Some girls in a Girl Scout troop are pairing up with some boys in a Boy Scout troop to practice square dancing. Two-thirds of th

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Fraction of the scouts are square dancing is $\frac{19}{30}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Each pair is one Girl Scout and one Boy Scout.

So, to the final fraction ( of the pairs) we are going to get 1/2 from the fraction of girls and 1/2 from the fraction of boys.

Girls= $\frac{2}{3} *\frac{1}{2} =\frac{2}{6}$

Boys= $\frac{3}{5} *\frac{1}{2} =\frac{3}{10}$

To get the fraction of the scouts that are square dancing, we have to add the fraction of girls , with the fraction of boys.

= $\frac{2}{6} +\frac{3}{10}$

= $\frac{(2*10) +(6*3)}{6*10} =\\ \frac{20+18}{60}$

= $\frac{38}{60}$

= $\frac{19}{30}$

This means that from 30 scouts , 19 are dancing.

Solve for r <br><br> 5-2(1-6r)=24

sammy [17]

You will get r= 21/12 but you have to simplify to get R=7/4 or R=1.75

ABC is a right angled triangle right angled at B . A circle with centre O inscribed in the triangle . AB=6CM BC=8CM . Find the r

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Radius = 2 cm.

Step by step explanation:

By the Pythagoras theorem the third side of the triangle

= sqrt (6^2 + 8^2)cm = sqrt100 = 10cm.

The formula for the radius of the circle is

r = sqrt [ (s - a)(s-b)(s-c)/ s ] where a,b,c are side lengths and s = the semi perimeter.

Here s = ( 6+8+10) / 2 = 12

So the radius r

= sqrt [ (12-6)(12-8)(12-10)/ 12 ]

= sqrt 4

= 2 (answer).
