Answer:

The girls are 48 in number

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states that the ratio of boys to girls is 7 : 12, there are 76 children, we are to find the number of girls.

To find the number of girls, we are to follow the steps below;

Boys  :   Girls

 7       :   12

We take the ration number of girl which is 12 over the total ratio number then we multiply by 76.

The total ratio number = 7 + 12 = 19

That is;

 Number of girls = \frac{12}{19}  ×    76

                             =\frac{912}{19}

                             

                             =48

Therefore there are 48 number of girls

12 girls out of 19, how many out of 76

12 - x
19 - 76

Cross product:

19x= 1152
/19. /19
x= ~61

There are (around) 61 girls

Copy the expressions which are polynomials. Give reasons why the remaining are
kupik [55]

Answer: a and c are polynomials, b is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial p(x) is written as:

p(x) = aₙ*xⁿ + ... + a₂*x² + a₁*x¹ + a₀*x⁰

where x is the variable, and the numbers aₙ, aₙ₋₁, ..., a₁, a₀ are the coefficients of the polynomial, such that aₙ is the leading coefficient, and the value of n (always a natural number) is the degree of the polynomial.

Notice that the powers need to be always natural numbers.

Now, let's analyze the options:

a) 3*x - 2

We can rewrite this as:

3*x¹ - 2*x⁰

Then this is a polynomial.

b) p² + 1/p    (in this case the variable is p)

the second term can be written as:

1/p = p⁻¹

Then we have a term with a negative power of p, this means that this is not a polynomial.

c) 3*y² - 2*y/3 + 1

Same as in the first case, we can rewrite this as:

3*y² - (2/3)*y¹ + 1*y⁰

This is a polynomial.

Urgent!! Will mark brainliest!!
anastassius [24]

Answer:

1) tanФ = 0.8392 ⇒ 2nd answer

2) cosФ = 20/29 ⇒ 3rd answer

3) cosФ = -√2/2 , cotФ = -1 ⇒ first answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* At first check the quadrant of the angle

∵ 180° < Ф < 270°

∴ Ф lies on the third quadrant

* Remember in the 3rd quadrant tanФ and cotФ only positive

∵ sinФ ≅ -0.7660

∵ tan²Ф = sec²Ф - 1

∵ secФ = 1/sinФ

∵ secФ = 1/-0.7660

∴ sec²Ф = (1/-0.7660)²

* Substitute this value in the equation

∴ tan²Ф = (1/-0.7660)² - 1 = 0.70428594 ⇒ take √ for both sides

∴ tanФ ≅ ± 0.8392

∵ Ф lies on the 3rd quadrant

∴ tanФ = 0.8392

* At first check the quadrant of the angle

∵ 0° < Ф < 90°

∴ Ф lies on the first quadrant

* Remember in the 1st quadrant all are positive

∵ sinФ = 21/29

∵ sin²Ф + cos²Ф = 1

∴ (21/29)² + cos²Ф = 1 ⇒ subtract (21/29)² from both sides

∴ cos²Ф = 1 - (21/29)² = 400/841 ⇒ take √ in both sides

∴ cosФ = ± 20/29

* Because Ф lies in the 1st quadrant

∴ cosФ = 20/29

* Remember that when the point is at the terminal side of angle Ф

∴ Its x-coordinate is cosФ

∴ Its y-coordinate is sinФ

* The point is (-√2/2 , √2/2)

∵ x-coordinate is negative ad y-coordinate is positive

∴ the point is on the 2nd quadrant

∴ 90° < Ф < 180°

∴ The values of sinФ and cscФ only positive

* From previous we know that:

∴ cosФ = -√2/2

∴ sinФ = √2/2

∵ cotФ = cosФ/sinФ

∴ cotФ = -√2/2 ÷ √2/2 = -√2/2 × 2/√2 = -√2/√2 = -1

* cosФ = -√2/2 , cotФ = -1

Two adjacent angles of a rhombus as in the ratio 2:3. Eind all the a angles of the rombus​
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Let the adjacent angles of the rhombus be 2x and 3x. We know that the sum of the measures of the adjacent angles is equal to 180°. AD = DC = 3 × 36° = 108°. Hence , the angles of the rhombus are 72° , 108° , 72° and 108°.
