Answer:

50 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

We have the ratio as

7:10

The total part = 7+10= 17

let the number of boys and girls be x

applying the part to all method

7/17= 35/x

cross multiply

7x= 35*17

7x=595

x=595/7

x= 85

Hence the number of girls is

=85-35

=50 girls

Solve the absolute value equation. 20x - 19 = 0
Phantasy [73]

To solve this absolute value equation, we can use find the solutions as follows taking into account the definition of absolute value, then, we have:

|20x-19|=0\Rightarrow20x-19=0,or-(20x-19)=0

Now, we can solve both equations to find the solution(s):

First case:

20x-19=0\Rightarrow20x=19\Rightarrow x=\frac{19}{20}

Second case:

-(20x-19)=0\Rightarrow-20x+19=0\Rightarrow-20x=-19\Rightarrow x=-\frac{19}{-20}\Rightarrow x=\frac{19}{20}

Then, both solutions are the same, because of the absolute rule (this is the point when y = 0, that is the x-intercept for this function.)

Therefore, the solution set is {19/20}.
