There are 75 girls because you add the ratio 3+5 = 8 then divide 120 by 8 to get 15 then there are 5 lots of girls so multiply 15 x 5 to get 75

Use the figure to the right to find the value of PT. T is the midpoint of PQ.

vichka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that T is the midpoint of line PQ, segments PT = 5x + 2, and TQ = 7x - 6 that are formed would be equidistant or congruent. PT = TQ.

Therefore:

$5x + 2 = 7x - 6$

Let's find the value of x

Rearrange the equation, so that the terms having x would be on your left, while those without x would be on your right.

$5x - 7x = - 2 - 6$

$-2x = -8$

Divide both sides by -2

$x = 4$

Plug in the value of x into the expression, 5x + 2, to find PT.

PT = 5(4) + 2 = 22.

The value of x and MN if N is between M and P, MP=60, MN=6x-7, and NP=2x+3

Sergio039 [100]

MN + NP = MP
6x - 7 + 2x + 3 = 60
8x - 4 = 60
8x = 64
x = 8

MN = 6(8) - 7 = 56 - 7 = 49

answer
x = 8
MN = 49
