Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 450

20 % are girls

So, number of girls = 20\% \times 450

                               = \frac{20}{100} \times 450

                               = \frac{1}{5} \times 450

                               = 90

Now let no. of students having mobile phones be x

So, number of students not having mobile phones = 450-x

Now we are given that  A group of students have mobile phones with them, of which 40% are girls

So, This implies 60% of boys out of x having mobile phones.

So, number of girls having mobile phone =\frac{40}{100}x

Now we are given that Of those students without a mobile phone, only 10% are girls

So, number of girls not having mobile phone =\frac{10}{100}(450-x)

So, total number of girls :

= \frac{40}{100}x+\frac{10}{100}(450-x)=90

= 4500-10x+40x=9000

= 4500+30x=9000

= 30x=4500

= x=\frac{4500}{30}

= x=150

So, Number of boys having mobile phone =\frac{60}{100} \times 150

                                                                       =90

Hence there are 90 boys have mobile phones in that room.

Answer:

216 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

450 students: 20% girls, 80% boys

450*20%=90 girls

450*80%=360 boys

Students having mobile phones: 40% (OF THE 90) girls, 60% (OF THE 360) boys

90*40%=36 girls

360*60%=216 boys

[We honestly don't need to care about the girls without mobile phones as they are only asking how many boys have mobile phones]

A restaurant makes pizzas with 6-inch diameters ad 12-inch diameters. Which of the following statement is true?
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The correct option is c: the area of the 6-inch pizza is 1/4 the area of the 12-inch pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of each pizza is given by:

A = \pi r^{2}

Where:

r: is the radius

For the 12-inch pizza we have:

A_{12} = \pi (\frac{12 inch}{2})^{2} = 113.1 inch

And for the 6-inch pizza we have:

A_{6} = \pi (\frac{6 inch}{2})^{2} = 28.3 inch

The ratio between A₆ and A₁₂ is:

\frac{A_{6}}{A_{12}} = \frac{28.3 inch}{113.1 inch} = 0.25 = \frac{1}{4}

Hence:

A_{6} = \frac{A_{12}}{4}

Therefore, the correct option is c: the area of the 6-inch pizza is 1/4 the area of the 12-inch pizza.

I hope it helps you!

Line l is parallel to line e in the figure below.
agasfer [191]

Answer: The correct option are as follows;

(1) The triangles are similar because corresponding sides are congruent

(2) The triangles are similar because alternate interior angles are congruent

(3) In the similar triangles, Angle 3 and Angle 6 are corresponding angles

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached for details.

The line i and line e has been drawn and marked as parallel lines. Also two transversal lines m and n have been drawn to intersect in the region between the parallel lines to form two triangles (as shown in the picture).

From the information given, where line e intersects with line n we have angle 1, and where line e intersects with line m we have angle 3, and then the third angle is angle 2.

Furthermore, where line l intersects line m we have angle 6, and where line l intersects line n is angle 4. Also in this second triangle, the third angle is 5.

Upon close observation we would see that Angle 6 is equal to Angle 3, since the transversal m has cut across both parallel lines l and e. Similarly Angle 4 is equal to Angle 1 since the transversal n has cut across parallel lines l and e. Having that Angles 3 and 1 are congruent to Angles 6 and 4, we can conclude that the value of the third angle in one triangle is equal to the that of the third in the second triangle, that is, Angle 2 equals Angle 5. Also, if the angles are similar and the lines l and e are parallel, then the lines formed in both triangles are equal.

So our conclusions are;

The interior angle are alternate angles (Angles 3 and 6, Angles 1 and 4), and the third interior angles are Opposite (Angles 2 and 5 {Opposite angles are equal})
