Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation: Personally, I would try finding the number of boys first and then subtract the number of total students by the number of boys. To find the boys, you need to subtract three from 27 since those 3 are girls which leaves you with 24. It says there is half the number of boys than girls when you subtract 3 so 24 divided by 2 is 12. The number of boys is 12 so now all you have left to do is subtract 27-12 to find the number of girls, which is 15. I hope this helped you and sorry if it’s really long :)

Answer: 15 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

27 - 3 = 24

24/2 = 12

12 boys

12 + 3 = 15

15 girls

15+ 12 = 27

What’s the reciprocal of 7/2a<br><br> 2a/7<br><br> -2a/7<br><br> 7/2a<br><br> -7/2a
vfiekz [6]
The reciprocal of a number (also called the multiplicative inverse) means 1/this number or (This number)^-1

So, to get the reciprocal of 7/2a, you need to divide 1 by this number as follows:
reciprocal = 1 / (7/2a) = 2a/7

The answer is : 2a/7

Civil an airport, a factory, and a shopping center are at the vertices of a right triangle formed by three highways. the airport
vekshin1

Answer:

<em>The shortest possible length for the service road is 2.88 miles.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the below diagram, A, B and C are the positions of airport, shopping center and factory respectively.

Given that,  AB= 3.6 miles, BC= 4.8 miles and AC= 6.0 miles

In right triangle ABC

tan(\angle ACB)=\frac{AB}{BC} \\ \\ tan(\angle ACB)= \frac{3.6}{4.8}=0.75\\ \\ \angle ACB= tan^-^1(0.75)=36.8698.... degree

The shortest possible length for the service road from the shopping center to the highway that connects the airport and factory is BD.

That means, \triangle BCD is also a right triangle in which \angle BDC=90\°, Hypotenuse(BC)= 4.8 miles and BD is the opposite side in respect of \angle DCB or \angle ACB.

Now in right triangle BCD

Sin(\angle ACB)=\frac{BD}{BC}\\ \\ Sin(36.8698...)=\frac{BD}{4.8}\\ \\ BD=4.8*Sin(36.8698...)=2.88

So, the shortest possible length for the service road is 2.88 miles.
