Answer with Step-by-step explanation:
4) Grade 7 number of students in terms of expression:
- Ilang-Ilang: x
- Sampaguita: x - 3 (3 students fewer than Ilang-ilang section students)
Answer: (c. ) x - 3
5) Number of students for each section:
Add:
(x) + (x-3) = 75
Find x, the number of Ilang-ilang students:
2x - 3 = 75
2x = 75 + 3
2x/2 = 78/2
x = 39
Solve for (x-3), the number of Sampaguita students:
x-3 = (39)-3 = 36
There are 39 Ilang-ilang section students and 36 Sampaguita section students.
Answer: (b.) Sampaguita = 36 and Ilang-ilang = 39
Check:
(36) + (39) = 75
75 = 75 (True)
