Answer:

48 students in the class

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of girls to boys is 3 : 5 = 3x : 5x ( x is a multiplier ) , then

5x = 3x + 12 ( 12 more boys than girls )

Subtract 3x from both sides )

2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 6

Then

number of girls = 3x = 3 × 6 = 18

number of boys = 5x = 5 × 6 = 30

total students in class = 18 + 30 = 48

In the figure, AngleRQS Is-congruent-to AngleQLK. 3 lines are shown. Lines S P and K N are parallel. Line R M intersects line S
stepan [7]

Answer:

x=108

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

m∠RQS≅m∠QLK -----> by corresponding angles

m∠KLM+m∠QLK=180° -----> by supplementary angles (consecutive interior angles)

we have that

m∠RQS=x° ----> given problem

so

m∠QLX=x°

m∠KLM=(x-36)° ----> given problem

substitute

(x-36)\°+x\°=180\°\\2x=180+36\\2x=216\\x=108
