5 0

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of girls is represented by 3 parts of the ratio.

Divide number of girls by 3 to find value of one part of ratio.

\frac{15}{3} = 5 ← value of 1 part of ratio, thus

5 parts = 5 × 5 = 25 ← number of boys

Total members = 15 + 25 = 40

Short side length = x

Medium side = x + 7

Long side = 5x

Total 49, so

x + x + 7 + 5x = 49

If you combine like terms:

7x + 7 = 49

Subtract 7 from both sides

7x = 42

Divide both sides by 7

x = 6 inches.
