Answer:

The number of girls are 90 girls

The number of boys are 125 boys

The number of adults are 20 adults

There are 90 girls, 125 boys and 20 adults at the camp

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people is given as 235 people

The number of boys = 35 + The number of girls

The number of adults = The number of girls - 70

Let the total number of girls = G

Therefore, we have;

The number of boys = 35 + G

The number of adults = G - 70

The total number of persons = The number of boys + The number of adults  +  The number of girls

Therefore;

235 = The number of boys + The number of adults  +  The number of girls

Which gives;

235 = 35 + G + G - 70 + G = 3·G - 35

235 = 3·G - 35

3·G - 35 = 235

3·G = 235 + 35  = 270

G = 270/3 = 90

The number of girls = 90

The number of boys = 35 + The number of girls = 35 + 90 = 125

The number of boys =  125

The number of adults = The number of girls - 70 = 90 - 70 = 20

The number of adults = 20.

The circle is inscribed in Triangle AEC. Which are congruent line segments
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

E-F and E-D

C-B and C-D

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle and triangle are as shown.  The options are:

  • A-B and C-B
  • E-F and E-D
  • E-D and C-D
  • A-F and E-F
  • C-B and C-D

By drawing radius lines from the center of the circle to the tangent points B, D, and F, we can divide the triangle into 3 kites.  Therefore, only segments that are legs of the same kite are congruent.  So the answer must be E-F and E-D, and C-B and C-D.
