There are 6 children total, 4 of which are girls. The ratio is 2:1 girls:boys, so there will need to be twice as many pinks as there are blues. If we get 12 pinks, then there will be 6 blues. That's the biggest since that's all the pinks the florist has.
Answer:
x=1/2, y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Double both sides of the top equation:
4x+6y=26
Now subtract boths sides of the second one from the first one:
(4x+6y) - (4x-y) = 26 - (-2)
7y = 28
so y = 4
4x-y=-2 so 4x-4=-2
4x=2
x=1/2
1)He should measure the perimeter.
9+5+9+5=28 inches
2) she should measure the circumference
3) He should measure the Area
8×14=112 Square feet
Five less than twice what negative number squared is 157 <- put into an expression
-5 + 2(-x^2) = 157
Now simplify:
-5 + -2x^2 = 157
-2x^2 = 162
-2x^2 - 162 = 0
2x^2 + 162 = 0
x^2 + 81 = 0
