Answer:

20boys and 15girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let no of boys be 4x

no of girls be 3x

4x+3x=35

7x=35

x=35/7

x=5

no of boys=4×5=20

no of girls=3×5=15

20+15=35 students

Answer: Boy = 20 and Girl = 15

Explanation:

Boy = 35 x 4/7 = 20

Girl = 35 x 3/7 = 15

A skirt originally cost $10. How much will it cost if you sell it in Amazon with 25% mark-up price

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

$20.40

Step-by-step explanation:

20% off means that the new price of the skirt will be 80% of the original price:

$30(100% – 20%) = $30(80%)

Converting the percent to a decimal gives:

$30(0.8) = $24.00

There is an additional 15% off the sale price of $24.00, so the final price is 85% of the sale price:

$24(100% – 15%) = $24(85%)

Again converting the percent to a decimal gives:

$24(0.85) = $20.40

Line FG goes through the points (4,9) and (1,3). Which equation represents a line that is perpendicular to FG and passes through

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

$x + 2y= 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points:

$F = (4,9)$

$G = (1,3)$

Required

Determine the equation of line that is perpendicular to the given points and that pass through $(2,0)$

First, we need to determine the slope, m of FG

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Where

$F = (4,9)$ --- $(x_1,y_1)$

$G = (1,3)$ --- $(x_2,y_2)$

$m = \frac{3 - 9}{1 - 4}$

$m = \frac{- 6}{- 3}$

$m =2$

The question says the line is perpendicular to FG.

Next, we determine the slope (m2) of the perpendicular line using:

$m_2 = -\frac{1}{m}$

$m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

The equation of the line is then calculated as:

$y - y_1 = m_2(x - x_1)$

Where

$m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

$(x_1,y_1) = (2,0)$

$y - 0 = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 2)$

$y = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 2)$

$y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 1$

Multiply through by 2

$2y = -x + 2$

Add x to both sides

$x + 2y= -x +x+ 2$

$x + 2y= 2$

Hence, the line of the equation is $x + 2y= 2$
