I am pretty sure the answer is 15 boys at the beginning of the assembly.
That would mean that there were 28 girls there, and if 40% of them left, which would mean that 8 left, leaving 20 girls. This would leave the assembly with a 3:4 ratio of boys to girls.
The histogram representing the data is attcwhwd in the picture below.
Answer:
C On exactly 25% of these days, Shane drank 3 to 4 glasses of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of 8 - ounce glasses is represented on the x - axis and the number of days on the y - axis.
From the histogram ;
Shane drank 1 - 2 glasses on exactly 1 day
Shane drank 3 - 4 glasses on exactly 3 days
Shane drank 5 - 6 glasses on exactly 6 day
Total number of days = 12
60% of 12 = 7.2
On exactly 60% of the days, which is 7.2 days, number of glasses drunk isn't covered by the histogram
25% of 12 ; 0.25 * 12 = 3 days
From the histogram, number of glasses consumed is 3 - 4 glasses ; which is the only true statement about the histogram in the options given.
<em><u>Simplified </u></em><em><u>Recap:</u></em>
PQR and XYR are similar.
PQ: 4 inches (shortest side)
PR: 9 inches
QR: 12 inches (longest side)
<em><u>Solving:</u></em>
Because they are similar triangles, we know that the sides of one triangle are proportional to the ones on the other. Therefore, the smallest side of PQR is proportional to the smallest side of XYZ. Now, we just need to figure out the constant of proportionality , and we can do that by dividing the smallest side of XYZ triangle by the smallest side of PQR.

Now we know that the constant of proportionality is 4. All we have to do now is solve the problem. The question is asking what the longest side of XYZ is, and to find that we just need to multiply the longest side of PQR by our constant of proportionality.

Therefore, our answer is 48.
The point-slope form is:

So, here, you just plug in values:

It would be + 1 because remember, the '-' sign just means the opposite of, not subtraction in this case. Also, m = slope.
