As the question say this problem is a practice of the law of cosines!
The law of cosine: c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab*cos*c for any side a, b and c
The law can also be written as c=sqrt(a^2+b^2-2abcosc)
Now use this formula!(note cos 100 degrees is about 0.8623)
c=sqrt(15^2+16^2-2*15*16*cos100)
solving this we can MN is about 23.75
Round this to the nearest tenths now!
We get 23.8!
Thus the answer is D
The answer to that equation is 4
You do 244 divide by sixty and your answer is 4.06

There are 16 differents possibilities.
In 11 of them have at least 2 boys
So probability is 11/16
