Percentage of students that are girls in the class = 60%
Number of girls in the class = 18
Let us assume the total number of students in the class = x
Then
60% * x = 18
(60/100) * x = 18
6x/10 = 18
6x = 18 * 10
6x = 180
x = 180/6
   = 30
So the total number of students in the class is 30.
Number of boys in the class = 30 - 18
                                               = 12
So there are 12 boys in the class. I hope the procedure is simple enough for you to understand.

60% are girls, there are 18 girls in the class. How many boys?

This is quite easy to understand. 

6x/10 = 18
6x/10 *10 = 18*10 
6x = 180
x = 30

Now, thats the total, subtract by the girls. 
30-18 = 12

Answer: 12

Use the table to write a quadratic function in vertex form. Then rewrite the function in standard form.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph decreases at first, then changes direction at (2, 5).

y = a(x-2)^2 + 5

Plug in (1,11) and solve for a:

11 = a(1-2)^2 + 5

a = 6

Equation in vertex form:

y = 6(x-2)^2 + 5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Discussion
What you have presented is called a cyclic quadrilateral. A cyclic quadrilateral is a 4 sided figure whose angles (4 of them) all touch the circumference of a circle.

Here's what you want to know. Two angles that are opposite each other are supplementary (they add to 180 degrees)

Equation
x + 80 = 180 Subtract 80 from both sides.

Solution
x + 80 - 80 = 180 - 80 Combine
x = 100

Answer
x = 100
