There are several important information's already given in the question. Based on those given information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Total number of students in the school = 209
Ration of the boys to girls in the school = 6:5
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
6x + 5x = 209
11x = 209
x = 209/11
   = 19
Then
The number of girls in the school = 19 * 5
                                                      = 95
So there are a total of 95 girls in the school that has a total of 209 students.

professor190 [17]
Remember that complementary angles add to 90 degrees.

so therefor, you can find the complement of m<A by solving 

90 - 77 = A

A = 13 degrees

^^^ This explains the second part.

The compliment of a compliment can be found by subtracting the known compliment from 90 :)

A company surveyed 2,600 North American airline passengers and reported that approximately 75% said that they carry a smartphone
geniusboy [140]

The probability that exactly six out of ten carry a smartphone when travelling is; <u><em>P(6) = 0.146</em></u>

The missing part of the question is;

The probability distribution of x is the binomial distribution with n = 10 and p = 0.75.

Calculate P(6)

  • This is a binomial <em>probability distribution</em> problem that has a general formula as; P(x) = ⁿCₓ × pˣ × q⁽ⁿ ⁻ ˣ⁾

Where;

p is probability of success

q is probability of failure

n is number of experiments

In this question;

n = 10

p = 75% = 0.75

q = 1 - p

q = 1 - 0.75

q = 0.25

Since six passengers are randomly selected, then applying the formula earlier quoted, we have;

P(6) = ¹⁰C₆ × 0.75⁶ × 0.25⁽¹⁰ ⁻ ⁶⁾

P(6) = 0.146
