I'm assuming there is probably a graph that goes with this problem so here is all the info I can give you with the four choices:
If it is -1/3, the line will go DOWN 1, over 3 (just count on the graph)
If it is 3, the line will go UP 3, over 1
If it is 1/3, the line will go UP 1, over 3
And if it it -3, it will go DOWN 3, over 1
(If the slope is 3 or -3, it would be quite steep compared to a slope of 1/3 or -1/3)
Hope that helps!
Answer: k ≤ -4 or k ≥
<u>Explanation:</u>
| 3k + 4 | ≥ 8
3k + 4 ≥ 8 or 3k + 4 ≤ -8
<u> -4</u> <u> -4 </u> <u> -4</u> <u>-4 </u>
3k ≥ 4 or 3k ≤ -12
<u>÷3 </u> <u>÷3 </u> <u> ÷3 </u> <u>÷3 </u>
k ≥
or k ≤ -4
Answer:
The answer to your question is x = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation

- Multiply both sides by 7

- Simplify
2x = 42
- Divide both sides by 2

- Simplify
x = 21
You don't define the ratio, so there are two answers:
If 2/3 is boys to girls, then,
2/3 = 24/x
x = 36 girls
If 2/3 is girls to boys, then,
2/3 = x/24
x = 16 girls
