2 places to the left to convert it to a percent, or multiple by 100.
0.075 * 100 = 7.5
7.5% is your answer.
