Answer:

81 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to figure this out. Both ways are correct.

1. Fractions

9/7=x/63

from here you cross multiply

7x=9×63

7x=567

now to get x by itself you divide by 7

x=567÷7

x=81

2. If you have 63 girls and 7 girls to each group. You can divide 63 by 7 and find out how many groups you have which is 9. 9 groups, 7 girls each. For every 7 girls there are 9 boys. 9×9 ( 9 groups, 9 boys each)

9×9=81

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a: is not because in the distribution property, the answer would be for a, 9x+63.

b: yes.

c: it's subtracting, not adding. The question states adding

d: 7 is not the one being multiplied in the question, 9 is. Therefore b is right

The explaining is not good but im pretty sure it's b..

if you horizontally shift the square root parent function, F(x) = <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7Bx%7D" id="TexFormu

Juli2301 [7.4K]

ANSWER

$g(x) = \sqrt{x + 4}$

EXPLANATION

The parent square root function is

$f(x) = \sqrt{x}$

The translation

$g(x ) = \sqrt{x + k}$

Will shift the graph of f(x) k units to left.

The translation

$g(x) = \sqrt{x -k}$

will shift the graph of f(x) to the right by k units.

Therefore if f(x) is shifted 4 units to the left its new equation is:

$g(x) = \sqrt{x + 4}$
