Answer: √7

Step-by-step explanation:

cos A = adj / hyp = √2 / 3

We need to find the angle A before we proceed

cos A = 0.4714

A = arccos(0.4714)

A =61.87

adj =√2 hyp = 3 opp =a

sin A = opp / hyp

sin61.87 = a / 3

cross multiply

a = 3 sin 61.87

a = 3 × 0.88188

a =2.6456

a = √7

Mr and mrs Jackson have 14 grandchildren. Find the ratio of girls to boys if there are four more girls than boys
natulia [17]

Answer:

5 boys to 9 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of boys

Boys = x

Girls = x + 4

x + (x + 4) = 14

2x + 4 = 14

2x = 10

x = 5

This means that there are 5 boys. Since girls = x + 4, 5 + 4 = 9. There are 5 boys and 9 girls.

I hope this helped and please mark me as brainliest!
