3x+4x=28

7x=28

x=28/7

x=4

now, num of girls=3x=3×4=12

& num of boys=4x=4×4=16

Answer: 12 girls

Step-by-step explanation: You first want to make this equation become a fraction with the number of girls on top and the total on bottom. This becomes 3/7. To make this over 28, multiply by 4 on the top and the bottom. This makes 12/28, making 12 girls the answer.

Sean read 15 of a book in = 112 hours,
so, 1 of a book in = 112/15

Now, 12 of a book would be: 112/15 * 12 = 112/5 * 4 = 89.6

89.6 = 89 6/10 = 89 3/5

In short, Your Answer would be 89 3/5 hours

What is the factorization of the following trinomial? 15x2 - 44x - 36

BartSMP [9]

$15x^2-44x-36$

$=(15x^2+10x)+(-54x-36)$

factor out 5x from $15x^2+10x = 5x(3x+2)$

Factor out -18 from $-54x-36 = -18(3x+2)$

$=5x(3x+2)-18(3x+2)$

Factor out common term $(3x+2)$

$= (3x+2)(5x-18)$

hope this helps!
