How many live in the central region?

10,648

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of residents is 24,200.

The probability that a resident is from the central region is 0.44.

To find the number of residents in the central region, we multiply the corresponding probability by the total number of residents.

The number of people who live in the central region is

(sin 42)/31. = sinx)/37

sinx = 37 (sin42)/31

= 37× 0.66/31 = 0.787

x= 51.9

other angle opposite to y = 180-51.9-42

= 180- 93.9 =86.1

so

sin42)/31 = sin 86.1)/y

0.021 = 0.997 /y

y= 0.997/0.021 =47.47
