Let g = original # of girls at the assembly.
Let w = # of boys at the assembly.

Equation of ratios:

w                 3         boys
-------    =    ---- = --------------------------------------------
g-12             4      girls after 12 have left assembly
                                                                                     4w + 36
Cross-mult., 4w = 3g - 36, so 4w + 36 = 3g, and g = ---------------  (answer)
                                                                                           4

This is "original # of girls at the assembly in terms of w, the # of boys at the assembly."

Why is the product of 9s diagonal?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

A. With each 9s fact you add another 9, which means you go straight down a row and back one space. This creates a diagonal pattern in the grid.

Please help, brainliest for correct answer
slava [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is m∠2 = 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a triangle rule that states the outer angle of an angle in a triangle is equal to the sum of the remaining two angles in that triangle, which means that m∠2 = 52° + 68° = 120°. This can be proven correct because the sum of two of the angles in the triangle is 120°, which means the final angle is 60°. Since m∠2 is the outer angle of 60°, that means it will be 180° - 60° or 120°.
