Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number on the trip is 24

Let the number of girls be x

Then the boys are x + 8

So... x + x + 8 = 24

2x + 8 = 24.......... This is the equation

2x = 24 - 8

2x = 16

x = 16/2

x = 8

Number of girls = 8

And number of boys = x + 8

Which is = 8+8 = 16

Why can't you compare 5 minutes in 240 seconds without making some kind of change
grin007 [14]
You have to have the same unit of measure. Here your units are "minutes" and "seconds". In order to compare the two, you must change to 240 seconds into minutes (dividing by 60 = 4 mins) OR change the 5 minutes into seconds (multiply by 60 to give you 300 seconds)

Can someone help me with this Geometry question ASAP, thanks!
slega [8]

We are given an isosceles triangle.

An isosceles triangle has corresponding angles of corresponding sides same.

<em>Therefore, other angle is also of (3x+7) degrees.</em>

(5x+13) and (3x+7) makes a linear pair.

Therefore,

(5x+13) + (3x+7)  = 180

5x +13 + 3x +7 = 180.

8x +20 = 180.

Subtracting 20 from both sides, we get

8x +20-20 = 180-20.

8x = 160

Dividing both sides by 8, we get

<h3>x = 20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 3rd option. </h3>
