Since 0.6 (or 60%) of the children were girls, 0.4 or 2/5 would be the answer for boys.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
The equation of the parallel line would be y = -1/2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To start we need to find the slope of the original line. We can do that by solving for y.
x + 2y = -4
2y = -x - 4
y = -1/2x - 2
Since the slope of the original line is -1/2 and parallel lines have the same slope, we know the new line will also have -1/2 slope. Now we can use that along with the point given in point-slope form to get the find equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 5 = -1/2(x + 8)
y - 5 = -1/2x - 4
y = -1/2x + 1
There are a lot of them
3/4 , 2/3 any fraction greater than .5 will fall in this category.
The interest that Marcos will get is 50000.
<h3>How to calculate the interest?</h3>
The following can be deduced from the information given:
Principal = 50000
Interest rate = 12.5%
Time = 8 years
The simple interest will be:
= (PRT/100)
= (50000 × 12.5 × 8)/100
= 50000
The amount that will be obtained after 8 years will be:
= Principal + Interest
= 50000 + 50000
= 10000
