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

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Steven starts with an account balance of $300

And with each passing month his balance increases by $150

Step-by-step explanation:

300 is you're start value

On the graph you can see that Feb. 1 hits the line on the graph between $300 and $600. You want to find half of $300, So you divide 300 by 2, And that give you 150.

Then with you can add 150 to 300 to give you 450. Then add 150 to 450 to give you 600. And repeat the process.

Hope This Helps :)

The product of two number is 1575 and their quotient is 9/2 find the number
Otrada [13]
(1) p x q = 1575
(2) p / q = 9 / 2
divide 1 by 2 to eliminate p:
q^2 = 1575 / (9/2)
q^2 = 350
q = sqrt(350)

Substitue q in either 1 or 2 to find p.
