Answer:

104

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys : girls = 3 : 1 = 3x : x ( x is a multiplier )

There are 52 more boys than girls , so

3x = x + 52 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x = 52 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 26, then

3x = 3 × 26 = 78 ← number of boys

Total number = 78 + 26 = 104

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

(0, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x- intercept, let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x, that is

7x - 4(0) = 28, that is

7x = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 4 ← x- intercept ⇒ (0, 4 ) as an ordered pair
