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)

Which number line shows the solution to −6 − (−2)? A number line is shown from negative 10 to 0 to positive 10. There are increm
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The correct option is A) A number line is shown from negative 10 to 0 to positive 10. There are increments of 2 on either side of the number line. The even numbers are labeled on either side of the number line. An arrow pointing from 0 to negative 6 is shown. Above this, another arrow pointing from negative 6 to negative 4 is shown. A vertical bar is shown at the tip of the arrowhead of the top arrow.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided expression.

−6 − (−2)

Open the parentheses and change the sign.

−6 − (−2)

−6 + 2

Subtract the numbers.

−4

Now draw this on number line.

First draw a number line is shown from −10 to 0 to 10. with scale of 2 unit on either side of the number line. Draw an arrow pointing from 0 to −6 Which show −6. Above this, another arrow pointing from −6 to −4 which shows −6 − (−2) = −4. A vertical bar is shown at the tip of the arrowhead of the top arrow.

The required number line is shown in the figure 1.

Hence, the correct option is A) A number line is shown from negative 10 to 0 to positive 10. There are increments of 2 on either side of the number line. The even numbers are labeled on either side of the number line. An arrow pointing from 0 to negative 6 is shown. Above this, another arrow pointing from negative 6 to negative 4 is shown. A vertical bar is shown at the tip of the arrowhead of the top arrow.
