Answer: The answer is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that there are a total of 60 students who signed up for hockey, where there were 3 boys for every 1 girl who signed up. We are to find the number of girls who signed up.

The ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls will be 3 : 1.

Let '3x' and 'x' be the number of boys and number of girls respectively who signed up.

Therefore, we have

3x+x=60\\\\\Rightarrow 4x=60\\\\\Rightarrow x=15.

Thus, the number of girls is 15.

What is the length of side YZ to the nearest tenth please show your work!

<em>Length of side YZ to the nearest tenth is 16 ft</em>

To solve this question we would use the sine rule. The sine rule states that

<u>A/sin a = B/sin b</u>

if we take our angle a to be XZY, and b to be ZXY.

Going by angles in a triangle, ZXY = 180 - 90 - 35 = 55. This means that our angle b is 55º

applying the sine rule, we have

11/sin 35 = B/sin 55

11/0.5736 = B/0.8192, if we cross multiply, we have

B = (11 * 0.8192)/0.5736

B = 9.0112/0.5736

B = 15.7 ft

a giant pizza box in the shape of a rectangular prism measures 38m times 38m times 0.25m. what is the surface area of the box
Helga [31]
So the surface area of a box has this equation: A = 2 (wl + hl + hw)

w = width = 38
l = length = 38
h = height = 0.25

Plugging in:
A = 2 ((38*38) + (38*0.25) + (38*0.25))
    = 2926 square meters
