Answer: 28 students

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of being a girl is 4/7 which means that the probability of being a boy is 3/7 as the fractions must add up to 1.

Assuming the number of people in class is x then the following expression can be used to solve for it;

$\frac{3}{7} x = 12\\\\3x = 12 * 7\\\\x = \frac{12 * 7 }{3} \\\\x = 28$

Step-by-step explanation:

+ we take t- number of tickets and each ticket cost $7.

So t is too the number of people who buy tickets, then

$0\leq t\leq 200$

A) We can calculate the amount of money: M= 7t where $0\leq t\leq 200$

B) The domain for t is $0\leq t\leq 200$ , t is an integer.

C) The range for the amount M:

$0*7\leq M\leq 200*7\\0\leq M\leq 1400$

Which line has the same slope as the line passing through (- 4, -1) and (-1, 8)

Troyanec [42]

The slope is [ 8 - (-1) ] / [ -1 - (-4) ] = 9 / 3 = 3;

The line has the equation: y - 8 = 3( x + 1);

y - 8 = 3x + 3;

y = 3x + 11.
