Answer: 150 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of boys be x
Since there were 200 more girls than boys, the number of girls will be: = x + 200
Since the ratio of boys to girls was 3:7, this can be solved further below:
3/7 = x/x+200
Cross multiply
(7 × x) = 3(x + 200)
7x = 3x + 600
7x - 3x = 600
4x = 600
x = 600/4
x = 150
The number of boys enrolled is 150
Number of Girls will be:
= X + 200
= 150 + 200
= 350
Check: Number of boys / Number of girls
= 150/350
= 3/7
= 3:7
Answer:y=4x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x+y=2
−4x+y+4x=2+4x
y=4x+2
y=4x+2
Answer:
Let the speed of the train be x km/h.
Case 1:
Distance = 288 km
Speed = x km/h
Time = Distance/Speed
= 288/x h
Case 2:
Distance = 288 km
Speed = (x+4) km/h
Time = 288/x + 4 h
Since 288/x > 288/x + 4
288/x - 288/x+4 = 1
288[1/x - 1/x+4 ] = 1
[ x + 4 - x / x(x + 4) ] = 1/288
[4 / x^2 + 4x ] = 1/288
x^2 + 4x = 1152
x^2 + 4x - 1152 = 0
x^2 + 36x - 32x - 1152 = 0
x(x + 36) - 32(x + 36) = 0
(x + 36)(x - 32) = 0
x + 36 = 0 , x - 32 = 0
x = -36 , x = 32
x = -36 , rejected since speed cannot be negative.
Therefore , speed of the train = 32 km/h
