Answer:
150 boys were enrolled in 2012
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of boys enrolled in 2012 be x
Let the number of girls enrolled in 2012 be x + 200
Ratio of boys to girls in 2012 enrollment = 3/7
Now;
3/7 = x/x + 200
7x = 3(x + 200)
7x = 3x + 600
7x - 3x = 600
4x = 600
x = 600/4
x = 150 boys
Hence, 150 boys were enrolled in 2012

Step-by-step explanation:
Nancy takes a test that has two sections: essay and true/false. She scores 56 points on the essay. Each true/false question is 4 points. So x number of true/false is worth 4 points each or 4x.
Together her score will be 56 + 4x.
She wants to score more than 80 or > 80.
So her test can be represented as the inequality 56 + 4x > 80.
This is solved using inverse operations.
56 + 4x > 80
4x > 24
x > 6
This should be graphed as an open circle at 6 on the umber line pointing and shaded to the the right for numbers greater than 6.
