Add the ratios together: 5 + 3 = 8

Divide total students by 8:

32 / 8 = 4

Multiply each ratio by 4 to find the number of each:

Boys = 4 x 5 = 20

Girls = 3 x 4 = 12

There are 20 boys.

A is 5 years older than T. In 3 years, T will be 2/3 A age. How old is A?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

T + 5 = A

Therefore T =A - 5

In three years T = 3+ (A-5)

thus T = A - 2

Also in three years T = 2/3 (A+3)

Equating the two

A -2 = 2/3 (A+3)

3A - 6 = 2A + 6

3A - 2A = 6 + 6

Therefore A = 12

The points plotted below are on the graph of a polynomial. In what range of x-values must the polynomial have a root?
joja [24]

Actually, I think the question should be, "In what range(s) of x-values must there be a root of the POLYNOMIAL?" Unless you are working with some real strange maths, polynomials are smooth and continuous. If you drew a smooth and continuous line through the points in the graph, where would the line have to cross the x-axis?
