|PR| = |PQ| + |QR|; |PQ| = |QR| conclusion |PR| = 2|PQ|

|PQ| = 3y; |PR| = 42; |QR|=?

subtitute

42 = 2(3y)
6y = 42    |divide both sides by 6
y = 7

the ratio of girls to boys in the sixth grade is 5:3. If there are 400 sixth graders, how many boys are there?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

boys = 250

girls = 150

Step-by-step explanation:

5g = 3b       eq. 1

g + b = 400       eq. 2

g = girls

b = boys

From the eq. 2

g = 400 - b

Replacing this last eq. on eq. 1:

5(400-b) = 3b

5*400 + 5*-b = 3b

2000 - 5b = 3b

2000 = 3b + 5b

2000 = 8b

2000/8 = b

250 = b

From eq. 2

g + 250 = 400

g = 400 - 250

g = 150

Check:

from eq. 1

5*150 = 3*250  = 750

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

  $12,958

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of the account, principal plus interest, is given by ...

  A = P(1 +rt)

The given information tells us ...

  12,122 = P(1 + .08×2) = 1.16P

Then the principal amount is ...

  12,122/1.16 = 10,450

__

When that same amount is invested using a different rate and time period, it becomes ...

  A = 10,450(1 + .09×(2 2/3)) = 10,450×1.24 = 12,958

It will amount to $12,958 in 2 years 8 months at 9%.
