Answer:
7 are boys
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a system of equations where g is for girls and b is for boys.
b+g=26
g=3b-2
Substitute "3b-2" in for "g" in the first equation.
b+(3b-2)=26
Rewrite without the parentheses because it's addition and not multiplication.
b+3b-2=26
Combine like terms.
4b-2=26
Add 2 to both sides.
4b=28
Divide by the coefficient of the variable to get it alone.
b=7
Answer: Attached.
Step-by-step explanation:
Either solve the equations directly, or graph them and look for the point of intersection.
The answer is 18.
Just replace the x with 2
Answer:
38 times
Step-by-step explanation:
A coin has two sides, so there is a 50% chance it will land on either side (assuming perfect conditions and that the coin cannot land vertically). With that in mind, if you flip a coin 76 times, 50% or 1/2 of the times the coin should land on tails. That is 36 times. (Once again, this is under perfect testing conditions. In real life, you probably wouldn't get an even split after only 76 flips.)
Hope this helps :)
