40 boys and 68 girls
let's start with variables and an equation.
boys: x
girls: 2x - 12
and we know that boys and girls make up the class. so let's add the two expressions.
x + 2x - 12 = 108
3x - 12 = 108
+ 12 + 12
3x = 120
x = 40 boys
BUT x is only the number of BOYS in the class. so we have to find girls now. let's plug in our value of x into the girls' equation.
2x - 12 = # of girls
2(40) -12 = # of girls
80 - 12 = # of girls
68 girls
let's check our answer!
68 + 40 does in fact add to 108, therefore our answer is correct.
D. 24x + 16y is your answer
Answer: it's 6x + 8 if you solve it
Answer:
98.88 ft^2 to nearest hundredth
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of slice = (37/360) * pi * 17.5^2 ( 17.5 = radius ( half diameter of 35))
= 98.88 ft^2
