Answer:

675

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ratio be 'R'

Total number of students = 1050

Then,

9R + 5R = 1050

R = 1050

=> R = 75

Hence, the number of boys = 9R = 9 x 75 = 675

7+ 2x divided by 5= 13

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

$x=29$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation :

$\frac{(7+2x)}{5} =13$

Making the terms of 'x' to one side and constants to the other.

$(7+2x)=13*5$

$7+2x=65$

$2x=65-7$

$2x=58$

$x=\frac{58}{2}$

$x=29$

So, the value of 'x' is 29.
