Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
when solving and equation with a variable, you must work backwards and do the opposite of the equation
sooo… you must subtract 4 (opposite of +4 is -4)
x=12
Subtract 3 from both sides
simplify 12 - 3 to 9
break down the problem into these two equations
1 + p = 9 and -(1 + p) = 9
solve the first equation 1 + p = 9 and that would be 8 since 1 + 8 = 9 is true.
solve the second equation -(1 + p) = 9 and just simplify brackets and add 1 to both sides then add 9 + 1 and lastly multiply both sides by -1 and p = -10.
Gather both solutions
Answers: p = -10, 8
12 girls out of 30 were selected, so the ratio "selected:tried" if 12/30. This fraction can be simplified into
Similarly, 16 boys out of 40 were selected, so the ratio "selected:tried" if 16/40. This fraction can be simplified into
So yes, the ratio of the number of students on the team to the number of students trying out the same for both boys and girls
Convert 124 7/8 to 999/8
In 25 minutes, 999/8 is drained -> every minute, 999/200 is drained (4.995)
