Set up the equation by writing the number of students in the ratio as a fraction:
3/4= (245-x)/x Cross multiply:
3x= 4(245-x) Multiply on right:
3x= 980-4x Add 4x on both sides:
7x= 980 Divide both sides by 7:
x= 140 this is how many girls there are. And:
245-140= 105= boys
Step-by-step explanation:
explain what 7 c is please and I'll write the answer in the comments:))
Answer:
x can have two complex solutions, which are:
-2 + i
-2 - i
Step-by-step explanation:
2x² + 8x + 10 = 0
4x² + 16x + 20 = 0
4x² + 16x + 16 = -4
(2x + 4)² = -4
2x + 4 = √-4
2x = -4 ± i√4
2x = -4 ± 2i
x = -2 ± i
So x is equal to -2 + i and -2 - i.
