Answer:
The number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of number of girls to the boys = 3 : 5
Let the number of girls is g and boys is b initially.
b : g = 3 : 5
5 b = 3 g ..... (1)
Now, girls are 6 + g and boys are b - 9
So, the ratio is
(b - 9) : (6 + g) = 1 : 4
4 b - 36 = 6 + g
4 b - g = 42 .... (2)
From ( 1 ) and ( 2 )
And , g = 5 x 18/3 = 30
So, the number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.
For any kite, we have two pairs of congruent adjacent sides. In general, the kite would have sides of x, x, y , y. In this case, x = 19 is known while y is unknown.
The four sides add up to 52, so
x+x+y+y = perimeter
19+19+y+y = 52
38+2y = 52
2y+38-38 = 52-38 .... subtract 38 from both sides
2y = 14
2y/2 = 14/2 ... divide both sides by 2
y = 7
Therefore the opposite side of the 19 meter side is 7 meters
<h3>Answer: B) 7 meters</h3>
<u>It's not clear what is the specific requirement of the question, but I'll assume a couple of situations to help you with your real problem.</u>
Answer:
$45 (qualified)
$30 (did not qualify)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentage Calculations</u>
Relative quantities are usually expressed as percentages (%). We say x percent of y is the proportion xy/100. When discounts or surcharges are applied, they are subtracted or added to the original quantity.
The question explains I receive a 10% discount off the original selling price if the total cost plus shipping is greater than $35. Let's assume the total cost plus shipping is $50. Since it's greater than $35, it qualifies for a discount. The discount is 10% of $50 = (10)(50)/100= $5. So the new total cost will be $50 - $5 = $45
Let's suppose now the total cost+shipping is $30. Since it's not greater than $35, no discount will be applied and we have to pay $30
3x+4y=12
9x-2y=15
we will use elimination
multiply 3x+4y=12 by -3
-9x-12y=-36
9x-2y=15
_________ add
-14y=-21
÷-14 both sides
y=1.5
find x
3x+4 (1.5)=12
3x+6=12
-6 both sides
3x=6
÷3 both sides
x=2
x=2
y=1.5
