D. 35 is the answer. Since we know that 14=2k based on the knowledge given in the first part of the equation, we can solve for K. We learn that K=7. Then, we can substitute K into the second equation: y=(7)(5) which is 35.
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
1. put the compass at 3 inches
2. draw the arch mark at each end of the base line
4. put a dot were both arch marks intersect
5. draw a line connecting the triangle
6.repeat the following steps for the 4 inch triangle
X=number of boys
y=number of girls.
We can suggest the following system of equations:
x+y=33
x/y=3/8
We solve this system of equations by substitution method.
x/y=3/8 ⇒x=3y/8
(3y/8)+y=33
least common multiple=8
3y+8y=33*8
11y=33*8
y=(33*8)/11
y=3*8
y=24
x+y=33
x+24=33
x=33-24
x=9
number of boys /total number of students=9/33=3/11
There are 9 boys and 24 girls in the class.
Answer: C: 9. since 3/11 of the students are boys.
