Answer:

I bilieve the answer is 20/12, 20 boys, and 12 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

5/3 is the ratio, but the number is bigger than this,

To solve this, what you multiply to one side, also needs to be multiplied to the other, because the ratio must be even. And i multiplied up one more until i got the total of 32(The total number of students).

4*5/4*3=20/12

add these together and you get a total of 32.

Thus there are 20 boys in the class.

I hope that this answer was helpful to you, and anyone else who uses it. Have a good day.

The volume of the cylinder above is 2,314.25, and the radius of the base is 8.9 Find the volume of the cone.

Answer: $771.41\ units^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing figure is attached.

The volume of an oblique cylinders and the volume of a right cylinder can be found with this formula:

$V_{cy}=\pi r^2h$

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height.

The volume of an oblique cone and the volume of a right cone can be found with this formula:

$V_{co}=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height.

According to the information given in the exercise, you know that the volume of the cylinder and also the radius of the cylinder and the cone ,are the following:

$V_{cy}=2,314.25\ units^3\\\\r=8.9\ units$

Therefore, in order to find the volume of the cone, you only need to multiply the volume of the cylinder by $\frac{1}{3}$ .

Then, you get:

$V_{co}=\frac{1}{3}(2,314.25\ units^3)\\\\V_{co}=771.41\ units^3$

aleksklad [387]

The line can be written in the form y=mx+b. Plugging -2 in for m , 1 in for x, and -3 in for y, we get -3=-2*1+b=-2+b. Adding 2 to both sides, we get b=-1 and our equation turns into y=-2x-1 since y and x stay variables. Plugging it into a graphing calculator, we get in (0,b) that b = -1
