If 9:7 is the ratio, there are here 116 more boys than girls how many total students are there

1 answer:

8 0

Now, let's say there are "b" boys and "g" gals... ok... well, we know there are 116 more boys than gals..... so, if there are "g" gals then there must be "g + 116" boys.

$\bf \cfrac{boys}{girls}\qquad 9:7\qquad \cfrac{9}{7}\implies \cfrac{9}{7}=\cfrac{\stackrel{boys}{g+116}}{\stackrel{girls}{g}}\implies 9g=7g+812
\\\\\\
2g=812\implies g=\cfrac{812}{2}\implies g=\stackrel{girls}{406}$

what's the total class? well is g + b or g + ( g + 116).

Whats the equation for the slopes (-3,12) (5,2)

bazaltina [42]

$m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{2 - 12}{5 - (-3)} = \frac{-10}{5 + 3} = \frac{-10}{8} = -1\frac{1}{4}$

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 2 = -1¹/₄(x - 5)
y - 2 = -1¹/₄(x) + 1¹/₄(5)
y - 2 = -1¹/₄x + 6¹/₄
+ 2 + 2
y = -1¹/₄x + 8¹/₄
