3 times as many boys as girls, so write it in the ratio 3:1 (Three boys for every one girl)
Add up all the numbers in the ratio (3 + 1 = 4)
Divide the total number of children (60) by the number you just worked out (4)
Multiply the resulting number (60/4 = 15) by the ratio of girls (1)
15 * 1 = 15, there were 15 girls in the class (And so 45 boys)

On the first day of spring, an entire field of flowering trees blossoms. The population of locusts consuming these flowers rapid
Elza [17]

Answer:

L(t)=7600e^{0.2273t}

Step-by-step explanation:

-The locust population grows by a factor and can therefore be modeled by an exponential function of the form:

P=P_oe^{rt}

Where:

  • P is the population after t days.
  • P_o is the initial population given as 7600
  • r is the rate of growth
  • t is time in days

-Given that the growth is by a factor of 5( equivalent to 500%), the r value will be 5

-The population increases by a factor of 5 every 22 days. therefore at any time instance, t will be divided by 22 to get the effective time for calculations.

Hence, the exponential growth function will be expressed as:

P=P_oe^{rt},\ \ \ P=L(t)\\\\\therefore L(t)=7600e^{5\frac{t}{22}}\\\\=7600e^{0.2273t}

Calcula y comprueba las ecuaciones: plisss lo necesito alguien me puede ayudar a) 2X = 6 b) 10 + Z = 20 c) P + 9 = 11 d) 3X + 8
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

a) x=3

b) z=10

c) P= 2

d) X=7

e) U=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Resolver una ecuación consiste en hallar los valores de la variable que hacen cierta la igualdad.

a) 2x= 6

El coeficiente es el número junto a la variable. En este caso, el coeficiente es 2. Para eliminar este número en la expresión 2x, debido a que la variable x esta multiplicada por 2, deberás dividir ambos lados de la ecuación entre 2, debido a que la operación opuesta de la multiplicación es la división.

(2x)÷2=6÷2

x= 3

Comprobar la solución de una ecuación se hace al remplazar la variable en una ecuación con el valor de la solución. La solución debería satisfacer la ecuación cuando se ingresa en esta.

En este caso:

2*3= 6

6=6

b) 10 + z= 20

En este caso se debe sumar o restar la constante que se encuentra acompañando a la variable en ambos lados de la ecuación de manera de aislar el término de la variable. En este caso:

10 - 10 + z= 20 -10

z= 10

Comprobación:

10 + z=20

10 + 10=20

20=20

c) P + 9= 11

P +9 - 9= 11 -9

P=2

Comprobación:

2 + 9= 11

11=11

d) 3X + 8 = 29

En este caso, se suma o resta la constante en ambos lados de la ecuación y luego se elimina el coeficiente de la variable mediante la división o multiplicación. Esto es:

3X + 8 - 8= 29 - 8

3X= 21

3X ÷3= 21÷3

X=7

Comprobación:

3*7 + 8=29

21+8=29

29=29

e) 2U + 8= 10

2U + 8 - 8= 10 -8

2U= 2

2U ÷2= 2÷2

U=1

Comprobación:

2*1 + 8= 10

2 + 8= 10

10=10
