Answer:

We have 8 more boys than girls on the swim team.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys to girls on a swim team is represented as:

4 : 2

Total number of athletes is given as 24

Total ratio is given as:

4 + 2 = 6

Step 1

We find the number of boys and girls

Number of boys = 4/6 × 24 = 16 boys.

Number of girls = 2/6 × 24 = 8 girls.

Therefore, since we have 16 boys and 8 girls on the swim team, we have 8 more boys than girls on the swim team.

Tju [1.3M]

Recall that for a home visit, the technician charges $50 regardless on the time spent in the repair.

So, to find out the rate, we should calculate the part that depends on the spent time, and the add 50. So for example, we know that the technician spents 1 hour. So, we multiply 1 times 25 and then add 50. So, 25*1 + 50 = 75, which is the rate for a 1-hour repair.

So, in general, if we know that the number of hours is x, we multiply x times 25 and then add 50. Then a table would like this:

x 25*x 25*x +50

1 25 75

2 50 100

3 75 125

4 100 150

Note that as the time increases by one hour, the fare increases by 25. This is an example of a direct variation, since as the independent variable increases (t
