Answer:
The ratio of girls is 24.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the total amount of swimmers is 40, you can divide it by 8 to get 5 multiples. If three of those 5's belong to the ratio of girls, the equation is 3 x 8. The answer is 24.
Answer:
p=2
Step-by-step explanation:
-7p = -3p - 8
Add 3p to each side
-7p+3p = -3p+3p - 8
-4p = -8
Divide each side by -4
-4p/-4 = -8/-4
p = 2

__________________________________________________________
Multiply each side by −8, subtract 35 from each side.
___________________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________
Given: You have (-1/8)*(x + 35) = -7
________________________________________
Note that all the answer choices given start with: "Multiply each side by....";
</span>____________________
Given the choices, multiplying EACH SIDE of the equation by "(-8)" would make sense, since doing would cancel the "(-1/8)" on the "right-hand side" of the equation above to a "1" (i.e "cancel out" that ("-1/8") value); and would result in making the "right side" of the equation above ("-7") a positive integer number.
Then you would be left with: x + 35 = 56 ; so the next step would be to:
__________
Subtract: "(35)" from each side of the question [hence the answer choice] to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x".
