We can use trial or error method here...

If we take 4 table, 4*5 = 20 and 4*7 = 28. 20+28 = 48.
20 : 28 = 5 : 7

So, there are 20 boys and 28 girls in a school play and there are 8 girls more than boys.

If you look over tables and try it out, only 4 table works for the given ratio.

Answer:

4ft

Step-by-step explanation:

V=base*h= l*w*h substitute what you know

In 75 minutes you travelled 30 kilometers, so the rate is 30/75=0.4km/minute

another way is to use the two points to find the slope: m=(30-0)/(75-0)=0.4

The diagram shows a 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm cube.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

8.7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a 2-two-step Pythagoras theorem. (c^2 = a^2 + b^2)

Consider as such, If I were to draw a diagonal line along the base of the cube what is the length of the diagonal line. To find out that we use the theorem. We can substitute a for 5 and b for 5 as well. So

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 5^2 = c^2

25 + 25 = c^2

√50 = c

Then since the line side of the cube is on a 3d angle we need to do the same process again but now using the imaginary diagonal line that we just calculated and the height (5).

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

√50^2 + 5^2 = c^2

50 + 25 = c^2

√75 = c

c = 8.6602...

<em>when rounded to 1 d.p.</em>

c = 8.7

Line AB is 8.7 cm long.

Evaluate the expression. P(9, 3) · P(5, 4)
boyakko [2]

Answer:

P(9,3) *P(5,4)

And if we use the permutation formula given by:

nPx = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

And replacing we got:

\frac{9!}{6!} \frac{5!}{4!}= 504*5 = 2520

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we want to find the following expressionÑ

P(9,3) *P(5,4)

And if we use the permutation formula given by:

nPx = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

And replacing we got:

\frac{9!}{6!} \frac{5!}{4!}= 504*5 = 2520
