Hello!</h2>
The answer is:

<h2>
Why?</h2>
To solve the problem we need to add/subtract like terms. We need to remember that like terms are the terms that share the same variable and the same exponent.
For example, we have:

We have that we were able to add just the terms that were sharing the same variable and exponenr (x for this case).
So, we are given the expression:

Hence, the answer is:

Have a nice day!

X=number of boys
y=number of girls.
We can suggest the following system of equations:
x+y=33
x/y=3/8
We solve this system of equations by substitution method.
x/y=3/8 ⇒x=3y/8
(3y/8)+y=33
least common multiple=8
3y+8y=33*8
11y=33*8
y=(33*8)/11
y=3*8
y=24
x+y=33
x+24=33
x=33-24
x=9
number of boys /total number of students=9/33=3/11
There are 9 boys and 24 girls in the class.
Answer: C: 9. since 3/11 of the students are boys.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=-x²+8x
By replacing x with -7, we get
f(-7)=-(-7)²+8×(-7)
=-49-56
=-105
