Answer:

Ratio = 11:9

Boys = 440

Girls = 360

Explanation:

Given that, in a school,

Total number of students = 800

Also,

Percent of boys = 55%

Therefore, number of boys = 55% of 800

No. of boys = 55/100 x 800

No. of boys = 55 x 8 =

No. of boys = 440

Therefore, we will get,

No. of girls = (800-440)

No. of girls = 360

Therefore, we will get,

Ratio of boys to girls = 440/360

Ratio = (40*11)/(40x9)

Ratio = 11/9

Hence, the ratio of boys to girls is 11:9 and number of boys and girls is 440 and 360 respectively.

Question 1
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Mortality rate is 0.5 per 1000 habitant

the number of deaths have increased (from 210 to 250)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

Mortality rate is the number of deaths in a specific population,usually expressed in units of deaths per 1,000 individuals per year

Mortality\ rate\ (S)= \frac{(D)}{(P)} *10^{n} \\\\\\\\

where

S=Mortality rate

D=deaths

P= population

n= is a conversion form ,such as multiplying by  10^{3}=1000, to  get mortality rate per 1,000 individuals( we will use n=3)

step 1

asign

S=unknown

D=250

P=500000

n=3, (for each  1000 people)

step 2

Replace

S=\frac{250}{500000}*1000\\S=\ 0.5\ per\ 1000

Mortality rate is 0.5 per 1000 habitant

step 3

what if S=0.42

S=0.42(assuming it is 0.42 per 1000,n=3)

D=unknown

P=500000

(S)= \frac{(D)}{(P)} *10^{n}\\\\isolatin D\\\\S*P=D*10^{n}\\ D=\frac{S*P}{10^{n} } \\\\and\ replacing\\\\D=\frac{(0.42)*(500000)}{10^{3} }\\\\ Deaths=210\\

the number of deaths have increased (from 210 to 250)

Have a great day

rewona [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3=10/15 (divide 15 by 3 to get 5, then multiply both numerator and denominator by 5 to set equivalent)

3/5=9/15

10/15 is greater than 9/15, so during the 1st week there were more boy campers
