Answer:

y = 3x² - 6x - 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the roots are x = - 4 and x = 6 then the factors are

(x + 4) and (x - 6) and the quadratic function is

y = a(x + 4)(x - 6) ← a is a multiplier, in this case 3, so

y = 3(x + 4)(x - 6) ← expand factors and distribute by 3

y = 3(x² - 2x - 24)

y = 3x² - 6x - 72

3x²-6x-72. The quadratic equation whose  roots are -4 and 6 with a leading coefficient of 3 is 3x²-6x-72.

The solutions of a quadratic equation are x = -4 and x = 6 with a leading coefficient of 3. The solutions are two real numbers which means that (x + 4) and (x - 6) are the factors of our unknown quadratic equation and the leading coefficient is 3.

3(x+4)(x-6)=0

Expand (x+4)(x-6):

3(x^{2} -2x-24)=0\\3x^{2} -6x-72=0 which is our quadratic equation.

Answer:

There are multiple possibilities. One is there are 12 boys, and 16 girls. 12+16= 28 which is between 20 and 30. That would be 12:16, which can be simplified to 3:4. There is also 9 boys, and 12 girls. that would be 9:12, which can be simplified to 3:4. Also, 9 + 12 = 21, which is between 20 and 30.
