Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of students (32) corresponds to the total number of ratio units (3+5 = 8), so each ratio unit represents 32/8 = 4 students.
The 3 ratio units representing boys will stand for 3×4 = 12 boys.
The 5 ratio units representing girls will stand for 5×4 = 20 girls.
There are 12 boys and 20 girls in Janice's classroom.

<em>Additional comment</em>
I find the above solution to be the easiest.
You can also write a system of equations. Let b and g represent the numbers of boys and girls, respectively.
b/g = 3/5
b +g = 32
Multiplying the first equation by g gives an expression for b that can be substituted into the second equation:
b = (3/5)g
(3/5)g +g = 32
8/5g = 32 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
g = (5/8)(32) = 5·4 = 20 . . . . . . multiply by 5/8
b = (3/5)(20) = 3·4 = 12 . . . . . . . find b using the value of g
Answer:
Proportional: second and third, non-proportional: first and fourth
Step-by-step explanation:
Proportional relationships are linear functions that pass through the origin. Using this definition, we can conclude that the proportional relationships are the second and third options whereas the non-proportional relationships are the first and fourth options.
First combine the like terms 3y + 2y to get 5y. Then combine 4 + 1 to get 5. Your equation will now be 80 = 5y + 5. To solve for y, 5 needs to be subtracted from both sides of the equation leaving 75 = 5y. Final step to solving for y, 5 needs to be divided from each side of the equation leaving the final answer of
15 = y.
Answer: -3
Step by Step Explanation: This type of equation is called slope-intercept form, y=mx+b; the slope is m, so the slope is -3
Answer:
25x^2 - 60xy + 36y^2
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x - 6y) ( 5x - 6y)
Use foil to get the result when this is expanded.
F: (first term in each factor): 5x*5x = 25x^2
I: Use the last term first factor multiplied by first term second factor
- 6y * 5x = - 30xy
O:Outside. Use first term first factor and last term second factor
5x * -6y = - 30xy
L: last term in both factors -6y * - 6y = 36y^2
All them together
25x^2 - 30xy - 30xy + 36y^2
and combine
25x^2 - 60xy + 36y^2
