Step-by-step explanation: We can write a ratio using the word "to", using a colon, or using a fraction bar.
Here, since we want our ratio in simplest form,
I would use a fraction bar.
Now, the problem asks us to compare
the number of boys to the number of girls.
We know that there are 12 boys
and we know that there are 15 girls.
So our ratio is 12/15.
However, this can be reduced to 4/5.
Answer: If the question is formed as (- 3/5) x = 15
then A is correct
X=-25
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to this question is 22
8(x - 6) = 4x
Distribute.
8x - 48 = 4x
Subtract 8x from both sides.
8x -8x - 48 =4x -8x
Now you have...
-48 = -4x
Divide -4 by both sides.
-48/-4 = -4x/-4
12 = x
The number is 12.
It's impossible because there is no "N" point in rectangle JKLM.
