A school has 300 students.If the ratio of boys to girls is 31 to 44, how many more girls are there in the school?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

there would be 52 more girls I think

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = multiplier then

31x =number of boys

44x = number of girls

Boys + girls = 300

44x + 31x =300

75x = 300

x = 300/75

x = 4 is the multiplier

therefore:

44*4 = 176 girls

31*4 = 124 boys

dif = 52 more girls than boys

hope this helped :)

The area of the right triangle shown is 24 square feet. Which equations can be used to find the lengths of the legs of the trian
Gwar [14]

The equations to calculate the legs are 0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24, x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 and x^2 + (x + 2)^2 = 100

<h3>How to determine the legs of the triangle?</h3>

The complete question is in the attached image

The given parameters are:

Area = 24

Legs = x and x + 2

The area of the triangle is calculated as:

Area = 0.5 * Base * Height

This gives

0.5 * x * (x + 2) = 24

So, we have:

0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24

Divide through by 0.5

(x)(x + 2) = 48

Expand

x^2 + 2x = 48

Subtract 48 from both side

x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0

Hence, the equations to calculate the legs are 0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24, x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 and x^2 + (x + 2)^2 = 100

In the diagram abc=adb=90, ad=p and dc=q. Use similar triangles to show that x2=pz<br> plzz anyoneee
kramer

Answer:

By comparing the ratios of sides in similar triangles ΔABC and ΔADB,we can say that x^{2} =pz

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ∠ABC=∠ADC, AD=p and DC=q.

Let us take compare Δ ABC and  Δ ADB in the attached file , ∠A is common in both triangles

                                                                     and given ∠ABC=∠ADB=90°

Hence using AA postulate, ΔABC ≈ ΔADB.

Now we will equate respective side ratios in both triangles.

\frac{AB}{AC}= \frac{AD}{AB}=\frac{BD}{BC}

Since we don't know BD , BC let us take first equality and plugin the variables given in respective sides.

\frac{x}{z}= \frac{p}{x}

Cross multiply

x^{2}=pz

Hence proved.

Which expressions are equivalent to -3(2+7) A: -6+21 or B:-21+6​
Neporo4naja [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

None

<u>Explanation:</u>

-6+21 = 15

-21+6​ = -15

Hence there is no equivalence

The four digit numeral 3AA1 is divisible by 9. What digit does A represent
dexar [7]

Answer:

A = 2, the number is 3221

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the number to be divisible by 9, the sum of it's digit has to be divisible by 9.

In our case, 4+A+A+1= 9k where k is an integer. the easiest way happens when k=1

5+2A= 9 \rightarrow 2A=4 \rightarrow A = 2

Higher values of k will likely most work (with k=2 you get A to be a non-integer, which can't work since it's the digit of a number, and with higher values of K you're not getting a number in base 10.
