6 because 4/7 boys means a ratio of 4:3, so twice 4 to make 8 means twice 3 to make 6.

There are 4/7 boys, so there are 3/7 girls.

Let the total number of children be x.

4/7x = 8
1/7x = 8 ÷ 4
1/7x = 2
3/7x = 2 x 3
3/7x = 6

There are 6 girls.

X -8 greater than equal to 3x -12 is .... please HELP
Ann [662]
X - 8 > 3x - 12

if solve for x then

Add 8 to both sides:
x - 8 + 8 >3x -12 +8
Simplify:
x  > 3x -4
Now Subtract 3x to both sides
x - 3x > 3x - 4 - 3x
Simplify:
-2x > -4
Divided both sides by (-2)
-2x/-2 > -4/-2
Simplify
x > 2

They need to raise $1,680 for travel expenses. Each chocolate bar is being sold for $2, and each box contains 30 chocolate bars.
leonid [27]

Answer:

Each scholar have to sell 4 boxes in order to raise enough money to cover the team's travel expenses

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes number of boxes to be sold by each scholar to raise enough money to cover the team's travel expenses.

Number of scholars = 7

Total number of boxes =7x

Total number of chocolate bars =(7x)(30)=210x

Price of 1 chocolate bar = $2

Price of 210x chocolate bars =210x(2)=\$420x

Also,

Total amount to be raised for travel expenses = $1680

So,

1680=420x\\x=\frac{1680}{420}\\ x=4

Therefore,

each scholar have to sell 4 boxes in order to raise enough money to cover the team's travel expenses
