A class of 48 students has 22 boys and 26 girls. What is ratio of girls to boys in the class?

We follow the order operations to solve for the unknown value of x.

3(2x+5)=11x+5

Open the bracket on the LHS by multiplying each term by 3

(3*2x)+(3*5)=11x+5

6x+15=11x+5

Subtract 15 from both sides

6x+15-15=11x+5-15

6x=11x-10

Subtract 11x on both sides

6x-11x=11x-11x-10

-5x=-10

Divide both sides by -5

-5x/-5=-10/-5

x= 2

Thus, the value of unknown value of x is 2.

Let's calculate the number of each color of gumball:

• Red: 20% of 120 → 0.2×120=24
• Orange: 30% of 120 → 0.3×120=36
• Yellow: 5% of 120 → 0.05×120=6
• Green: 10% of 120 → 0.1×120=12
• Blue: The remaining percentage: 100%−(20%+30%+5%+10%) = 100%−65% =35%
• So, 0.35×120=42 blue gumballs.

Now, we find how many more blue gumballs there are than yellow:

42−6=36

Explanation: We know that 1 L=1000 mL and to change between L and mL we use the following two options

: We need to find the total rainfall for the months of May, June, and July using the given graph.

In the month of May, rainfall is between 3 and 4, which is halfway. Therefore, rainfall in May is 3.5 inches

On June, rainfall was 3 inch and on July the rainfall was 2.5 inches. Thus,

Total rainfall=3.5 inches+3 inches+ 2.5 inches=9.0 inches

The babies' measured weights change over time and depend on the time interval after birth. Since weight is the outcome being measured, it is the dependent variable in the study.

To solve this problem, first find the radius of the circle.

In this scenario, we use the given chart and scale provided to find the number of each coin and select the right number of coins the student collected.

It is clear that the first choice if the correct answer. The child collected 250 pennies, 200 nickels, 125 dimes, and 25 quarters.

When solving percent problems, the following words and their meaning becomes handy.

• Is means equals
• Of means multiply
• What means unknown (variable)

If we let x represent the amount of tip the couple want to leave behind, then

So, the couple will leave a tip of $2.84, which is about $3.00

: we are needed to find the portion of burger the two other friends share between themselves. A whole burger is 1, and we know that,

One friend=1/4 of 1=1/4*1=1/4

Remaining amount=1-1/4=4/4-1/4=3/4

Thus, ¾ of burger is left for two friends to share among themselves. Then, each friend will get

So, the other two friends will each get 3/8 of the burger.

 we are to find the selling price of the sweater from the marked price and the discount. The marked price is given as

Discount=mark off rate*original price

Discount=15%*$78

Convert 15% into a fraction, which become 15/100=0.15. Then

Discount=0.15*$78=$11.70

The selling price of the sweater will be the original price less the discount or mark off value. Then,

Thus, the approximate selling price of the sweater is $66.
