Answer:

17 boys and 11 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where b is the number of boys and g is the number of girls:

b + g = 28

b = g + 6

Solve by substitution, by substituting the second equation into the first one:

b + g = 28

(g + 6) + g = 28

2g + 6 = 28

2g = 22

g = 11

So, there are 11 girls.

Since there are 6 more boys than girls, there are 17 boys.

So, there are 17 boys and 11 girls in the class.

viktelen [127]
To get from 40% to 100%, divide by 2 and multiply by 5.
I.e. 40/2 = 20
20 x 5 = 100%

Do the exact same for 102
102/2 = 51
51 x 5 = 255 students

How can I solve this math equation?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Graphing

Step-by-step explanation:

1) You can graph this equation by using y=mx+b. You can replace that equation with y=3x-1.

M=3

X=x

B=-1

On a graph you would down 1 since it's negative and make a point. Then you would put a 1 under the 3 to make it a fraction. 3/1. Then you would divide 1 by 3 (1 ÷ 3). Then you would go to the right 0.33 because it's positive, and the up 1. Then you would make a second point.

This would only give you one line which wouldn't give you an intersection.
