There are 420 children in a school. 45% of the pupils are boys. How many boys are there?
How many girls are there?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 1 \% = (1)/(100) \n \n 45 \% =(45)/(100)=(9)/(20)\n \n total \ children : 420 \n \n boys : \n \n420 \cdot 45 \% = 420 \cdot (9)/(20)= 21\cdot 9 =189 \n \n girls : \ \n \n 420 -189 = 231
Answer 2
Answer: total children = 420
boys = 45% of 420 = 189 boys
Girls = (100-45)% = 55% of 420 = 231 boys

Answer:

C) 7

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

Work Shown:

Use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Plug in the given slope we want m = -5/3 and also the coordinates of the points. Then isolate r

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-5/3 = (2-r)/(r-4)

-5(r-4) = 3(2-r) .... cross multiplying

-5r+20 = 6-3r

-5r+20+5r = 6-3r+5r .... adding 5 to both sides

20 = 6+2r

20-6 = 6+2r-6 ....subtracting 6 from both sides

14 = 2r

2r = 14

2r/2 = 14/2 .... dividing both sides by 2

r = 7

The slope of the line through (4,7) and (7,2) should be -5/3, let's check that

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (2-7)/(7-4)

m = -5/3

The answer is confirmed

Explanation
An inequality in mathematics is a relationship between two numbers or expressions.
It can be ≥,≤,< or even >.
≥mean greater than or equal to.
≤means less than or equal to
<means less than
>means greater than
Now to answer the question, all real numbers less than 69.
x<69 (Where x represent a real number).
