Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
girls = 125
boys = 87
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of students in the 8th grade class = 212
Let g represent girls and b represent boys
Number of girls, g = 2b -49
Note that boys and girls in the class give a total of 212
So,
g + b = 212 ....eq 1
Slot in the value of g in the equation
2b - 49 + b = 212
2b + b - 49 = 212
3b - 49 = 212
Add 49 to both sides
3b - 49 + 49 = 212 + 49
3b = 261
Divide both sides by the coefficient of b which is 3
b = 87
Now that we've found the number of boys, let's find that of girls
We will slot in the value of b in eq 1
g + 87 = 212
Subtract 87 from both sides
g + 87 - 87 = 212 - 87
g = 125
So the number of boys is 87 and the number of girls is 125
Answer:
2 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
prime numbers=2,3,4,5,...
taking 2 and 3
2+3=5
5²=25
hence the different prime numbers are 2 and 3
