Answer:

A: 19:26 B:7:8 C:26:45

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question A</u>

First to find the ratio between the boys and girls you would add all of the different groups with boys and girls. This would be done by,

<u>Boys</u>

9+10=19

<u>Girls</u>

12+14=26

Now that you have the total number of boys and girls you make this ratio,

19:26

That is the final answer

<u>Question B</u>

For this it is very similar to the boys to girls ratio. You still add the total on each side and then form a ratio. From before you would start by adding both of the different sides which would be done by,

<u>Fifth Graders</u>

12+9=21

<u>Sixth Graders</u>

14+10=24

Now that you have the total number of both of the different grades you make this ratio,

21:24

You can simplify this by finding the lowest common factor which would be

7:8

<u>Question C</u>

To answer this it is very similar to the first two but instead you will find one group and all of the groups to form the ratio. Now you need to add all of the people in each of the groups.

<u>Girls</u>

12+14=26

<u>All</u>

12+9+14+10=45

Now with the total number of both you will form a ratio

26:45

This is your final answer because you cant simplify this any further

Why is the petrol price cheaper at coastal than inland
Daniel [21]

Answer: If a litre of fuel at the coast (95 octane) costs R13,89, then 38% is tax. The difference between inland and coastal fuel prices is mainly due to transport costs of the fuel from depots at the coat to inland outlets.

Graph the following equation: y = -4x + 2​
padilas [110]

To find graph this, you need to understand the equation.

The formula is y=mx+b, m being slope and b being y-intercept.

We start out graphing by finding where the y-intercept is--and we see that our intercept is 2. Place a point on (0, 2).

Now, we need to add our slope. Start at (0, 2) and go up 4 units. Next go to the LEFT (we have a negative slope, remember?). Continue this pattern.

It should look like this once it's done:
