There are 472 girls and boys combined. Subtract 116 from 472, then split this number in half.

472-116=356

356÷2=178

This means that each group has 178 people, but the girls side has 178+116.

Therefore, there are 178 boys in the class.

Answer:

x = 3 + 4\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

OPQ is a right angle triangle.

<u>Using Pythagoras</u>

x^{2} + (x+5)^{2} = (x+8)^{2}\\x^{2} + x^{2} + 10x +25 = x^{2} + 16x + 64\\x^{2} + x^{2} - x^{2} + 10x - 16x + 25 - 64 = 0\\x^{2} - 6x -39 = 0

<u>Using quadratic formula</u>

<u />x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}\\x = \frac{-(-6) \± \sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4(1)(-39)}}{2(1)}\\x = \frac{6}{2} \± \frac{\sqrt{192}}{2}\\x = 3 \± \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2}\\x = 3 \± 4\sqrt{3}

x = 3 + 4\sqrt{3} = 9.928(4s.f.)

             OR

x = 3 - 4\sqrt{3} = -3.928(4s.f.) (Length can't be negative)

∴ x = 3 + 4\sqrt{3}
