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.

Which one is a irrational number and why ?
Gnom [1K]

Answer: Option A, the square root of 40, is an irrational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 4 options:

- the sqrt of 40

- the sqrt of 49

- the sqrt of 100

- the sqrt of 9

All but one are perfect squares. Let's find out which one is not a perfect square.

The sqrt of 49 is 7. 7 times 7 is equal to 49.

The sqrt of 100 is 10. 10 times itself is equal to 100.

The sqrt of 9 is 3. 3 times 3 is equal to 9.

What about the square root of 40?

We know it's not a perfect square, and it's somewhere between 6 and 7. So, the hint from the question tells us that imperfect squares are irrational. Then this must be the answer!
