Answer: there are 5 more girls than boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys to girls in a classroom is 5:6. The total ratio is the sum of the proportion. It becomes 5 + 6 = 11

If there are 55 students in total, it means that the number of boys in the class is

5/11 × 55 = 25 boys

Also, the number of girls in the class is

6/11 × 55 = 30 girls

Therefore, the difference between the number of girls and boys in the class is

30 - 25 = 5 girls

Leni [432]

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

ln x +ln(x+1)=ln 56

ln x(x+1)=ln 56

so x(x+1)=56

x^2+x-56=0

(x+8)(x-7)=0

x= -8 or x=7

and lnx,x>0

HURRY LIMITED TIME
lakkis [162]
If g is the gallons of gas, and the truck holds up to 20 gallons, then g can be anything from 0 to 20.

If there is zero gallons of gas (g = 0) then the truck will travel zero miles because M(0) = 17(0) = 0.

The max miles depends on the max gallons of gas, so the miles possible with 20 gallons is M(20) = 17(20) = 340.

So, g ranges from 0 to 20 and M(g) ranges from 0 to 340.
Therefore your answer is the last option.
