Hello!
Convert the percentages to decimals by dividing them by 100, and then multiply them by the amount of boys and girls.
53 ÷ 100 = 0.53 as a decimal
0.53 × 300 girls = 159
This means that 159 of the 300 girls play sports.
Repeat this to calculate how many boys play sports.
39 ÷ 100 = 0.39
0.39 × 500 = 195
This means that 195 out of the 500 boys play sports.
Final Answer:
More boys play sports than girls.

Answer:
0.225miles per minute for boat and 0.025 miles per minute for current
Step-by-step explanation:
you just gotta love river current problems
lets use the formula d=rt
we're gonna modify it a bit
when your riding in a canoe with the current your going to go faster than against the current so
with the current: d=(r+c)t
against current:d=(r-c)t
where
d=distance
c=rate of water
r=rate of boat
and
t= time
so
4=16(r+c)
4=16r+16c
simplify to
1=4r+4c
2nd equation:
4=20(r-c)
4=20r-20c
solve by elimination:
(1=4r+4c)5
5=20r+20c
-
4=20r-20c
-------------------
1=40c
c=0.025-speed of water
4=20r-20(0.025)
4=20r-0.5
4.5=20r
4.5/20=r
0.225=rate of boat
hope this helps
I'd suggest re-wording your question:
"How do I find the ordered pair (x,y) that solves this system of linear equations?"
One way of doing that would be to substitute y=5x+7 into the other equation:
-3x - 2(5x+7) = -12. Solve this for x. Once you have a value for x, subst. that value into y=5x+7 to find the corresponding y value.
Then write the ordered pair (x,y). That's it.
