Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of any objects can be calculated by dividing the two objects with the common number.

Boys in the sixth grade = 35.

Girls in the sixth grade = 42.

Ratio of boys to girl = \frac{boys}{girls}

Ratio = \frac{35}{42}

Ratio = 5:6. (the numbers are divided by 7).

Thus, the ratio is 5:6 and not the 5:7.

Thus, Lonnie is not correct.

No... 35 divided by 7 is 5 and 42 divided 7 is 6 ... it should actually be 5:6

Explain the difference between the union and intersection of two sets.
MaRussiya [10]
The union of two sets<span> A and B is the </span>set<span> of elements which are in A, in B, or in both A and B. In symbols, . For example, if A = {1, 3, 5, 7} and B = {1, </span>2<span>, 4, 6} then A ∪ B = {1, </span>2<span>, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}.
The intersection of 2 sets depict elements that appear in both sets (all elements in B that also appear in A). In the Venn diagram, the intersection of the sets are always in the middle of both sets. I attached a photo to show you the perfect example of the intersection of sets. 
I hope it helps :)</span>
