\huge{ \bf{ \underline{ \underline{ \pink{Solution:}}}}}

Let,

  • Number of boys be 3x
  • Number of girls be 2x
  • Then, Total number of students = 3x + 2x = 5x

It is given that,

➙ Number of girls = 420

Then,

➙ 2x = 420

➙ x = 420/2 = 210

No. of boys = 3x = 630

Then,

➙ Number of students = 5x

➙ Number of students = 5(210)

➙ Number of students = 1050

  • ANSWER - 1050

A large rectangle is made by joining three identical small rectangles as shown.
vampirchik [111]

Answer: 35 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the image attached, the A large rectangle is made by joining three identical small rectangles,

The width of one small rectangle is x cm and the length of one small rectangle is 2x cm. Therefore the perimeter of the small rectangle is given as:

2(length + width) = Perimeter

2(2x + x) = 21

2(3x) = 21

6x = 21

x = 21/6 = 3.5 cm

x = 3.5 cm

From the image attached, the width of the large rectangle is 2x (x + x) and the length is 3x (2x + x). Therefore, the perimeter of the large rectangle is:

2(length + width) = Perimeter

2(3x + 2x) = Perimeter

Perimeter = 2(5x)

Perimeter = 10x

Perimeter = 10(3.5)

Perimeter = 35 cm

8x-19 = -12x+61 What is x?
olasank [31]

Answer:

x is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one: Add 12x to both sides-

8x-19+12x=-12x+61+12x

20x-19=61

Step 2: add 19 to both sides

20x -19+19=61+19

20x=80

Step 3: divide both sides by 20

20x/20=80/20

x=4

Subtract (x^2+3x-4) -(4x-2x^2-3)
Feliz [49]

Answer:

3 x^2 - x + -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

-(4 x - 2 x^2 - 3) + x^2 + 3 x - 4

Factor -1 out of -2 x^2 + 4 x - 3:

--(2 x^2 - 4 x + 3) + x^2 + 3 x - 4

(-1)^2 = 1:

2 x^2 - 4 x + 3 + x^2 + 3 x - 4

Grouping like terms, 2 x^2 + x^2 + 3 x - 4 x - 4 + 3 = (x^2 + 2 x^2) + (3 x - 4 x) + (-4 + 3):

(x^2 + 2 x^2) + (3 x - 4 x) + (-4 + 3)

x^2 + 2 x^2 = 3 x^2:

3 x^2 + (3 x - 4 x) + (-4 + 3)

3 x - 4 x = -x:

3 x^2 + -x + (-4 + 3)

3 - 4 = -1:

Answer: 3 x^2 - x + -1
