Answer:

350 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

So,

The secret to solving problems with ratios is to find the value of one unit.

5:7 = 12 units total

To find one unit, divide the total number of students by the total number of units.

600/12 = a

Simplify

50/1 = a

50 = a

The value of each unit is 50.

Now, multiply the units by the numbers in the ratio.

50(5) = b

250 = boys

50(7) = x

350 = x

There are 350 girls.

Find the value of x. Round <br> the nearest tenth.
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

x = 21.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the law of sins

sin 42       sin x

--------- = ----------

22              12

12 sin 42 = 22 sin x

12 sin 42 /22 = sin x

Taking the inverse sin of each side

sin^-1(12/22 sin 42) = sin^-1(sin x)

21.40637223 =x

To the nearest tenth

x = 21.4
