franklin school has 3 boys for every 4 girls in the fifth grade. there are 140 students in the 5th grade. How many boys are ther
marin [14]

Answer:

There are 60 boys and 80 girls in Franklin School.

Step-by-step explanation:

"franklin school has 3 boys for every 4 girls in the fifth grade." means that the ratio of boys to girls is: 3:4

It can also be written as 3/4

Also given

Total number of students: 140

We will use ratios to find the number of boys and girls in shool.

First of all, we have to calculate the sum of ratio which is: 3+4 = 7

Let b be the number of boys and g be the number of girls

Then

b = \frac{Ratio\ of\ boys}{Sum\ of\ ratio} * Total\ students\\= \frac{3}{7} * 140\\= 3*20\\=60\\g = \frac{Ratio\ of\ girls}{Sum\ of\ ratio} * Total\ students\\g = \frac{4}{7}*140\\= 4*20\\=80

Hence,

There are 60 boys and 80 girls in Franklin School.

Can someone please help me with this problem? You need to find the value of x and y by using the strategy of ELIMINATION. Please
Setler [38]

Answer:

x = 136/35; y = -⁹/₁₀

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)         7x + 8y = 20

(2)        7x – 2y = 29       Subtract (2) from (1)

                  10y =  -9        Divide each side by 10

(3)                 y =  -⁹/₁₀     Substitute (3) into (1)

      7x - 2(-⁹/₁₀) = 29

      7x + 18/10  = 29                       Subtract 18/10 from each side

      7x              =      29 - 18/10

      7x              = (290 - 18)/10

      7x              =          272/10        Divide each side by 7

        x              =           272/70

        x              =           136/35

x = 136/35; y = -⁹/₁₀

Check:

(1) 7(136/35) + 8(-⁹/₁₀) = 20

      136/5    -   72/10 = 20

      136/5    -   36/5  = 20

                      100/5  = 20

                       20      = 20

(2) 7(136/35) – 2(-⁹/₁₀)  = 29

       136/5    +    18/10 = 29

       136/5    +      ⁹/₅    = 29

                        145/5  = 29

                        29       = 29
