Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If the hypotenuse of a 30-60-90 triangle has length 15 then the shorter leg has length  5.5 , 6.5 , 7.5.

To find : What is the length of the other leg and hypotenuse ?

Solution :

For a  30-60-90 triangle, sides are in the ratio  1:\sqrt{3}:2

where, 1 is the shorter side,  

\sqrt{3} the other side

and 2 the hypotenuse.

Short leg = 5.5

Other leg = 5.5\times \sqrt3=5.5\sqrt3

Hypotenuse = 5.5\times 2=11

Short leg = 6.5

Other leg = 6.5\times \sqrt3=6.5\sqrt3

Hypotenuse = 6.5\times 2=13

Short leg = 7.5

Other leg = 7.5\times \sqrt3=7.5\sqrt3

Hypotenuse = 7.5\times 2=15

A nice riddle, mathematical riddle.

Assuming a turtle winning means the declared winner is the weaker one actually won over the stronger one.  In this context, the turtle winner is the one who has a lesser number of favourable votes.

The given rules for the points are as follows:
1. Point for the first choice must be greater than or equal to that of the second choice.
2. All points must be positive whole numbers.

Let's suppose we have Henry against Tim.
Henry is favourite of the voters and is the leading candidate, according to popular polls.
Tim is an excellent manipulator, sly, and everybody knows this.

On polling day, the vote count came out as follows (in point counts)

Henry      Tim
2              1
2              1
2              1
2              1
2              1
2              1
10            1  (Henry's own vote)
1          100  (Tim's own vote)
------------------
17        107  TOTAL POINTS

So Tim the turtle was declared winner of the race, and since everything was according to rule, even a recount of the votes did not change the results.

Be aware, voting by districts (instead of popular votes) also exhibits a similar problem.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Represent the relationship between population of girls and boys

From the question, we have that

Boys = x\\Girls = y

<em>Given that y is greater than x in the classroom;</em>

<em>One of the keywords in the given data is</em><em> "Greater than"</em>

The inequality to represent the system is the greater than sign;

In other words, >

Bringing x, y and > together to form a complete inequality; we have

Girls > Boys

Replace Girls with y and Boys with x

y > x
