A random sample of students were chosen from all of 7th grade. There were 3 boys and 5 girls in that sample. If there are a total of 240 students on campus, how many students might be boys?

90

Step-by-step explanation:

3 boys

5 girls,

Say that there where "x" number of groups like this, (x will be the total number of groups like this, if one were to divide the population by the number of groups, they would the number of students);

Set up an equation;

x ( 3 + 5 ) = 240

Combine like terms and distribute;

8x = 240

Inverse operations;

8x = 240

/8        /8

x = 30

Substitute back in to find the number of boys;

30 * 3 = 90

the answer is d

the answer is in the first quadrant, which make the y-int positive.

since the dots are going down, therefore the correlation is negative

i hope it is right.
