Trying to get 3:1
Divide 236 by four=59
Then times 59 by 3
The ratio now is 177:59
3:1

Let x be the number of girls and y the number of boys

1st equation: x + y = 236

But for each y(boy), there 3x(girls)

2nd equation: y = 3x

Now solve :

|x + y = 236
|    y = 3x 

|x + y = 236
|- 3x + y = 0

You'll find  x(girls) = 59  and y(boys) = 177

What is the simplified form of 3 over 4x plus 3 + 21 over 8 x squared plus 26x plus 15
arsen [322]
This is the concept of algebra, we are required to add up the terms given above, here we shall have:
3/(4x)+21/(8x)+26x+15
when we sum up we get:
27/(8x)+26x+15
=(27+208x^2+120x)/(8x)
The simplified form of the summation of the terms is:
(27+208x^2+120x)/(8x)

The smaller triangle is a dilation of the larger triangle with a center of dilation at (2,−1) .
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Option B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle is a dilation of the larger triangle with the center of dilation at (2, -1).

we have to calculate the scale factor of the dilation.

One point of the large triangle is (-4, -1). After dilation it has become (-1, -1) of the smaller one.

If we consider the x coordinates of the point x = -4 has reduced down to -1 therefore scale factor = side of small triangle/side of the large triangle = (2 + 1)/(2 + 4) = 3/6 = 1/2

Therefore Option B. 1/2 is the answer.
