PLEASE GIVE AN EXPLANATION!! In your grade of 380 students, 70% play a musical instrument. 60% of the boys play a musical instru

Liula [17]

Answer:

270 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 380

Play musical instrument = 70%

Boys who play musical instrument = 60%

Number of girls who play musical instrument = 200

How many girls are in the class?

Number of play musical instrument = 70% of 380

(0.7 * 380) = 266

Since number of girls who play musical instrument = 200

Then number of boys who play = (266 - 200) = 66

Hence, 66 boys is equivalent 60% of the boy's population

Let population of boys = b

0.6b = 66

b = 110

Number of girls in class :

Number of boys + number of girls

110 + number of girls = 380

Number of girls = 380 - 110

Number of girls = 270

N(17+x)=34x−r<br> I need to solve for x

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The value of x is, $x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}$

Explanation:

Given: $N(17+x)=34x-r$

Distributive Property states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately.

If $a\cdot(b+c) =a\cdot b + a\cdot c$

Now, using distributive property on left hand side of the given expression as:

$N\cdot 17+N\cdot x = 34x-r$ or $17N+Nx = 34x-r$

Addition Property of equality state that we add the same number from both sides of an equation.

Add r to both sides of an equation:

$17N+Nx+r=34x-r+r$

Simplify:

$17N+Nx+r=34x$

Subtraction Property of equality state that we subtract the same number from both sides of an equation.

Subtract Nx from both sides of an equation;

$17N+Nx+r-Nx=34x-Nx$

Simplify:

$17N+r=34x-Nx$

or

$17N+r=x(34-N)$

Division Property of equality states that we divide the same number from both sides of an equation.

Divide by (34-N) to both sides of an equation;

$\frac{17N+r}{34-N}= \frac{x(34-N)}{34-N}$

On Simplify:

$x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}$

A semicircular flower bed has a diameter of 3 metres. What is the area of the flower bed?

Yuri [45]

The area of circle is

$A_{\text{circle}}=\pi r^2.$

Then the area of semicircular region is

$A_{\text{semicircular region}}=\dfrac{1}{2} \pi r^2.$

If r=3 m, you have

$A_{\text{semicircular region}}=\dfrac{1}{2} \pi \cdot 3^2=\dfrac{9\pi}{2}=4.5\pi \approx 14.13$ sq. m.

Answer: $A_{\text{semicircular region}}=4.5\pi \approx 14.13$ sq. m.

Evaluate the expression. P(9, 3) · P(5, 4)

boyakko [2]

Answer:

$P(9,3) *P(5,4)$

And if we use the permutation formula given by:

$nPx = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}$

And replacing we got:

$\frac{9!}{6!} \frac{5!}{4!}= 504*5 = 2520$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we want to find the following expressionÑ

$P(9,3) *P(5,4)$

And if we use the permutation formula given by:

$nPx = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}$

And replacing we got:

$\frac{9!}{6!} \frac{5!}{4!}= 504*5 = 2520$
