Answer:

The number of boys last year will be 50 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

330 members with 240 adults

The number of children will be;

330-240 = 90

2/3 of 90 are boys

= 2/3 * 90 = 60 boys

Number of girls is 90-60 = 30

Ratio of adults:boys:girls

= 240:60:30

divide through by 30

= 8:2:1

b) A year ago, there were 200 adults but the ratio still remains same

Let the number of girls be x, the number of boys will be 2x

Thus, total number is 200 + x + 2x = 200 + 3x

Total ratio is 8 + 2 + 1 = 11

mathematically;

8/11 * (200 + 3x) = 200

8(200 + 3x) = 11(200)

1600 + 24x = 2200

24x = 2200-1600

24x = 600

x = 600/24

x = 25

So the number of boys will be 25 * 2 = 50

Yes it is right cuz 16 is the double of 8 and even the price if doubled up so the price is right

for 8

Apply the formula

2\sqrt{\frac{Area}{\pi } }

2\sqrt{\frac{154}{\pi } }

2\sqrt{49.02}

Find the multiplicative inverse of 3 − 2i. Verify that your solution is corect by confirming that the product of
leonid [27]

Answer:

\frac{3}{13} + \frac{2i}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplicative inverse of a complex number y  is the complex number z such that (y)(z) = 1

So for this problem we need to find a number z such that

(3 - 2i) ( z ) = 1

If we take z = \frac{1}{3-2i}

We have that

(3- 2i)\frac{1}{3-2i} = 1 would be the multiplicative inverse of 3 - 2i

But remember that 2i = √-2 so we can rationalize the denominator of this complex number

\frac{1}{3-2i } (\frac{3+2i}{3+2i } )=\frac{3+2i}{9-(4i^{2} )} =\frac{3+2i}{9-4(-1)} =\frac{3+2i}{13}

Thus, the multiplicative inverse would be \frac{3}{13} + \frac{2i}{13}

The problem asks us to verify this by multiplying both numbers to see that the answer is 1:

Let's multiplicate this number by 3 - 2i to confirm:

(3-2i)(\frac{3+2i}{13}) = \frac{9-4i^{2} }{13}  =\frac{9-4(-1)}{13}= \frac{9+4}{13} = \frac{13}{13}= 1

Thus, the number we found is indeed the multiplicative inverse of  3 - 2i

Solve for s. s+24=90
-Dominant- [34]
S + 24 = 90

This is a one-step problem. so, all you have to do is subtract 24 on both sides:

s + 24 - 24 = 90 - 24

s = 66

Check your work:

66 + 24 = 90

90 = 90

Hope this helps!!
