Answer:

928

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of boys to girls is 9:7, so boys are 9/(9+7) = 9/16 of the total, and the girls are 7/16

the difference is 9/16-7/16 = 2/16 = 1/8, so

x * 1/8 = 116

x = 116*8 = 928

Which of the following is a solution of x2 + 5x = −2?
adoni [48]
X^2 + 5x = -2
x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0

x = -b (+-) sqrt (b^2 - 4ac) / 2a
a = 1, b = 5, and c = 2

x = -5 (+-) sqrt (5^2 - 4(1)(2)) / 2(1)
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (25 - 8) / 2
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (17) / 2

answer is : negative 5 plus or minus the square root of 17 divided by 2
