Answer:

133 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Total members = x

Number of boys = \frac{2}{9}x

Number of girls = \frac{2}{9}x +95

Number of boys + Number of girls = total members

\frac{2}{9}x+\frac{2}{9}x+95=x\\\\\frac{2}{9}x+\frac{2}{9}x=x -95\\\\\frac{2}{9}x+\frac{2}{9}x-x=-95\\\\\frac{4}{9}x-x = -95\\\\\frac{4}{9}x-\frac{9}{9}x = -95\\\\\frac{-5}{9}x=-95\\\\x = -95*\frac{9}{-5}\\\\x=19*9

x = 171

Number of boys = \frac{2}{9}*171 = 2 * 19 = 38

Number of girls = 38 + 95   = 133

laila [671]

Answer:

75% voted

Step-by-step explanation:

you add the 75 to 19 to figure out the total amount of people in the club.

75+19=76

Then you divide the people who voted which is 57 by the total amount of people in the club which is 76

57/76=0.75

then you move the decimal two places to the left and you get 75%

what is the best approximation of the solution to the system to the nearest valus 2x-3y=-6 and x+2y=8
Trava [24]
Given:
2x - 3y = -6  ⇒ identified as 1st equation
x + 2y = 8    ⇒ identified as 2nd equation

Let us first get the value of x using the 2nd equation.
x + 2y = 8
x = 8 - 2y

Substitute x in the 1st equation with its value and find the value of y.
2x - 3y = -6
2(8-2y) - 3y = -6
16 - 4y -3y = -6
-4y - 3y = -6 -16
-7y = - 22
y = -22/-7
y = 22/7 simplified to 3 1/7

Substitute the value of y in the 2nd equation.
x = 8 - 2y
x = 8 - 2(22/7)
x = 8 - 44/7
x = (8 * 7/7) - 44/7
x = 56/7 - 44/7
x = (56-44)/7
x = 12/7 simplified to 1 5/7

To check:  x = 12/7 and y = 22/7  *we need to use the improper fractions.
2x - 3y = -6
2(12/7) - 3(22/7) = -6
24/7 - 66/7 = -6
(24-66)/7 = -6
-42/7 = -6
-6 = -6

x + 2y = 8
12/7 + 2(22/7) = 8
12/7 + 44/7 = 8
(12+44)/7 = 8
56/7 = 8
8 = 8
