Answer:

234

Step-by-step explanation:

So what we know is that

5x+9x= students

This equation is saying that for every 5 boys there are 9 girls

we can then plug in 364 for the number of students and add like terms

This means that 14x=364

this means that x=26

This means that there are 26 sets of 5 boys and 9 girls

this means that there are

130 boys

234 girls

Nookie1986 [14]
Use the compound interest formula.
  A = P*(1 +r/n)^(n*t)
where P is the principal, r is the annual rate, n is the number of compoundings per year, and t is the number of years.

For the first investment, ...
  A = 208,000*(1 +.08/4)^(4*5) = 309,077.06

For the second investment, ...
  A = 218,000*(1 +.07/2)^(2*4) = 287,064.37

Totaling both investments at maturity, Megan has $596,141.43.
