Answer: 3444 boys, 4182 girls

Let there be 14x boys and 17x girls. Then there are 31x total students. Since 31x = 7626, x = 246. Then there are 14(246) = 3444 boys and 17(246) = 4182 girls.

-15.6 = -3.9r<br> please include an explanation of how you got your answer :) thanks

Mumz [18]

Here is the equation:

$-15.6 = -3.9r$

Since both decimals are negative, the answer will be positive.

Negative times Negative = Positive

Divide both sides by -3.9 to leave the variable alone:

$-15.6 \div -3.9 = -3.9r \div -3.9 \\ 4 = r$

r is equal to 4 → r = 4

vitfil [10]

Answer:

None of the answer choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pattern to this problem is multiply by 4, and subtract 3. However when doing 17 * 4, you get 68. Look how both of the answer chouces start with 68, and we haven't even subtracted 3 yet. This shows that the answer choices are wrong.

<u>Correct Answer: 65, 257</u>
