Answer: 8 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

The team is split into groups that have the same ratio as the whole team.

This means that every group must obey this ratio:

12 girls  :   18 boys

At the lowest form (dividing both sides by 6), the ratio is:

2    :    3

Every group must therefore be in a ratio of; 2 : 3.

In a team group that has 12 boys, the number of girls is:

2    :    3

x    :    12

3x = 24

x = 24 / 3

x = 8 girls

Answer:

  1. 13x² - 19x + 23
  2. -16x +17

Step-by-step explanation:

1 . (4x² - 9x + 16) + (7 + 9x² - 10x)

4x² - 9x + 16 + 7 + 9x² - 10x

13x² - 19x + 23

2 . (-2x + 6) - (14x - 11)

-2x + 6 - 14x + 11

-16x +17

Theres a saying: Dividing fractions dont ask why, just flip the second and multiply.

so a/b / c/d = a/b * d/c

-8/2 * -3/6

1. cross - cancel common factor 2

4/2 * -3/3

2. Multiply

-4(-3)/ 2*3

3. multiply numbers

--12/2*3

- -12/6

4. Apply fraction rule -a/b=- a/b

=-(-12/6)

5. divide

= -(-2)

6. Apply rule -(-a)=a

=2

Your answer would be 2

1)inside the triangule is 180º .There are 3 angules, one with 120º, theta and
angle ACB, lets call it x.

x + theta + 120 = 180
x + theta= 180-120
x + theta= 60
x= 60- theta
angle ACB= 60- theta

ernie thinks he is being stalked by his own shadow. if the ratio of ernie's height to his shadow's height is 1.5 to 1, and ernie
Anna71 [15]

The height of Ernies shadow is 4 feet when his height is 6 feet.

<h3>equation</h3>

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let x represent the length of his shadow. Given that the ratio of ernie's height to his shadow's height is 1.5 to 1. Hence:

  • (1.5/2.5) * y = 6
  • y = 10 feet

(1/2.5) * 10 = x

x = 4 feet

The height of Ernies shadow is 4 feet when his height is 6 feet.
