X is 9
12x + 17 = -1 + 14x
18 = 2x
x = 9
Answer:
<em>There's an infinite number of possible answers because there might be any multiplication of 3 for boys and any multiplication of 2 for girls. So, for example:</em>
<em>There might be 3 boys and 2 girls.</em>
<em>There might be 6 boys and 4 girls.</em>
<em>There might be 9 boys and 6 girls.</em>
<em>There might be 12 boys and 8 girls.</em>
<em>etc...</em>
<em>In each case the ratio stays the same - 3 : 2.</em>
<em>Of course there probably can't be more than a few dozens of people in one class, but theoretically we can raise the numbers up to infinite.</em>

Answer:
151 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Option (B).
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage change between two numbers a and b can be calculated by the formula,
% change = 
Where, (b - a) = Change in values
a = Initial value
If a = 16 and b = 20
Percentage change between 16 and 20 will be,
= 
= 
= 25%
If a = 20 and b = 16,
Percentage change = 
= 20%
Therefore, %change between 16 and 24 may be 16% or 20%.
Option (A),
= 25%
Option (B),
= 1.25 - 1 × 100
= 1.25 - 100
= -98.75%
Option (C),
= 25%
Option (D),
= 20%
Therefore, we can not use the calculation used in Option (B).
There are 16 ounces in a pound
62/16 = 3 pounds 14 ounces
