A. 3/5 of the class are girls.
B. 96 of the pupils are boys.

A. To find this answer you subtract 2 from 5 to get 3 (numerator or top of fraction) then use 5 as the denominator or bottom of the fraction.

B. To find this answer, you divide 240 by 5, to show how many pupils are in 1/5 of the class (48). Then multiply 48 by 2, to get the 2/5 of the pupils who are boys (96).

I hope this helps!

Which is the first step in simplifying the expression?
Elenna [48]
\dfrac{3}{2 +  \sqrt{2} }

To rationalise the denominator, this is a standard step:
= \dfrac{3}{2 + \sqrt{2} } \times  \dfrac{2 - \sqrt{2}}{2 - \sqrt{2}}

Answer: Option A

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let me continue to complete the question, though it is not ask for

= \dfrac{3(2 - \sqrt{2})}{(2 + \sqrt{2)}(2 - \sqrt{2}) }

= \dfrac{3(2 - \sqrt{2})}{4 - 2 }

= \dfrac{6 - 2\sqrt{2}}{2 }

An airplane is traveling at a speed of 240 miles/hour with a bearing of 110°. The wind velocity is 56 miles/hour at a bearing of
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Actual speed = 288 miles per hour

Actual direction angle = 116.38^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

"Bearing" is the relative position of an object outside the plane compared to the position of the plane.  

Heading the the direction the nose of the plane is pointing.  

Course is the direction that pilot wants the plane to go.  

Wind direction is always the direction the wind is blowing from.  

The airplane is traveling at a speed of 240 miles/hour with a bearing of 110°.  

If the plane is traveling with a bearing of 110° and the wind is blown at a bearing of 325°.  

 325^{\circ}- 110^{\circ} =225^{\circ}

215^{\circ}- 180^{\circ} =35^{\circ}

The Ground speed will be in excess of the airspeed and true direction will be south if the indicated heading.  

The tailwind component is:

56 cos (35^\circ)

And the cross wind component is:

56 sin (35^\circ)  


And that is,

C^2 = (286)^2 + (32)^2


c = 288

So the actual speed of the plane is 288 miles per hour.

The deviation in the direction is:

Let the direction angle be 'x'.

x = tan ^{-1}\left ( \frac{32}{286} \right )=6.38^\circ

So the actual direction angle is 110^\circ+ 6.38^\circ=116.38^\circ.

Which numbers are solutions to the equation 30=x2
GaryK [48]

Answer:

x = +√30

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write 30 = x squared as 30 = x^2.

If x^2 = 30, there are two solutions:  x = +√30 and x = -√30.

Several possible answers are given.    x=30−−√ is closest to the correct one, but must be written as x = √30.  Please ask someone how to find the "√" operator in Brainly.  Or, just write "sqrt(      )" instead.
