School a has 480 students and 16 classrooms. school b has 192 students and 12 classrooms.
how many students would have to transfer from school eddie to school be for the ratio of students to classrooms at both schools to be the same explain your reasoning

96

Step-by-step explanation:

A; 480/16 = 30 students per classroom

B: 192/12 =16 students per classroom

we need x such that

which means

(480-x )* 12 should be equal to (192+x) * 16

5,760 - 12x = 3,072+16x

5,760 - 3,072 = 12x + 16x

2,688 = 28x

x = 96

for this case we have by definition, if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1.

then, given the following line:

so,

we are looking for m_ {2}:

then, the line is given by:

we find "b" replacing the given point:

finally, the equation is:

option c
