Answer:

72 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

120 * .60. That's how you solve it! Hope it helps!

Further explanation:

To get .60, you divide 3 by 5 which is .60

Then you multiply 120 times .60 and you'll get 72 which is 72 boys

Bonus: 120 - 72 = 48 girls!

Answer:

There are 45 boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to easily solvethis is by making equations, see below.

let \: b \: represent \: number \: of \: boys \\ let \: g \: represent \: number \: of \: girls

b + g = 120 \\ b =  \frac{3}{5} g

Now we can subtract the secons equation from the first.

g = 120 -  \frac{3}{5} g

I'm also goong to multiply the equatipn by 5 to remove the fraction.

5g =  - 3g + 600

Now simplify

8g = 600 \\ g = 75

Now we found out there are 75 girls. Now we insert this into our second equation to find how many boys there are.

b + 75 = 120 \\ b = 45

Now we know there are 45 boys.

Katrina buys a 42-ft roll of fencing to make a rectangular play area for her dogs.

Answer:

(a) l = -w + 21

(b) Domain: 0 <em>(See attachment for graph)</em>

(c) f(w) = -w + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(l + w) = 42

l = length

w = width

Solving (a): A function; l in terms of w

All we need to do is make l the subject in 2(l + w) = 42

Divide through by 2

l + w = 21

Subtract w from both sides

l + w - w = 21 - w

l  = 21 - w

Reorder

l = -w + 21

Solving (b): The graph

In (a), we have:

l = -w + 21

Since l and w are the dimensions of the fence, they can't be less than 1

So, the domain of the function can be 0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To check this

When w = 1

l = -1 + 21

l = 20

(w,l) = (1,20)

When w = 20

l = -20 + 21

l = 1

(w,l)= (20,1)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<em>See attachment for graph</em>

<em></em>

Solving (c): Write l as a function f(w)

In (a), we have:

l = -w + 21

Writing l as a function, we have:

l = f(w)

Substitute f(w) for l in l = -w + 21

l = -w + 21 becomes

f(w) = -w + 21
