Mathematics

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:

16 girls in the class

14 boys in the class

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the ratio of 7:8, I added 7+8.

7+8= 15

30 (the number of students in the class) divided by 15 (the sum of the ratio)

30/15= 2

I then multiplied 8 from the "girls" part of the ratio by 2 (the quotient of 30/15) and got 16. Then I subtracted 16 from 30 and got 14, which s the number of boys in the class.

Hope this helps!

$\bf cot(\theta)=\cfrac{cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}
\qquad csc(\theta)=\cfrac{1}{sin(\theta)}
\\\\\\
sin^2(\theta)+cos^2(\theta)=1\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf \cfrac{cos(\theta )cot(\theta )}{1-sin(\theta )}-1=csc(\theta )\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{cos(\theta )\cdot \frac{cos(\theta )}{sin(\theta )}}{1-sin(\theta )}-1\implies \cfrac{\frac{cos^2(\theta )}{sin(\theta )}}{\frac{1-sin(\theta )}{1}}-1\implies 
\cfrac{cos^2(\theta )}{sin(\theta )}\cdot \cfrac{1}{1-sin(\theta )}-1
\\\\\\
\cfrac{cos^2(\theta )}{sin(\theta )[1-sin(\theta )]}-1\implies 
\cfrac{cos^2(\theta )-1[sin(\theta )[1-sin(\theta )]]}{sin(\theta )[1-sin(\theta )]}$

$\bf \cfrac{cos^2(\theta )-1[sin(\theta )-sin^2(\theta )]}{sin(\theta )[1-sin(\theta )]}\implies \cfrac{cos^2(\theta )-sin(\theta )+sin^2(\theta )}{sin(\theta )[1-sin(\theta )]}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{cos^2(\theta )+sin^2(\theta )-sin(\theta )}{sin(\theta )[1-sin(\theta )]}\implies \cfrac{\underline{1-sin(\theta )}}{sin(\theta )\underline{[1-sin(\theta )]}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{sin(\theta )}\implies csc(\theta )$

In the data set below, what is the range? 9, 4, 9, 2, 8, 2, 1

noname [10]

First put these in order from least to greatest.

1,2,2,4,8,9,9 is the correct order
Range is when we subtract the greatest value of our data set from the smallest so in our case it would be 9-1 which leaves us with our answer that 8 is your range.

Simplify ........ (256y²⁵⁶) ⅛<br>help asap!!!!!

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

2y^32

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 2^8 = 256, the eighth root of 256 is 2.

Next, we find the power of y by multiplying 256 and 1/8: result is 32.

Complete answer: 2y^32
