Answer:

66 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

●120% boys of girls

▪︎1.2 × g

☆when g is the number of girls

●80 boys

▪︎meaning you can set up a proportion

Solving:

g × 1.2 = 80

g=80/1.2

g=66.66

So, since you can't go over percent, the answer is 66.

Checking:

g × 1.2 = 80

66 × 1.2 = 80

80=80✅

Which number below best represents a credit of $17.16?
PIT_PIT [208]
B. 17.16 represents a credit of $17.16; "credits" mean that you're receiving something, so it's added. A is incorrect because it shows the money being taken away and that isn't what a credit does. C and D aren't even the same amount of money in the question, so they aren't your answer either.

Solve for x in the given interval.<br><br> sec x= -2√3/3, for π/2 ≤x≤π
drek231 [11]

Answer:

b. x=\frac{5\pi}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

\sec x=-\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3},\:\:for\:\:\frac{\pi}{2}\le x \le \pi

Recall that the reciprocal of the cosine ratio is the secant ratio.

This implies that;

\frac{1}{\cos x}=-\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3}

\Rightarrow \cos x=-\frac{3}{2\sqrt{3} }

\Rightarrow \cos x=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

We take the inverse cosine of both sides to obtain;

x=\cos^{-1}(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})

x=\frac{5\pi}{6}
