There are 1,500 students in a school. 65% of them are girls. How many girls are there in the school?

1 answer:

3 0

First you have to multiply 1,500 by 65%. A way to do that is 1,500 x 65 and then divide by 100.
So 1,500 x 65 is 97,500.
97,500 divided by 100 is 975.
The final answer is that there are 975 girls in the school.

Solve the simultaneous equations using an algebraic method:<br><br> 2x+5y=0 <br> 3x-4y=23

slamgirl [31]

Answer: The required solution is (x, y) = (5, -2).

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following system of equations :

$2x+5y=0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\3x-4y=23~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)$

From equation (i), we have

$2x+5y=0\\\\\Rightarrow 2x=-5y\\\\\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{5}{2}y~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iii)$

Substituting the value of x from equation (iii) in equation (ii), we get

$3\times\left(-\dfrac{5}{2}y\right)-4y=23\\\\\\\Rightarrow -15y-8y=46\\\\\Rightarrow -23y=46\\\\\Rightarrow y=-\dfrac{46}{23}\\\\\Rightarrow y=-2.$

From equation (iii), we get

$x=-\dfrac{5}{2}\times(-2)=5.$

Thus, the required solution is (x, y) = (5, -2).
