Answer:

7 groups, 3 boys and 8 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of groups be x

and total hikers in one group be y

if number of girls and boys in every group is same, then

\frac{21}{x} + \frac{56}{x} = y

\frac{21 + 56}{x} = y\\x*y = 77 ....(1)

from (1) x will either be 11 or 7

for x = 11 the values won't be real.

For x = 7\\y = \frac{77}{7} \\y = 11

so there will be 7 groups with 11 hikers in each groups and every group will have \frac{21}{7} = 3 boys and \frac{56}{7} = 8 girls

use the graphing calculator to graph the quadratic function y = x2 − 5x − 36. Which value is a solution of 0 = x2 − 5x − 36?
daser333 [38]

The solutions of the quadratic equation x² - 5x - 36 = 0 are -4 and 9.

The graph is attached below.

  • We are given a quadratic function.
  • A polynomial equation of degree two in one variable is a quadratic equation.
  • The function given to us is :
  • y = x² - 5x - 36
  • We need to find the solution of the quadratic function.
  • To find the roots, let y = 0.
  • x² - 5x - 36 = 0
  • Use the quadratic formula.
  • In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a formula that gives the solution(s) to a quadratic equation.
  • x = [-b±√b²-4ac]/2a
  • x = [-(-5) ± √25 - 4(1)(-36)]/2(1)
  • x = (5 ± √25 + 144)/2
  • x = (5 ± √169)/2
  • x = (5 ± 13)/2
  • x = 9 or x = -4
