Answer:

There are <u>35 boys</u> in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Girls to Boys ratio = 3:7

Total number of students in class = 50

Let total number of girls be '3x' and total number of boys be '7x'

Total number of girls + Total number of boys = Total number of students

3x + 7x = 50

10x = 50

x = 50/10

x = 5

$\therefore$

Total number of girls = 3 × 5 = 15

Total number of boys = 7 × 5 = 35

Nikitich [7]

By means of <em>functions</em> theory and the characteristics of <em>linear</em> equations, the <em>absolute</em> extrema of the <em>linear</em> equation f(x) = - 3 · x + 3 are 27 (<em>absolute</em> maximum) for x = - 8 and - 9 (<em>absolute</em> minimum) for x = 4. (- 8, 27) and (4, - 9).

<h3>What are the absolute extrema of a linear equation within a closed interval?</h3>

According to the functions theory, <em>linear</em> equations have no absolute extrema for all <em>real</em> numbers, but things are different for any <em>closed</em> interval as <em>absolute</em> extrema are the ends of <em>linear</em> function. Now we proceed to evaluate the function at each point:

Absolute maximum

f(- 8) = - 3 · (- 8) + 3

f(- 8) = 27

Absolute minimum

f(4) = - 3 · 4 + 3

f(4) = - 9
