Janelle practices every afternoon
Answer: A and E
Step-by-step explanation: since the question says boys to girls and not girls to boys we assume the first number in the ratio is boys. This makes A correct 3 boys for every 2 girls. And 3+2 is 5 so for every 5 students there are 2 girls because you add the 3 boys
Answer: 14, 48, 50
Step-by-step explanation:
14^2+48^2=50^2
Please: Use "^" to denote exponentiation: <span>2x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0
Reduce this by div. every term by 2: </span><span>x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0
Here a=1, b=4 and c = -6. Square half of b, obtaining (4/2)^2 = 4, and add, and then subtract, this 4 to x^2 + 4x - 6:
</span> x^2 + 4x +4 - 4 - 6 = 0. Rewrite the square as (x+2)^2, obtaining new equation
(x+2)^2 = 10. Take the sqrt of both sides: x+2 = plus or minus sqrt(10).
Finally, solve for x: x = -2 plus or minus sqrt(10).
<span>The correct answer is D. The number 7 is subtracted from the first term, 2x/3, but then an equal sum is added, and the two effectively cancel each other out. This means that the value of the first expression is essentially 2x/3, which is option D.</span>
