Answer:

45 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Remark
  • There are only 2 choices for gender. So if the class is 60% girls, the there must be 100 - 60 = 40% for the boys.
  • But we are told that the boys are 30 in number.
  • Let x = the total number of students.

Solution

  • 40/100 * x = 30              Change the % to a decimal
  • 0.4 x = 30                       Divide both sides by 0.4
  • 0.4 x / 0.4 = 30 / 0.4      Do the division
  • x = 30/0.4
  • x = 75 students in total

Formula

Total of Boys and Girls = Number of boys + number of girls.

Givens

  • Total = 75
  • Number of boys = 30

Solution II

  • 75 = x + 30                 Subtract 30 from each side
  • 75 - 30 = x +30 - 30
  • 45 = x
  • There are 45 girls in the class.

If m∠UNR = 180° find m∠RNS<br> A. 27°<br> B. 34°<br> C. 59°<br> D. 94°
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Option A) m∠RNS=27°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that m∠UNR = 180°. This tells us that the Sum of the enclosed angles should equal 180°, by trigonometry. So the enclosed angles are:

m∠RNS = (3x+6)^{o}

m∠SNT= (13x+3)^{o}

m∠TNU= (10x-11)^{o}

Now let us add all the angles and solve for the value of x as follow:

m_{RSN}+m_{SNT}+m_{TNU}=m_{UNR}\\\\(3x+6)+(13x+3)+(10x-11)=180\\\\3x+13x+10x+6+3-11=180\\\\26x-2=180\\\\26x=180+2\\\\26x=182\\\\

x=\frac{182}{26} \\\\x=7

Now lets plug in the value into the expression for angle m∠RNS to find the angle as:

RNS = (3x+6)^{o}\\\\RNS=(3(7)+6)^{o}\\\\RNS=(21+6)^{o}\\\\RNS=27^{o}

Thus Option A. is the correct answer.
