\huge{ \bf{ \underline{ \underline{ \pink{Solution:}}}}}

Let,

  • Number of boys be 3x
  • Number of girls be 2x
  • Then, Total number of students = 3x + 2x = 5x

It is given that,

➙ Number of girls = 420

Then,

➙ 2x = 420

➙ x = 420/2 = 210

No. of boys = 3x = 630

Then,

➙ Number of students = 5x

➙ Number of students = 5(210)

➙ Number of students = 1050

Need help with some inverse trigonometric expressions, rounded to the nearest degree.

A Google or Bing search box can be your friend, if you don't have a calculator with inverse trig functions. Most calculators that have trig functions also have the inverse functions, usually after a 2nd or "shift" key. Often, there is a mode setting for degrees or radians.

arcsin(0.33) ≈ 19°
arccos(0.47) ≈ 62°
arctan(1.21) ≈ 50°
arcsin(0.82) ≈ 55°

Ratio 5:9 in fraction
irina [24]
There are many ways you can write a ratio. They're all basically the same thing, though. 5:9, 5 to 9, and 5/9 (which is a fraction) are all just different ways to write ratios.

What is the slope of this line?<br><br> A. -1/2<br> B. 1/2<br> C. -2<br> D. 2
SVEN [57.7K]

We can find the slope of this line by using the slope formula:

\frac{y.2 - y.1}{x.2 - x.1} = m

We'll use the points (-6, 0) and (0, -3)

(-3 - 0) / (0 + 6) = -3/6 = -0.5

The slope of the line is A, -1/2
