Width : Length

2 : 3

Perimeter = 2* width + 2*length

Ratio becomes:

Width : Length

4 : 6

Total units = 4 + 6 = 10

Perimeter = 40

Twenty-one boys and eight girls go on a camping trip. In how many ways can a group of six be selected to gather firewood, given
lorasvet [3.4K]
(a)  there are 8C2  = 28 ways of picking 2 girls from 8
And there are  21C4  =  5985 ways of picking 4 boys

Required number of ways for 2g / 4b  = 28 * 5985 =  167,580 

(b) at least 2 girls means  combinations of 2g/4b , 3g,3b , 4g/2b , 5g 1b or 
6 girls.

2g/4b  = 167,580 ways
3g/3b =  8C3 * 21C3 =  56 * 1330 = 74,480
4g/2b =  8C4* 21C2  =   70 * 210 = 14,700 
5g 1b = 8C5* 21 =  56*21 = 1176
6 girls  = 8C6 = 28

adding these up we get the answer to (b) which is  257,964

At top speed a cheetah can travel 114 km/hour . HOW MANY METERS CAN IT TRAVEL PER SECOND PLEASE HELP ME and don't forget to expl
densk [106]

Hey there! :) So first of all, I got 31.67 per second. The way I got my answer is first, I knew that 1 KM is 1000 Meters. So now, I multiplied 114 x 1000 which equals 114,000 Meters. Then, I figured out that 1 Hour has 3600 Seconds. Then I did 114,000 ÷ 3,600 and got 31.67 Seconds. And that is how I got the answer!

Hope it helps and it's the right answer & it's understandable! :D

Anyone know how to answer this? Help if u do please!
Inga [223]
A- It will be smaller, because we're finding a part of a number, and it's no more than 100 percent.
B- It would be greater. It's more than 100 percent, which accounts for the whole value, and goes even more.
Hope this helps!

Right triangle FHG is shown. The sine of angle F is 0.53. What is the cosine of Angle h ?
g100num [7]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that FGH is a right triangle. The sine of angle F is 0.53.

We need to determine the cosine of angle H.

<u>Cosine of angle H:</u>

Given that the sine of angle F is 0.53

This can be written as,

sin F=0.53

Applying the trigonometric ratio, we have;

\frac{HG}{FH}=0.53 ----- (1)

Now, we shall determine the value of cosine of angle H.

Let us apply the trigonometric ratio cos \ \theta=\frac{adj}{hyp}, we get;

cos \ H=\frac{HG}{FH} ----- (2)

Substituting the value from equation (1) in equation (2), we get;

cos \ H=0.53

Thus, the cosine of angle H is 0.53
