Let b=# of boys
Let g=# of girls
B+g=40
G=2b-5
Sub g into first equation and solve for b
B+2b-5=40
3b-5=40
3b=40+5
3b=45
B=45/3
B=15
Sub B into the second equation
G=2b-5
G=2(15)-5
G=30-5
G=25
Hope this helps!

Help! I need to know how to solve this

Every triangle measures 180 degrees.
In order to get the answer you need to add every equation and set it equal to 180.

2x+4+2x-9+x=180
Combine like terms.
5x-5=180
Add 5 to the other side.
5x=185
Divide by 5.
x = 37

Now, plug 37 in for every x.
Angle A: 2(37)-9
Angle B: 2(37)+4
Angle C: 37

The measures are:
Angle A = 65
Angle B = 78
Angle C = 37

Hope this helps!

We add all these mixed numbers together:

1 1/2 + 2 3/4 + 2 1/3

It will be easier to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions:

3/2 + 11/4 + 7/3

Now we have to find the common denominator which is 12:

18/12 + 33/12 + 28/12 = 79/12 = 6 7/12

The answer is 6 7/12 hours.
