<h3>Answers:  100 girls and 25 boys</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

x = number of boys

The ratio of girls to boys is 4:1, meaning there are 4 times as many girls compared to boys. For example, the concert may have 40 girls and 10 boys.

For now, x is some unknown positive whole number. But we can say that 4x represents the number of girls, as we multiply by 4.

----------

We're told there are 75 more girls than boys, so,

number of girls = (number of boys) + 75

4x = x + 75

4x-x = 75

3x = 75

x = 75/3

x = 25

There are 25 boys and 4x = 4*25 = 100 girls.

We can see that 100-25 = 75 to show that there are 75 more girls compared to boys.

And also, the ratio 100:25 reduces fully to 4:1 after dividing both parts by the GCF 25. These two facts fully confirm the answers.

Write the equation in standard form<br><br> y = -10x + 6
Mumz [18]
Step (1) Flip the equation

−10x+6=y


Step (2) Add -6 to both sides

−10x+6+−6=y+−6

−10x=y−6

Step (3) Divide both sides by -10

−10x−10=y−6−10

ANSWER
x =  \frac{ - 1}{10} y +  \frac{3}{5}

PLEASE HELP 10 POINTS
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

180 degrees for a triangle. We add 87 and 53 degrees.

That equals 140. Again, back to 180 degrees. We minus 180 degrees with 140 degrees which equals:

40 degrees.

Find the volumeof eachfigure, round to th nearest hundredth I'd necessary
ad-work [718]

Determine the base of right triangle by using pythagoras theorem.

\begin{gathered} b=\sqrt[]{(15.7)^2-(8.5)^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{174.24} \\ =13.2 \end{gathered}

Determine the area of base of figure.

\begin{gathered} A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot13.2\cdot8.5 \\ =56.1 \end{gathered}

Determine the volume of the figure.

\begin{gathered} V=A\cdot6.2 \\ =56.1\cdot6.2 \\ =347.82 \end{gathered}

So volume of the figure is 347.82 yards square.

Your English teacher has decided to randomly assign poems for the class to read. The syllabus includes four poems by Shakespeare
Tresset [83]
The probability of event A and B to both occur is denoted as P(A ∩ B) = P(A) P(B|A). It is the probability that Event A occurs times the probability that Event B occurs, given that Event A has occurred.

So, to find the probability that you will be assigned a poem by Shakespeare and by Tennyson, let Event A = the event that a Shakespeare poem will be assigned to you; and let Event B = the event that the second poem that will be assigned to you will be by Tennyson.

At first, there are a total of 13 poems that would be randomly assigned in your class. There are 4 poems by Shakespeare, thus P(A) is 4/13.
After the first selection, there would be 13 poems left. Therefore, P(B|A) = 2/12
Based on the rule of multiplication,
P(A ∩ B) = P(A) P(B|A)P(A ∩ B) = 4/13 * 2/12
P(A ∩ B) = 8/156
P(A ∩ B) = 2/39

The probability that you will be assigned a poem by Shakespeare, then a poem by Tennyson is 2/39 or 5.13%.
