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

Does -2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2) have one,zero or infinite solutions
Andrew [12]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

One solution (z = -1)

Discussion:

-2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2)        =>

-2z -6 -z = -z -4z - 8       =>

-3z -6 = -5z -8                =>  add 6 to both sides

-2z = -5z -2                     => add 5z to both sides

3z = -5z +5z -3               =>

3z = -3                            =>

z = -1

Thank you,

MrB

A rectangle has length X +5 and width X +4 if the perimeter of the rectangle is 42 m what are the length and width of the rectan
Maru [420]
The perimeter is 2(length) + 2(width), so 2(x+5) + 2(x+4) = 42 m. In solving for x, you find 6. Plug 6 back into your length and width where x originally was, and you find your length to be 11m, and your width to be 10m. Hope this helps!
