Ratio is 5girls:7boys with total 72 students
5+7= 12
72➗12= 6
6(5:7)= 30 girls : 42 boys
New ratio is 3:4 with 48 boys
48➗4= 12
So for girls 3x12= 36
So started with 30 girls ended with 36 girls... 6 girls joined band during the school year.
I would use the quadratic formula for this:
x = -b ± √b² - 4ac over 2a
x = 8 ± √64 - 4(1)(0) over 2(1)
x = 8 ± √64 over 2
x = 8 <span>± 8 over 2 [simplify]
x = 4 </span><span>± 4
x1 = 4 + 4 x2 = 4 - 4
x1 = 8 x2 = 0
Thus, the solutions for x would be 0 and 8.</span>
5x + 2 -x = -4x
4x +2 = -4x
2 = -4x -4x
2 = -8x
x = - 1/4
hope this helps
