If x=girls,
then we have 3x boys.

We know that all children are boys+girls, so x+3x, which is 4x and 4x is 48, so one x is 12.

So there are 12 girls and 36 boys.

There are x girls in the group.
There are three times as many boys as girls, so the number of boys is 3x.
There are 48 children in the group.

x+3x=48 \\
4x=48 \\
x=\frac{48}{4} \\
x=12

There are 12 girls in the group.

What is the length of the line segment with endpoints (11, −4) and (−12, −4
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

23 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula: d = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2}

Plug in the 2 points:

d = \sqrt{(-12 - 11)^2 + (-4 + 4)^2}

d = \sqrt{529}

d = 23

So, the distance is 23 units

Find the equation for the plane through the points Po(3,-2,5), Qo(-3,-1,-5) and Ro(0,-4,4). The equation of the plane is:_______
ratelena [41]

Answer:

21x-24y-15z=36

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a plane is given a s

ax+by+cz=d

where a,b,c and d are  gotten from the vector product of the vector define by subtracting  one of the given points from the other two

Hence we define the vectors as follow  

<3,-2,5> - <-3,-1,-5> = <6,-1,10>

also <0,-4,4> - <-3,-1,-5>=<3,-3,9>

Next we need to carry out the cross product of the newly formed vector

<6,-1,10> X <3,-3,9> =<21,-24,-15>

The newly formed vector is in orthogonal to both vector and in  direction to the normal vector to the plane.

Since ax+by+cz=d  is the normal vector, we can conclude that

a=21, b=-24 c=-15

Hence we have

21x-24y-15z=d

if we plug in the point <-3,-1,-5> to solve for "d" we arrive at

21(-3)-24(-1)-15(-5)=36

Hence the final equation is

21x-24y-15z=36
