Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Represent the relationship between population of girls and boys

From the question, we have that

$Boys = x\\Girls = y$

Given that y is greater than x in the classroom;

One of the keywords in the given data is "Greater than"

The inequality to represent the system is the greater than sign;

In other words, >

Bringing x, y and > together to form a complete inequality; we have

$Girls > Boys$

Replace Girls with y and Boys with x

$y > x$
