Answer:

26 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

boys : girls = 2 : 1

If girls = x, than boys = 2x.

Altogether girls and boys = (x+2x) = 3x

Altogether girls and boys = 39

3x = 39

x = 39/3 = 13 (girls)

2x = (2*13) = 26 (boys)

188 to 42 what is the percent change
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so we are gonna have a percent decrease because it went from 188 to 42

decrease = (original number - new number) / (original number ) * 100

                = (188 - 42) / (188) * 100

                = (146 / 188) * 100

                = 0.7766 * 100

                = 77.66% decrease....not sure if u need ur answer rounded to the nearest percent or not....if so, its a 78% decrease

Which equation represents a linear function?
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

y-2=-5(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equations given are:

y-2=-5(x - 2)\\X+ 7 = -4(X + 8)\\y - 3 = y(x + 4)\\y + 9 = x(x - 1)

Now, a linear function is of the form:

y=mx+b

Where, 'm' and 'b' are real numbers and m\ne0

Equation 1: y-2=-5(x - 2)

Simplifying using distributive property, we get:

y-2=-5x+10\\y=-5x+10+2\\y=-5x+12

The above equation is of the form y=mx+b. So, it represents a linear function.

Equation 2: X+ 7 = -4(X + 8)

Here, both sides of the equation has same variable 'X'. So, it will form an equation of 1 variable. So, it's not a linear function.

Equation 3: y - 3 = y(x + 4)

Simplifying the above equation. This gives,

y-3=yx+4y\\y-4y-yx=3\\y(1-4-x)=3\\y(-3-x)=3\\y=\frac{3}{(-3-x)}

This is not of the form of the linear function. So, it is also not a linear function.

Equation 4: y + 9 = x(x - 1)

Simplifying the above equation. This gives,

y+9=x^2-x\\y=x^2-x-9

This is not of the form of the linear function. So, it is also not a linear function.
