If 60% are girls, the ratio girls to boys is

... girls : boys = 60% : 40% = 3 : 2

This means the number of girls is 3/2 times the number of boys:

... (3/2)*30 = 45

There are 45 girls in Jonathan's class.

For the equation y - x < 0,
y < x
The shaded portion will be under the dashed line joining points (-2, -2) and (3, 3).

for the equation x - 1 > 0,
x > 1
The shaded portion will be to the right of the dashed line joining points (1, 5) and (1, -3).

The portion affected by the two shadings will be the portion common to the right of the dashed line joining points (1, 5) and (1, -3) and under the dashed line joining points (-2, -2) and (3, 3).
Therefore the correct answer is option c.

Find the value of r so the line that passes through each pair of points has the given slope.

Answer:

r = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = change in y / change in x, so:

change in y / change in x = 2/3

5 - r / 7 - 1 = 2/3

5 - r / 6 = 2/3
