Answer:

8 teams each team will have 4 girls and 4 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

We use GCD to solve this

the GCD of 32 and 24 = 8

8 is the greatest number of teams.

each team must have equal number of boys and girls so divided by two

8/2 = 4

4 girls and 4 boys

I have attached how to do GCD.

If you need any clarification or more explanation pls do mention at the comment section

Hope this helps and if it does pls mark as brainliest answer thx

Choose the correct option.Immersive Reader (1 Point) (A) z-5=2 is an equation and z=5 is the solution of this equation (B) t+2&g
melomori [17]

Answer:

<h3>Find the explanation below</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Given the equation z - 5 = 2

To get the solution, we will add 5 to both sides and find z as shown;

z - 5 = 2

z - 5 + 5 = 2 + 5

z + 0 = 2+5

z = 7

Hence z = 5 is not the solution of the equation but z = 7

B) Given the inequality expression t+2>5

Substract 2 from both sides of the equation;

t+2 - 2>5 - 2

t + 0> 3

t>3

Hence the solution t = 4 is not true for the expression. The solution is t > 3

C) Given the expression  x-2=2, to get the solution to the expression, you will add 2 to both sides of the equation;

x - 2+ 2 = 2 + 2

x + 0 = 4

x = 4

Therefore x = 4 is the solution of this equation.

Based on the question, only Option C is correct

a man is four times as old as his son in five years time he will be three times as old as his son what is the present age of the
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

I would start by setting up a chart like I did below.

Label one column age now and the other age in 5 years.

Since we don't know the son's age we use x.

We do know that the man's age is 4 times the son's age.

So the man's age will be 4x.

In the age in 5 year column, we add 5 to their current ages.

Now set up our equation.

Since it says "in five years" we use information in second column.

In 5 years time, he, "4x + 5", will be, equals,

3 times as old as his son, "3(x + 5)".

So we have 4x + 5 = 3(x + 5).

Solving from here, we find that x = 10.

So the son is 10 and the man is 4 times his age or 40.
