Answer:

13 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 25 kids in total.

The fraction of kids that are boys and girls are:

B=\frac{15}{25}=0.6\\B=\frac{10}{25}=0.4

The mean number of coins for all kids is given by:

M=B*M_B+G*M_G

If we are given that M = 10, and MB = 8, then the mean number of coins for the girls is:

10=0.6*8+0.4*M_G\\M_G=\frac{10-4.8}{0.4}\\M_G=13\ coins

The mean number of coins for the girls is 13.

The field inside a running track is made up of a rectangle that is 84.39 m long and 73 m wide, together with a half-circle at ea
ioda

Answer:

The distance around the inside is 199.44 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Length = 84.39 m

Width = 9.76 m

Suppose, all the way around and 73 m wide.

We know that,

Perimeter of half circle is

perimeter = \pi r

We need to calculate the inner radius of the circle

Using formula of radius

r=\dfrac{D}{2}

Put the value into the formula

r=\dfrac{9.76}{2}

r=4.88\ m

We need to calculate the distance around the inside

Using formula of distance

Distance around the inside= two inner perimeter of the circle+two length of rectangle

D=2\pi r+2l

Put the value into the formula

D=2\pi\times4.88+2\times84.39

D=199.44\ m

Hence, The distance around the inside is 199.44 m.

Solving a right triangle (ROUND TO THE NEAREST TENTH)
Kay [80]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Subtract the sum of the given angles from 180 for B

B = 180° - (90 + 40)° = 180° - 130° = 150°

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

sin40° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{a}{21}

Multiply both sides by 21

21 × sin40° = a, thus

a ≈ 13.5 ( to the nearest tenth )

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

cos40° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{b}{21}

Multiply both sides by 21

21 × cos40° = b, thus

b ≈ 16.1 ( to the nearest tenth )

PLEASE ANSWER, WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!

<h3>Answer:  b = 17</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

The line must go through the point (5,2) which means x = 5 and y = 2 pair up together.

We'll plug these x and y values into the equation and solve for b.

y = -3x+b

2 = -3(5)+b

2 = -15+b

2+15 = b

17 = b

b = 17

The equation y = -3x+b turns into y = -3x+17
