Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the mean number of coins for the girls is shown below:

Since there are 24 boys and 16 girls so the total children is 40

So the number of coins for all children is

= 40 × 11

= 440

And, the number of coins for all boys is

= 9 × 24

= 216

Now the mean is

= (440 - 216) ÷ 16 girls

= 14

A particular chemistry book costs $6 less than a particular physics book, while two such chemistry books and three such physics
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the Physics book costs $x

The Chemistry book will cost $x - $6

Two such Chemistry books will cost;

2($x - $6) = $(2x - 12)

Three such Physics books cost $3x

$(2x - 12) + $3x = $123

$5x - $12 = $123

$5x = $111

x = $22\frac{1}{5}

So the Physics book costs;  $22\frac{1}{5}

and the Chemistry book costs  $22\frac{1}{5} - 6 =  $16\frac{1}{5}

A closed box has a square base with side length feet and height feet given that the volume of the box is 34 ft.³ express the sur
Deffense [45]

Answer:

\dfrac{2s^3+136}{s}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side length of the square base =s feet

Let the height of the box = h

Given that the volume of the box = 34$ ft^3

Volume of the box =s^2h

Then:

s^2h=34$ ft^3\\$Divide both sides by s^2\\h=\dfrac{34}{s^2}

Surface Area of a Rectangular Prism =2(lb+bh+lh)

Since we have a square base, l=b=s feet

Therefore:

Surface Area of our closed box= 2(s^2+sh+sh)

S$urface Area= 2s^2+4sh\\Recall: h=\dfrac{34}{s^2}\\$Surface Area= 2s^2+4s\left(\dfrac{34}{s^2}\right)\\=2s^2+\dfrac{136}{s}\\$Surface Area in terms of length only=\dfrac{2s^3+136}{s}

17.5 how to make this into a fraction
BARSIC [14]
Take the .5 of the 17.5 and convert it to a fractin.
we know .5 is equal to 50% or 1/2 

now we have a mixed number  17 \frac{1}{2}

in order to convert it into an improper fraction you need to multiply the whole number by the denominator and then add the numerator all while keeping the denominator constant. 

W \frac{N}{D} =  \frac{(W*D)+N}{D}

so 17 \frac{1}{2}= \frac{(17*2)+1}{2}= \frac{35}{2}

The wading pool shown is a trapezoidal prism with a total volume of 286 cubic feet. What is the missing dimension? First base: 8
harkovskaia [24]
To find the missing dimension you will use the formula for finding the volume of a prism and solve for the missing dimension.  In this case 2ft is how deep the pool is and you will solve for the width of the pool.

V = Bh, where B is the area of the base.  In this case, use the area of a trapezoid formula.

286 = 1/2h(8 +13)2
<u>286</u> = <u>21h</u>
21      21
h = 13.6

The width of the wading pool is approximately 13.6 feet.
