Answer:

24 boys & 20 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year:

Number of boys = x

Total number = 45

Number of girls = 45 - x

An increase of 20% is the same as multiplying by 1.2

A decrease of 10% is the same as multiplying by 0.8

This year:

New number of boys: 1.2x

New number of girls: 0.8(45 - x)

New total number = 45 - 1 = 44

1.2x + 0.8(45 - x) = 44

1.2x + 36 - 0.8x = 44

0.4x + 36 = 44

0.4x = 8

x = 20

Last year there were 20 boys and 25 girls.

This year there are 20 * 1.2 = 24 boys

and 44 - 24 = 20 girls

Answer: 24 boys & 20 girls

f(n)= n^2 -6n - 16

Set f(n) =0

n^2 -6n-16=0

Factor it

(n-8)(n+2)=0

Solve for n

n-8=0 n+2=0

n=8 and n =-2

Answer:

For A+B

a. 0.3+0.8 = 1.1

b. 1.2+1.4 = 2.6

c. 3.4 + 4.2 = 7.6

d. 2.25 + 2.95 = 5.20

For B-A

a. 0.8-0.3 = 0.5

b. 1.4-1.2 = 0.2

c. 4.2-3.4 = 1.2

d. 2.95-2.25 = .070

Consider the compound inequality x < 4 and x>a. If a=4 and the compounding word were "or" instead of "and",what would the
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

We have:

x < 4 AND x > a.

if a = 4 and we use an "or" instead of the "and" we have:

x < 4 or x > 4.

This is:

"x is larger than 4 or smaller than 4."

Then the solution of this is all the real numbers except the value x = 4.

The set of solutions can be written as:

{xI x ∈ R  \ [4]}

Where this reads:

"x belongs to the set of the reals minus the number 4".

Or we also could write it as:

x ∈ (-∞, 4) ∪ (4, ∞)

Where we have two open ends in the "4" side, so the value x = 4 does not belong to that set.
