Answer: There are 13 boys on the team.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since 48% of the students are 12 girls.

100%-48% = 52% are the rest of the team (boys)

Now we have to write a proportion:

12 girls are 48% of the team: 12 girls /48%  

x boys are 52% of the team : x boys / 52%

12/48 = x /52

12/48 (52) =x

x =13 boys

There are 13 boys on the team.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

There are 13 boys on the swim team. 48/12 = 4. 1 person = 4% 100 - 48 = 52%
52% is boys. 52 / 4 = 13.

If f(x)=-2x-3 find f(4)
Naddik [55]

Answer:

f(4) = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 4 for x: Note that x = 4.

f(x) = -2x - 3

f(4) = -2(4) - 3

Remember to follow PEMDAS. First, solve the multiplication, then subtract:

f(4) = (-2 * 4) - 3

f(4) = (-8) - 3

f(4) = -11

f(4) = -11 is your answer.

Step 2: incorrect.

Use Quadratic Formula to solve for roots.

x = [7 ± √(7² – 4·2(-4))] / [2·2]

 = [7 ± 9] /4

 = -0.5, 4
