Answer:

150 boys were enrolled in 2012

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys enrolled in 2012 be x

Let the number of girls enrolled in 2012 be x + 200

Ratio of boys to girls in 2012 enrollment = 3/7

Now;

3/7 = x/x + 200

7x = 3(x + 200)

7x = 3x + 600

7x - 3x = 600

4x = 600

x = 600/4

x = 150 boys

Hence, 150 boys were enrolled in 2012

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

\boxed{\bold{-4nx-ny+2x-6y}}

Explanation:

Rewrite:

= \bold{-n\left(4x+y\right)+2\left(x-3y\right)}

Expand \bold{-n\left(4x+y\right): \ -4nx-ny}

= \bold{-4nx-ny+2\left(x-3y\right)}

Expand \bold{2\left(x-3y\right): \ 2x-6y}

= \bold{-4nx-ny+2x-6y}
