You simplify it by solving it which means it's 4x4 which equals 16 so the answer is 16
Answer:
boys = 250
girls = 150
Step-by-step explanation:
5g = 3b eq. 1
g + b = 400 eq. 2
g = girls
b = boys
From the eq. 2
g = 400 - b
Replacing this last eq. on eq. 1:
5(400-b) = 3b
5*400 + 5*-b = 3b
2000 - 5b = 3b
2000 = 3b + 5b
2000 = 8b
2000/8 = b
250 = b
From eq. 2
g + 250 = 400
g = 400 - 250
g = 150
Check:
from eq. 1
5*150 = 3*250 = 750
Answer:
Its an Arithmetic progression
Step-by-step explanation:
d1= -18-(-25)= 7
d2= -11-(-18)= 7
d1 = d2
r1 = -18/25=0.72
r2 = -11/-8= 0.611
r1 isnt = r2
You have to expand the expression so that it becomes
3m+3n
