6 0

Ratio:

3 boys / 5 girls

total = 8 people

5 girls / 8 people

Proportion:

5 girls / 8 people = x girls / 40 people

8x = 200

x = 25 girls

40 - 25 = 15 boys

25 - 15 = 10 more girls than boys

There are 10 more girls than boys in the class.

Hope this helps!! :)

Sav [38]

True, Europeans were capable to enslave the people they destroyed. The slave trade had cut many African kingdoms. Europeans demanded that Africans practice slavery.

<h3>What things did European traders trade for African slaves?</h3>

In African ports, European merchants exchanged metals, cloth, beads, guns, and shell for captive Africans brought to the coast from the African interior, especially by African traders. Many captives died just during the long overland trips from the interior to the coast.

<h3>What gave elevation to the slave trade?</h3>

The lack of a qualified labor force in the Americas and the decline of the West African population caused citizens to seek a living elsewhere. The shipment of gold from the Americas to Europe caused farmstead owners to seek affordable laborers.

What were the leader ship styles of john smith and thomas dale
MArishka [77]

John Smith and Thomas Dale had similar leadership styles because they both made strict rules. Both leaders could be considered tyrants. They both had a no nonsense approach, which made them good leaders for the Jamestown situation because the colony's survival was at stake. These are not necessarily qualities we look for today, because their styles were not democratic. -ally :)

City and county courts have limited jurisdiction on municipal issues. Whose case would a city or county court be most likely to
kvv77 [185]

The correct answer is<em> a local person accused of murder</em> .

In the case of the city or country court, they would hear the case of a local person who is being accused of murder. It has more relevance than a resident fighting a ticket for parking on a city street. The city or country court do not have jurisdiction in the case of a state senator accusation of illegal gambling. So, the person accused of murder is the most important one for the court.

The professor's suggestion belongs to the field of <u>"evolutionary psychology".</u>



Evolutionary psychology is a hypothetical way to deal with psychology that endeavors to clarify valuable mental and mental qualities, for example, memory, recognition, or dialect—as adjustments, i.e., as the practical results of regular determination.  

The motivation behind this methodology is to bring the utilitarian state of mind about organic instruments, for example, the insusceptible framework into the field of brain research, and to approach mental components correspondingly.
