Answer:  220

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The ratio of boys to girls at a school is 9 to 11.

Let the number of boys be 9x and the number of girls be 11x.

Since there are 400 students attend the school.

Then we have the following equation :-

9x+11x=400\\\\\Rightarrow\ 20x=400\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{400}{20}=20

Now, the number of girls = 11x = 11(20)=220

Hence, there are 220 girls.

11th grade geometry:
Aliun [14]

Answer:

<em>The perimeter is 72 units and the area is 149 square units.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle SBA has coordinates S(15,-8),B(-2,21) and A(0,0)

Using the distance formula.........

Length of side SB = \sqrt{(15+2)^2+(-8-21)^2}= \sqrt{17^2+(-29)^2}= \sqrt{1130}

Length of side BA= \sqrt{(-2)^2+(21)^2}= \sqrt{445}

Length of side AS =\sqrt{(15)^2+(-8)^2}=\sqrt{289}=17

So, the perimeter of the triangle will be:  (SB+BA+AS)= \sqrt{1130}+ \sqrt{445}+17 =71.71... \approx 72 units.   <em>(Rounded to the nearest unit)</em>

The height of the triangle for the corresponding base SB is 8.89 units.

<u>Formula for the Area of triangle</u>,  A= \frac{1}{2}(base\times height)

So, the area of the \triangle SBA will be:  \frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{1130}\times 8.89)= 149.42... \approx 149 square units.   <em>(Rounded to the nearest unit)</em>
