Answer:

A: 19:26 B:7:8 C:26:45

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question A</u>

First to find the ratio between the boys and girls you would add all of the different groups with boys and girls. This would be done by,

<u>Boys</u>

9+10=19

<u>Girls</u>

12+14=26

Now that you have the total number of boys and girls you make this ratio,

19:26

That is the final answer

<u>Question B</u>

For this it is very similar to the boys to girls ratio. You still add the total on each side and then form a ratio. From before you would start by adding both of the different sides which would be done by,

<u>Fifth Graders</u>

12+9=21

<u>Sixth Graders</u>

14+10=24

Now that you have the total number of both of the different grades you make this ratio,

21:24

You can simplify this by finding the lowest common factor which would be

7:8

<u>Question C</u>

To answer this it is very similar to the first two but instead you will find one group and all of the groups to form the ratio. Now you need to add all of the people in each of the groups.

<u>Girls</u>

12+14=26

<u>All</u>

12+9+14+10=45

Now with the total number of both you will form a ratio

26:45

This is your final answer because you cant simplify this any further

What is the value of y?
VikaD [51]

The answer is 57 because using remote angles theorem you get the largest angle equals to 66 degrees but you are not done yet you have to subtract 66 from 180 because of sum of angles in a triangle so you get 114 degrees and since you have an isosceles triangle you have to divide by two to get y so y = 57 degrees

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A = \frac{h_b b}{2}

38.4 = \frac{12.8_b b}{2}

b = 2\frac{A}{h_b}

b = 2\frac{38.4}{12.8} = 6

Solve for x: 2 over 3 equals 8 over quantity x plus 6
SashulF [63]

Answer:

x = 40/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 = (8/x) + 6

-6                -6

2/3 - 6 = -16/3

-16/3 = 8/x

*x          *x

(-16/3)x = 8

+16/3     +16/3

x = 40/3
