How many students have dark hair?
How many students have red hair?

Respuesta :

Answer:

(a)24

(b)8

(c)4

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of STudents in the Class = 36

Angle representing Students with Red Hair =40 degrees

Angle representing Students with Blonde Hair =240 degrees

Therefore:

(a)Number of Students with Blonde Hair

[tex]=\dfrac{240^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 36\\\\ =24$ students[/tex]

(b)Number of Students with Dark Hair

Angle representing students with dark hair = 360-(240+40)=80 degrees

Therefore:

Number of Students with Dark Hair

[tex]=\dfrac{80^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 36\\\\ =8$ students[/tex]

(c)Number of Students with Blonde Hair

[tex]=\dfrac{40^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 36\\\\ =4$ students[/tex]

There are 8 students that have blond hair

There are 24 students that have dark hair

There are 4 students that have red hair

Please find attached the pie chart used in answering this question

A pie chart is a graph that displays information in a circle. The circle is divided into slices which represent a numerical proportion. The sum of angles in a pie chart is 360 degrees

To determine the number of students with a type of hair, use this formula :

(degree of the slice that represents the hair type / 360) x total number of students in the class

Degree of the slice that represents blond hair = 360 - (240 + 40) = 80

Students that have blonde hair = [tex]\frac{80}{360}[/tex]  x 36 = 8

Students that have dark hair = [tex]\frac{240}{360}[/tex] x 36 = 24

Students that have red hair = [tex]\frac{40}{360}[/tex] x 36 = 4
