Answer: Girls = 28, That is there are 12 more girls than boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys : Girls

5 : 7

To find the population of boys;

5/12 × 48

note ( 12 is gotten by the addition of 5 and 7)

5/12 × 48 = 192/12 = 16

The population of boys are 16

To get the population of girls;

7/12 × 48 = 336/ 48 = 28

Number of girls = 28

28-16 = 12

Therefore there are 12 girls more than boys

5 + 7 = 12
48 / 12 = 4
Boys: 4 * 5 = 20
Girls= 4*7=28

The cost of a parking permit consists of a one-time administration fee plus a monthly fee. a permit purchased for 12 months cost
julsineya [31]

let

x--------> the monthly fee

y--------> the administration fee

we know that

660=y+12x --------> equation 1

810=y+15x --------> equation 2

Multiply by -1 equation 1

-660=-y-12x ------> equation 3

Adds equation 2 and equation 3

810=y+15x\\-660=-y-12x\\---------\\   810-660=15x-12x\\ 3x=150\\ x=50\ dollars

Find the value of y

660=y+12x\\ 660=y+12*50\\ y=660-600\\ y=60\ dollars

therefore

the answer is

the administration fee is equal to 60\ dollars

Simplify completely x^2+4x-45 / x^2+10x+9
S_A_V [24]

Answer: x - 5/x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This algebraic fraction

The task to be performed here is factorisation and simplification. Now going by the question,

x² + 4x - 45/x² + 10x + 9, the factorisation of

x² + 4x - 45 = x² + 9x - 5x - 45

= x(x + 9 ) - 5(x + 9 )

= ( x + 9 )(x - 5 ), don't forget this is the algebraic fraction's Numerator

The second part

x² + 10x + 9 = x² + x + 9x + 9

= x(x + 1) + 9( x + 1 )

= ( x + 9 )( x + 1 ), this is the algebraic denominator.

Now place the second expression which is the denominator under the first expression which is the numerator.

( x + 9 )( x - 5 )/( x + 9 )( x + 1 ).

You can see that, ( x + 9 )/( x + 9 ) divide each other , therefore therr then cancelled and left with

x - 5/x + 1

or 12 inch in 1 feet so 12 times 5=60 so 60 inches

or you may have forgotton to put a number before the first inch word like 5 feet <u>3</u> inch

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

8.54

Step-by-step explanation:

formula:

d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2}

d=\sqrt{(-4 - (-7))^2 + (0-(-8))^2}

d=\sqrt{3^2 + 8^2}

d=\sqrt{9 + 64}

d=\sqrt{73}

d= 8.54

Factor to the given polynomial completely.<br><br> 4x³+24x²-288x
STatiana [176]

Answer: \Large\boxed{4x(x+12)(x-6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given expression</u>

4x³ + 24x² - 288x

<u>Factorize 4x out from the expression</u>

4x · x² + 4x · 6x - 4x · 72

4x (x² + 6x - 72)

<u>Cross multiply to factorize the remaining polynomial expression</u>

<em>The meaning is to allow the factored product of the constant to add up to the first-degree term</em>

x             12

x             -6

<u>Combine the result</u>

\Large\boxed{4x(x+12)(x-6)}

Hope this helps!! :)
