There are 8 girls

the number of girls should be smaller than the number of boys since the ratio is 2:3

you can do it multiple ways but here’s my work :)

Answer:

18 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

2g = 3b

b = 12

g = girls

b = boys

2g = 3*12

2g = 36

g = 36/2

g = 18

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The area of this rectangle is 72x^5

Step-by-step explanation:

A = l ∙ w

Let, l = length

Let, w = width

Step 1: Substitute the length and width for the two given values

    1. A = (12x³)(6x²)

Step 2: Multiply

    1. A = 72x^5

Explain how you found the equation that represents aunt andreas decorating plans from the table
Lyrx [107]

Answer: The number of balloons varies directly with the number of tables. The two variables are directly proportional. The relationship of balloons to tables is the ratio 5:1, where 5 is the constant of variation. Use the equation y = kx, where k is the constant of variation resulting in the equation y = 5x.

Hope i helped

A parcel delivery service will deliver a package only if the length plus girth (distance around) does not exceed 84 in. What are
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

a) \frac{28}{\pi} in

b) 28 in

c) 784 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be 'L'

and the radius be 'r'

Thus, according to the question

L + 2πr = 84 in

L = 84 - 2πr   ............(1)

Volume of the cylinder, V = πr²L

substituting the value of L from 1, we get

V =  πr²(84 - 2πr)

or

V = 84πr² - 2π²r³

for points of maxima, differentiating the above equation and equating it to zero

\frac{dV}{dr}=\frac{d(84\pi r^2-2\pi^2 r^3))}{dr}

or

2(84)πr - 3(2)π²r² = 0

or

2πr(84 - 3πr) = 0

or

r = 0    and    84 - 3πr = 0

or

⇒ 3πr = 84

or

⇒ r = \frac{28}{\pi} in

since, the radius cannot be zero therefore, r = 0 is neglected

Therefore,

a) The radius of the largest cylindrical package = \frac{28}{\pi} in

b) from  (2)

L = 84 - 2πr

or

⇒ L = 84 - 2\pi\times\frac{28}{\pi}

or

⇒ L = 84 - 56 = 28 in

The length of the largest cylindrical package = 28 in

c ) The volume of the largest cylindrical package ,V = πr²L

= \pi\times\frac{28}{\pi}\times28

= 784 in²
