Answer:

Ratio = 11:9

Boys = 440

Girls = 360

Explanation:

Given that, in a school,

Total number of students = 800

Also,

Percent of boys = 55%

Therefore, number of boys = 55% of 800

No. of boys = 55/100 x 800

No. of boys = 55 x 8 =

No. of boys = 440

Therefore, we will get,

No. of girls = (800-440)

No. of girls = 360

Therefore, we will get,

Ratio of boys to girls = 440/360

Ratio = (40*11)/(40x9)

Ratio = 11/9

Hence, the ratio of boys to girls is 11:9 and number of boys and girls is 440 and 360 respectively.

boyakko [2]

Answer: C

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

5(z - 4) - z = 4z - 20

<u>5z</u> - 20 <u>- z</u> = 4z - 20

    4z - 20 = 4z - 20

   <u>-4z        </u>   <u>-4z        </u>

          -20 =       -20

               TRUE

Since it is a true statement, there are infinitely many solutions

Answer: D

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Eric: 1 hot dog

Mark: 1 hot dog + 1 soda + 1 peanuts

Total: 2 hot dogs + 1 soda + 1 peanuts

       =  2(3.50)        + x         + 1(4.00)

       =      7.00        + x          + 4.00

       =                         x + 11.00

Eric paid 3.00:  x + 11.00 - 3.00

                          x + 8.00

Mark paid 11.50 which was the balance owed: 11.50 = x + 8.00

11.50 = x + 8.00

<u>-8.00</u>    <u>     -8.00 </u>

 3.50 = x

the soda cost $3.50

Find the solution to the system of equations: x 3y = 7 and 2x 4y = 8 1. isolate x in the first equation: 2. substitute the value
DIA [1.3K]

The solution to the system of equation are x = -2 and y = 3

<h3>How to find the solution of a system of equation?</h3>

x + 3y = 7

2x + 4y = 8

Let's isolate x in the first equation

x = 7 - 3y

substitute the value of x in the second equation.

Therefore,

2(7 - 3y) + 4y = 8

14 - 6y + 4y = 8

-2y = 8 - 14

-2y = -6

y = -6 / -2

y = 3

Hence,

x + 3(3) = 7

x = 7 - 9

x = -2
