Ok,

8x - amount of boys
7x - amount of girls

8x + 7x = 195
15x = 195
195 / 15 = 13
x = 13

Plug in 13 for x
8 * 13 = 104
7 * 13 = 91

There are 104 boys and 91 girls

Hope this helps!

What is the solution set of the equation?<br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7Bx%7D%20-18%2B9x%3Dx" id="TexFormula1"
bagirrra123 [75]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x ∈ {2.07014981016}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be rewritten as ...

  √x = 18-8x

  x = 324 -288x +64x²

  64x² -289x +324 = 0

  x = (289 ±√577)/128 ≈ {2.07015, 2.44548}

Since √x must be positive, we know that ...

  18 -8x ≥ 0

  x ≤ 18/8 = 2.25

The larger of the above solutions is extraneous, so the solution set is ...

  x ∈ {(289 -√577)/128} ≈ {2.07015}

The equation of the tangent line can be found using slope formula and fact that slope = dy/dx.

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{y - y_0}{x - x_0}

where (x0,y0) is point A ---> (0,-1)

Then rearrange equation into slope-intercept form:
y = \frac{dy}{dx}(x - 0) -1

Finally sub in x=0 into dy/dx to get slope at the point (0,-1)

y = 3x -1
