Answer:
300 girls were there in the gym.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls was 4:3, after 160 boys left the gym, the ratio became 4:5.
Now, to find the number of girls in the gym.
The girls in the gym does not left, their quantity is same before and after.
So, we multiply the both ratios to make the girls ratio same:
4:3 × 5 = 20:15
4:5 × 3 = 12:15
Now, <em>we find the units of the ratio</em>.
<em>The ratio of boys dropped down by 160</em>:
20 - 12 = 8 units.
160 = 8 units
Now, dividing both sides by 8 we get:
20 = 1 unit
So, 1 unit = 20.
Now, girls = 15 units
So, 15 × 20 = 300.
Therefore, 300 girls were there in the gym.

Remark
Always the easiest way to study these questions is to get a graph. The one below shows
Red: y = x^2
Blue: y= 3(x + 1)^2
You will notice that (x+1)^2 shifts the graph Left -- the opposite to what you might think.
The 3 is a little harder. It narrows the red mother graph. Which choice says that?
The choice is between b and d. Why. Because the blue graph is to the left of the red one.
You have to learn the meaning of compressed. A better word might be narrows.
Answer
B
Answer:
x = 11
distributive law
additive law
multiplication property
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question an equation
4(x-7) = 2x-6
Distributive law
a(b+c) = ab +ac
4x - 4(7) = 2x - 6
4x -28 = 2x - 6
Use the addition property of equality to reduce the 2x on the right.
4x - 2x - 28 = 2x - 2x -6
4x -2x -28 = -6
Use the addition property of equality to reduce -28 to zero on the left.
4x - 2x- 28 + 28 = -6 + 28
2x = 22
Use the multiplication property of equality to reduce 2x to just x
2x2 = 22/22
x = 22/2
x = 11
The math I used is probably not the quickest way, but for me, the easiest.
25*5=125 25+20=45 45*7=315 125+315=440 25*4=100 440+100=540 5+7+4=16
B is your answer.
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
6+10=16
2+2=4
16/4 = 4
