Answer:

Ratio of girls to STUDENTS is 4 to 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given is that there are  12 boys and 16 girls in the classroom. The question is not about the ratio of girls to boys but about the ratio of girls to STUDENTS. You need to add the amount of girls plus the amount of boys to get the total amount of students.

Girls to Students

16  to 28 (12 +16)

Simplify 16:28 by dividing each number by 4

Answer is 4:7

The unsimplified version is 12:16
you have to find the highest common factor in them
in this case it would be 4
divide both numbers by 4 
3:4

hope this helps you

A bicyclist travels at a constant speed of 12 miles per hour for a total of 45 minutes. (Use set notation for the domain and ran
Mamont248 [21]

A bicyclist travels at a constant speed of 12 miles per hour for a total of 45 minutes.

We know the formula , Distance = speed * time

Speed is constant and it is 12. So it  is linear

The function becomes d = 12t, x is the t is the time and d is the distance

At the starting point, t=0  and distance d=0

End point , t=45 min = 0.75 hours and distance = 12 * 0.75 = 9

So domain (t) is {x|0}

Range (d) is {y|0}

Marge cut 16 pieces of tape for mounting pictures on posterboard each piece of tape is 3/8 inches long how much tape did Marge u
daser333 [38]

Answer:

6 inches of tape

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount of tape that Marge used, you can take the measure of each piece (\frac{3}{8}) and multiply by the total number of pieces cut (16):

\frac{3}{8}*\frac{16}{1}=\frac{48}{8}=6inches

So, Marge used 6 inches of tape altogether.

Triangle KLM represents a section of a park set aside for picnic tables. The picnic area will take up approximately 400 square y
svetoff [14.1K]
Given triangle KLM with two sides given as 45 yd and 20 yd and a 25 degree angle opposite the 20 yd side.

We find the angle made at the opposite of the 45 yd side using the sine rule as follows.
\frac{\sin{A}}{a} =  \frac{\sin{B}}{b}  \\  \frac{\sin{25^o}}{20} = \frac{\sin{B}}{45}  \\ \sin{B}= \frac{45\sin{25^o}}{20} = \frac{19.0178}{20} =0.9509 \\ B=\arcsin{(0.9509)}=71.97^o

Thus, the third angle is given by 180 - 25 - 71.97 = 83.03 degrees.

We also use the sine rule to find the third side of the triangle as follows.
\frac{\sin{A}}{a} = \frac{\sin{C}}{c} \\ \frac{\sin{25^o}}{20} = \frac{\sin{83.03^o}}{c} \\ c= \frac{20\sin{83.03^o}}{\sin{25^o}} = \frac{19.8522}{\sin{25^o}} =46.97 yds

Therefore, amount of fencing needed to surround the perimeter of the picnic area = 45 + 20 + 46.97 = 111.97 ≈ 120 yds
