Answer: There are 10 boys and 7 girls in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of boys and y be the number of girls then according to the question we have the following equations :-

x+y=17...............................(1)\\\\7x+11y=147...........................(2)

The value of y from (1) will be

y=17-x , substitute this in equation (2), we get

7x+11(17-x)=147\\\\\Rightarrow\ 7x+187x-11x=147\\\\\Rightarrow\ 187-4x=147\\\\\Rightarrow\ -4x=147-187\\\\\Rightarrow\ -4x=-40\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=10

∴ y=17-10=7

Hence, there are 10 boys and 7 girls in the class.

Answer:

The balance after the payment is $1263.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for amount after compound interest is

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{t}

Where, P is principal, r is rate of interest, n is number of time interest compounded in a period, number of periods.

According to the given information,

P=1455.69

r=0.128

n=365

t=45

Put these values in the above formula,

A=1455.69(1+\frac{0.128}{365})^{45}

A\approx 1478.84

The amount after compound interest is $1478.84. Add late fee chages $35 in this amount and subtract the payment of $250. So, the balance amount after payment is

Balance=1478.84+35-250=1263.84

Therefore the balance after the payment is $1263.84.
