Answer:
The number of boys last year will be 50 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
330 members with 240 adults
The number of children will be;
330-240 = 90
2/3 of 90 are boys
= 2/3 * 90 = 60 boys
Number of girls is 90-60 = 30
Ratio of adults:boys:girls
= 240:60:30
divide through by 30
= 8:2:1
b) A year ago, there were 200 adults but the ratio still remains same
Let the number of girls be x, the number of boys will be 2x
Thus, total number is 200 + x + 2x = 200 + 3x
Total ratio is 8 + 2 + 1 = 11
mathematically;
8/11 * (200 + 3x) = 200
8(200 + 3x) = 11(200)
1600 + 24x = 2200
24x = 2200-1600
24x = 600
x = 600/24
x = 25
So the number of boys will be 25 * 2 = 50
Nevermind I did this wrong, forget that I had a answer.
The correct answer is B. -4<x<2.
This is because the domain is looking for the values of x that can be used in the function. In the picture below, you will notice that the leftmost point is at x = -4. This is as low as the x value goes. The rightmost point is at x = 2, which is as large as the x value gets. Therefore the domain is between those two numbers.
In order to change from 35 to 62, we have to add 27. So, the question becomes: which percentage of 35 is 27?
To answer this question, we set this simple equation
And solving for x we have
So, if you change from 35 to 62, you have an increase of about 77%
