Answer:
The ratio of boys to girls to 5:7
Let the number of boys be 5x
Let the number of girls be 7x
5x = 30
x = 6
Now just plug in 6 for the x in 7x
and number of girls 7 x 6 = 42
Answer:
second option
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+ 6x² + 5 = 0
let u = x², then
u² + 6u + 5 = 0 ← in standard form
(u + 1)(u + 5) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for u
u + 1 = 0 ⇒ u = - 1
u + 5 = 0 ⇒ u = - 5
Change u back into terms of x, that is
x² = - 1 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± 
= ± i ( noting that = i ), and
x² = - 5 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± 
= ± 
= ± 
× = ± i
Solutions are x = ± i and x = ± i
Answer:
19 > DB > 5
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle Δ ABC, AC = 7, and BC = 18.
Therefore, the length of the third side of the triangle Δ ABC i.e. length of AB can have a maximum value of < (7 + 18) i.e. 25 and the minimum value of the length AB will be > (18 - 7) i.e. 11
Hence, the length of AB will be given by 25 > AB > 11.
Now, AB = AD + DB = 6 + DB {Since length of AD is given to be 6}
Therefore, 25 > 6 + DB > 11
⇒ 19 > DB > 5 (Answer)
Let us assume the length of a side of the square floor = x feet
Area of the square floor as given in the question = 320 square feet
Then
x^2 = 320
x^2 = (17.89)^2
Then
x = 17.89
= 18 feet approx
From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B".
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
AC = length of flagpole = 12 ft
AB = length of shadow = 14 ft
BC = length from the top of the flagpole to the end of the shadow = x ft
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of x,
x² = AC² + BC²
= 12² + 14²
= 144 + 196
= 340
x = √340
x = 18.4 ft
