Miss browns class has 24 students. there are 3 times as many girls as boys. how many girls are there ? step by step explanation please

18 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X represent the number of girls. Since there are three times as many girls, you'll use 3x.

Total students = Total number of girls + Total number of boys

3x + x = 24

4x = 24

x = 24/4

x = 6

 Number of boys = 6

 Number of girls = 3x = 3 x 6 which equals 18.

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
