The ratio in which girls and children are born is 2 to 5, then the number of girls born is 10

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that the ratio of girls and children is = 2 : 5

Let the number of girls born be "2x" and number of children born be "5x"

Given that 35 are born, So total born = 35

Hence we get,

2x + 5x = 35

7x = 35

x = 5

So number of girls born is:

2 \times 5 = 10

Hence number of girls born is 10

How is a trapezoid similar to a parallelogram
Svetllana [295]
Trapezoid and paralellogram are both quadrilaterals

the heiarchy is
quadrilaterals are 4 sided figures
quadrilaterals is split up into
      A. no pairs of paralell sides
             - kite
       B. 1 pair of paralell sides
               - trapezoid/trapezium
      C. 2 pairs of parell sides (paralellograms)
           -rectangles
           -rhombus
           -square


so you can see that they are both quadrilaterals (quad=4, lateral=sides, quadrilateral=4 sided figure)

Factorize using identities (i) 1-64x³+48x²-12x
enot [183]

Answer:

(1 - 4x)³

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 2 terms are a difference of cubes and factor in general as

a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²), thus

1 - 64x³

= 1³ - (4x)³

= (1 - 4x)(1 + 4x + 16x²)

Thus

1 - 64x³ + 48x² - 12x ← factor out 12x from each of the 2 terms

= (1 - 4x)(1 + 4x + 16x²) + 12x(4x - 1) ← factor out - 1 from (4x - 1)

= (1 - 4x)(1 + 4x + 16x²) - 12x(1 - 4x) ← factor out (1 - 4x) from the terms

= (1 - 4x)(1 + 4x + 16x² - 12x)

= (1 - 4x)(1 - 8x + 16x²) ← perfect square

= (1 - 4x)(1 - 4x)²

= (1 - 4x)³  ← in factored form

A plane flies at x miles per hour in still air. Flying with a tailwind, its speed is 485 miles per hour. Against the wind, its a
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:20mph

Step-by-step explanation:

speed of plane = x mph

Speed of plane with wind = 485 mph

So therefore, speed of wind =

485 - x

Speed of plane against wind = 445 mph

So therefore, speed of wind =

x - 445

So therefore, equating the 2 equations of speed of wind

485 - x = x - 445

Collect like terms

485 + 445 = x + x

930 = 2x

2x = 930

x = 930/2 = 465 mph

Speed of wind = x = 465mph

So we put this value on any of the equations for speed of wind

Speed of wind = x - 445 = 465 - 445

= 20 mph

So therefore, speed of wind = 20mph
