Answer:
12 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question:
Number of boys = 3
Number of girls = 2
Boys: Girls
3:2
Let :
a = boys
b = girls
Hence, a : b = 3 : 2
a/b = 3/2
Cross Multiply
2a = 3b .......... Equation 1
a = 3b/2
If four more girls join the class, there will be the same number of boys and girls
Hence,
a: b + 4 = 3 : 3
a/b + 4 = 3/3
Cross Multiply
3a = 3(b + 4)
3a = 3b + 12 ........ Equation (2)
From Equation 1: a = 3b/2
Substitute 3b/2 for a in Equation 2 we have:
3a = 3b + 12 .........Equation 2
3(3b/2) = 3b + 12
9b/2 = 3b + 12
Cross Multiply
9b = 2(3b + 12)
9b= 6b + 24
9b - 6b = 24
3b = 24
b = 8
Substitute 8 for b in Equation 1
a = 3b/2
a = 3 × 8/2
a = 24/2
a = 12
Therefore, the number of boys in the class is 12

I may be wrong, but I tried :P
38.94 rounded to the nearest tenth. To know if we should round up or down, we look to the number in the hundredths place. If that number is 5 or greater, we round up. If the number is 4 or less, we round down
38.94
The number is 4, so we round down. 38.94 becomes 38.9
65.45 rounded to the nearest tenth. To know if we should round up or down, we look to the number in the hundredths place. If that number is 5 or greater, we round up. If the number is 4 or less, we round down.
65.43
The number is 3, so we round down. 65.43 becomes 65.4
38.9+65.4= 104.3
If you were to estimate 38.94+65.43, we round the number to numbers that we can easily calculate in our head. 38.94+65.43 becomes 40+65
40+65=105
You need to know where the line crosses the y axis (vertical) - AKA the y intercept, and the slope of the line.
The y intercept is 5. The slope is -1/3 because every time the line goes down one square, it also goes right three squares.
Equation:
y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 1/3x + 5
Another way to write the same thing
y = x/3 + 5
Both correct!
