Answer:

240 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of girls be x.

160:x = 2:3

Multiply right side by 80--> 160:x = 160:240

x=240.

So there are 240 girls.

Answer:

There should be 240 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ultimately, you want 40% of the school to be boys and 60% of the school to be girls which equal to the ratio 2:3.  Divide 160 by 2 to get 80 for the first part of the ratio, then you should multiply that number by 3 to get 240 as the number of girls in that school.

The ratio should be 160:240 when you put the number of boys and girls in this situation.

Find the characteristic polynomial of A. Use x for the variable in your polynomial.You do not need to factor your polynomial. A
Vesna [10]

Answer:  The required characteristic polynomial of the given matrix A is x^3+6x+11x+6=0.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the characteristic polynomial  of the following 3 × 3 matrix A  with unknown variable x :

A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&1\\4&-3&4\\-2&0&-3\end{array}\right].

We know that

for any square matrix M, the characteristic polynomial is given by

|M-xI|=0, where I is an identity matrix of same order as M.

Therefore, the characteristic polynomial of matrix A is

|A-xI|=0\\\\\\\Rightarrow \left|\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&1\\4&-3&4\\-2&0&-3\end{array}\right]-x\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]\right|=0\\\\\\\Rightarrow \left|\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-x&0&1\\4&-3-x&4\\-2&0&-3-x\end{array}\right] \right|=0\\\\\\\Rightarrow -x(3+x)^2+1(0-6-2x)=0\\\\\Rightarrow  (x+3)(-3x-x^2-2)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (x+3)(x^2+3x+2)=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^3+6x+11x+6=0.

Thus, the required characteristic polynomial of the given matrix A is x^3+6x+11x+6=0.

The value of x in the triangle is 9.3

<h3>How to find the side x of a triangle?</h3>

The side x of a triangle can be found as follows:

The triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADE.

Therefore, corresponding sides of similar triangles are in the same ratios.

Hence,

7  / 13 = x / x + 8

cross multiply

7(x + 8) = 13x

7x + 56 = 13x

subtract 7x from both sides of the equation

7x - 7x + 56 = 13x - 7x

56 = 6x

divide both sides by 6

x = 56 / 6

x = 9.33333333333

x = 9.3

It takes about 20 minutes to grade a student’s paper. How long, in hours, does it take to grade papers for a class of 30 people?
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The answer is 600 minutes (10 hours)

Step-by-step explanation:

20 minutes = 1 student.

30 students x 20 = 600 minutes

600mins / 60 (because an hour has 60 mins) = 10 hours.
