3:2=5
so girls are 2:5
set up the proportion
2/5=x/9
5x=18
x=3.6 girls; doesn’t work so no!

another way you can look at it is because there are 3 boys for every 2 girls, add 2 more girls, you’ll get 3 more boys
that makes the total of 10 people so 9 is impossible

$10,000+8.55 sales tax
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$10,008.55

Add 10000, and 8.55 to give the total.

10,000.00

The cents will be .55 since the $10,000 does not have any cents included.

The $8 will stay since the $10,000 does not have any dollars below 10 dollars.

So, the answer will be $10,008.55
