Let x =  the number of boys.
Let y =  the number of girls.

There are 48 children, therefore
x + y = 48           (1)

There are twice as many boys as girls, therefore
x = 2y                 (2)

Substitute (2) into (1).
2y + y = 48
3y = 48
y = 48/3 = 16
x = 2y = 2*16 = 32

x=32, y = 16

Answer: 16 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

the right answer was the same x and sampe y. it means in their intersection for both f(x) anad g(x)

so the correct answer is f(0) = g(0) and f(-4) = g(-4)

Need help ASAP <br> questions in the pics i have sent
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Picture 1

In right triangle ABC,

Side AB is the opposite side of angle C.

Picture 2

In triangle MKL,

tan(∠M) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

             = \frac{KL}{KM}

             = \frac{15}{8}

Option (1) is the answer.

Picture 3

In ΔXYZ,

sin(∠Z) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

            = \frac{XY}{XZ}

For the length of XY we will apply Pythagoras theorem in ΔXYZ,

XZ² = XY² + YZ²

XY² = XZ² - YZ²

      = (40)² - (32)²

XY = √576

     = 24

sin(Z) = \frac{24}{40}

sin(Z) = \frac{3}{5}

Picture 4

In right triangle DEF,

Cos(D) = \frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

           = \frac{EF}{DF}

           = \frac{75}{72}

           = \frac{25}{24}

Picture 5

In ΔABC,

tan(63°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

tan(63°) = \frac{BC}{AB}

AB = \frac{BC}{\text{tan}(63)}

AB = \frac{8}{\text{tan}(63)}

AB = 4.0762 ≈ 4 m

Option (3) will be the answer.
