Answer:

25% of the students are girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Key skills needed: Ratios, Percents, Fractions</u>

1) There are 6 girls and 18 boys in the class --> This means that there are 6+18 or 24 people in the class total.

2) 6 of the 24 people are girls. So as a fraction --> 6/24 is the number of girls over the total number of people.

3) This can be simplified as 1/4 --> Divide 1 by 4 --> And this is 0.25

4) Multiply this by a 100 to get a percent form --> 25%

<em>Hope you understood and have a nice day!! :D</em>

If f(x) varies directly with x and f(x) = 48 when x = 8 find the value of f(x) when x = 2
const2013 [10]
Here, f(x) = kx

k = f(x)/x
k = 48/8
k = 6

So, when x = 2, 
f(x) = 6 * 2
z = 12

In short, Your Answer would be: 12

Hope this helps!

A farmer has 90 feet of fence with which to make a corral. If he arranges it into a rectangle that is twice as long as it is wid
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

W = 15 ft. and L = 30 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 90 ft.

Twice as long as it is wide: L=2W

P = 2(L + W) = 2(2W + W) = 6W

90 = 6W

W = 15 ft. and L = 30 ft.

Anyone, please help me!!!​
lianna [129]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hint:  1- 2sin²x = Cos 2x

LHS = 1 - 2Sin² (π/4 - Ф/2)

        =  Cos 2 *(π/4 - Ф/2)

        = Cos 2*π/4 - 2*Ф/2

         = Cos π/2 - Ф

         = Sin Ф =  RHS

How do you round 25.691 to the greatest place explain
spayn [35]

In order to round 25.691 to the greatest place or the nearest whole number, first start at the last digit behind the decimal, in the case, being the 1. When it comes to things like this, if the digit is 4&under meaning its the number 4,3,2,1 or 0. If it is 5&up, that means it could be 5-9, making the digit go up (but if its 2, then the digit just goes away, you wont have to worry about that one specific number).

Next step is to round the 9 which makes the 6 go up one digit (meaning it turns into a 7). Now, when you round the seven, it will make the whole number go up one digit, but if you want to round that as well, to start, it's first rounding equaled up to 26. If you're rounding it to a whole tens number, it would be 30. I hope that this helps you understand this subject or topic much better! :3
