Final answer:
The probability of selecting a girl to represent the class on the student council, from a class of 12 boys and 14 girls, is 7/13 or approximately 53.85%.
Explanation:
This question demands basic understanding of probability
The question relates to determining the probability that a student selected at random to represent a class at student council is a girl. Given there are 12 boys and 14 girls in the class, the total number of students is 12 + 14 = 26. The probability of selecting a girl is therefore the number of girls divided by the total number of students, which is 14/26. Simplified, this probability is 7/13, which can be approximated to 0.5385 or 53.85%.
Therefore, as per the above explaination, the correct answer is 53.85%
The ratio of boys to girls at a winter dance is 5 to 6. If there are 90 girls,how many boys are at the dance?
Answer: 75 boys
Step-by-step explanation: Our first step in this problem is to write down the unit ratio that is involved. In this case, it's boys/girls.
Next, we set up our proportion.
We know that there are 5 boys for every 6 girls.
So we have 5/6 and we're asked how many boys are at the dance if 90 girls are at the dance.
So we have [tex]\frac{5}{6} = \frac{x}{90}[/tex].
Notice that the 99 girls must go on the bottom of the second ratio because our unit ratio tells us that we put boys/girls.
Solving from here, we use the means-extremes property.
The product of the extremes,
(90)(5) equals the product of the means, (6)(x).
So we have (90)(5) or 450 equals (6)(x) or 6x.
So we have 450 = 6x and dividing both sides by 6, 75 = x.
So 75 boys are at the winter dance.
The area of michi's garden is 32 square feet. The garden is 8 feet long. How wide is Michi's garden
Answer:
4 feet wide
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the garden = 32 square feet
Length = 8 feet
Width = ?
The mimchi garden is rectangular in shape.
Area of a rectangle = L x W
32 = 8 x W
Divide both sides by 8
32/8 = 8/8 x W
4 = w
W = 4 feet wide
Answer:
4 ft.

Answer: 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve this equation for x in terms of y and z
7x - 5y - 2z = 4
What is he value of x when y = 5 and z = 3
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Set y to 5 and z to 3
7x - 5(5) - 2(3) = 4
7x - 25 - 6 = 4
7x - 31 = 4
Step 2: Add 31 to both sides
7x - 31 + 31 = 4 + 31
7x = 35
Step 3: Divide both sides by 7
7x / 7 = 35 / 7
x = 5
Answer: x = 5

find the value of x in the isosceles triangle shown
Answer:
x = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The line from the vertex to the base is a perpendicular bisector and divides the triangle into 2 right triangles.
Consider the right triangle on the left with base 2
Using Pythagoras' identity
The square on the hypotenuse (x) is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
x² = 2² + 3² = 4 + 9 = 13 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]
Answer:

1. Moesha needs $79 for a class trip. 59
She already has $22 and she can earn
the rest by babysitting for 8 hours.
If h represents her hourly earnings,
which of the following equations can
be solved to find Moesha's hourly
earnings? Select all that apply.
Answer: 79=8h +22
Step-by-step explanation: 79 total needed 8h equals 8 times her hourly earning plus 22 what she already haves should equal 79.
Final answer:
To find Moesha's hourly earnings for babysitting, we subtract the amount she already has ($22) from the total needed ($79) to calculate the amount she needs to earn ($57), and divide this by the number of hours she will babysit (8). This gives us the equation 8h = $57, which we solve by dividing both sides by 8, leading us to find that Moesha earns $7.125 per hour.
Explanation:
Moesha needs $79 for a class trip and already has $22. She will earn the remaining amount by babysitting for 8 hours. If we use h to represent Moesha's hourly earnings, we need to set up an equation that when solved, will find her hourly earnings. The total amount Moesha needs to earn from babysitting is $79 - $22, which equals $57. Since she is babysitting for 8 hours, we divide the total amount she needs to earn by the number of hours she will work: $57 ÷ 8 hours.
Putting this into an equation, we come up with 8h = $57. To find her hourly earnings, h, we divide both sides of the equation by 8, giving us h = $7.125 per hour. Therefore, Moesha will earn $7.125 for each hour of babysitting she does.

help fast plz.
Answer:
A number line going from 50 to 60. A solid circle is at 54. Everything to the right of the circle is shaded.
Step-by-step explanation:
we have the inequality
[tex]11\leq y-43[/tex]
solve for y
Adds 43 both sides
[tex]11+43\leq y[/tex]
[tex]54\leq y[/tex]
Rewrite
[tex]y\geq 54[/tex]
In a number line the solution is the shaded area at right of y=54 (closed circle)
therefore
A number line going from 50 to 60. A solid circle is at 54. Everything to the right of the circle is shaded.

A fort had provisions for 175 men for 70 days. After 10 days, 25 men left the fort. How long will the provision last ?
Answer:
70 days
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A fort had provisions for 175 men for 70 days.
After 10 days a fort had provisions for 175 men for (70-10)=60 days
but
25 men left the fort
so
The remaining men are 175-25=150 men
Let
x ----> how long the provision will last
we know that
The equation that represent this problem is an inverse variation
[tex]175(60)=150(x)[/tex]
as the number of men decreases the number of days increases
solve for x
[tex]x=175(60)/150=70\ days[/tex]
using proportion
[tex]\frac{175}{60}=\frac{150}{x}\\\\x=150(60)/175\\\\x=70\ days[/tex]

Line a is parallel tо lіnе b, m<6=85, and m<3= 2х. Find m<1.
105
85
90
95
The measure of ∠1 is 95°
Solution:
Given a || b.
m∠6 = 85° and m∠3 = 2x°
∠6 and ∠3 are co-interior angles.
Co-interior angles add up to 180°.
⇒ m∠6 + m∠3 = 180°
⇒ 85° + 2x° = 180°
Subtract 85° from both sides.
⇒ 2x° = 95°
⇒ m∠3 = 95°
If two lines cut each other, then vertically opposite angles are congruent.
⇒ m∠1 = m∠3
⇒ m∠1 = 95°
Hence the measure of ∠1 is 95°.

How do I solve for what is sin A for the triangle shown
Option a:
sin A for the triangle is [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex].
Solution:
The given triangle is a right triangle.
The adjacent side to angle A is AC.
The opposite side to angle A is BC.
Hypotenuse is AB.
AC = 8, BC = 6 and AB = 10.
Using trigonometric ratio formulas,
[tex]$\sin \theta=\frac{\text { Opposite side }}{\text { Hypotenuse }}[/tex]
[tex]$\sin A=\frac{BC}{AB}[/tex]
[tex]$\sin A=\frac{6}{10}[/tex]
Divide both numerator and denominator by 2, we get
[tex]$\sin A=\frac{6\div2}{10\div 2}[/tex]
[tex]$\sin A=\frac{3}{5}[/tex]
Hence sin A for the triangle is [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex].
Option a is the correct answer.

Can someone please solve this.
Oh and please either throughly explain and/or attach a photo so that I can understand your thinking.
PLEASE & THANK YOU
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
A
Given
(x² + 3)² + 21 = 10x² + 30 ← factor out 10 from each term on the right side
(x² + 3)² + 21 = 10(x² + 3) ← subtract 10(x² + 3) from both sides
(x² + 3)² - 10(x² + 3) + 21 = 0
Substituting u = x² + 3 into the equation gives
u² - 10u + 21 = 0 → D
---------------------------------------------
B
Using u² - 10u + 21 = 0 to solve the equation
Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 21) which sum to give the coefficient of the u- term (- 10)
The factors are - 3 and - 7, since
- 3 × - 7 = 21 and - 3 - 7 = - 10, thus
(u - 3)(u - 7) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for u
u - 3 = 0 ⇒ u = 3
u - 7 = 0 ⇒ u = 7
We now have to use the substitution to convert the solutions into terms of x, that is
x² + 3 = 3 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x² = 0 ⇒ x = 0 → D
x² + 3 = 7 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x² = 4 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± [tex]\sqrt{4}[/tex] = ± 2
Thus x = - 2 → C
x = 2 → E
