Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys : Girls = 7 : 8

Let the number of boy = 7x

The number of girls = 8x

Number of boys after 20% increase = 120% of 7x

                                                            = 1.2 * 7x

                                                             = 8.4 x

                               

Number of girls after 10% increase = 110% of 8x

                                                           = 1.1 * 8x

                                                           = 8.8x                    

After increase in number of boys & girls = 8.4x : 8.8x

                      = 84 : 88    { reduce to simplest form by giving by 4th table}

                     = 21 :  22

Which statement is false?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:Choice A)  All points with an x-value of 3 are located in Quadrant I.

We can show it is false through the use of a counter example. For instance, the point (3, -5) is not in quadrant 1, but rather in quadrant 4.

We would need to say "all points with x value 3 and positive y value" to ensure the point is in quadrant 1.

Round your answer to the nearest hundredth BC=?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

BC = 1.71

Step-by-step explanation:

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse  in a right triangle

α = 70°

a: adjacent  = BC

h: hypotenuse = 5

sin α = o/h

cos α= a/h

tan α = o/a

we see that it has (angle, adjacent, hypotenuse)

we look at which meets those data between the sine, cosine and tangent

is the cosine

cos α = a/h

Now we replace the values ​​and solve

cos 70 = a/5

0.34202 = a/5

0.34202 * 5 = a

1.7101 = a

round to the neares hundredth

a = 1.7101 = 1.71

BC = 1.71
