The area calculation for the shaded section, as seen in the attached diagram, involves subtracting the area of the kite from that of the rectangle. The area of the rectangle is calculated as (3x+x)*(x+x), which simplifies to 4x*2x, equating to 8x². The area of the kite is determined using the formula (1/2)*[d1*d2], where d1 and d2 represent the diagonals, specifically d1=4x and d2=2x. Therefore, the area of the kite becomes (1/2)*[4x*2x], leading to 4x². Consequently, the area of the shaded region can be computed as 8x²-4x², resulting in 4x². Thus, the solution is 4x².
Detailed explanation: If the class has 15 boys and 10 girls, this totals 25 students. The likelihood of selecting a girl first would be

. After that selection, there would be one fewer girl and overall student, resulting in the probability for choosing another girl being

. The final probability is obtained by multiplying these two results to yield

.
Define the unit vectors along the x and y axes as

correspondingly.
Consequently, the vector from P to Q is

In terms of components, vector PQ is represented as (-8,5).
The magnitude of vector PQ can be calculated as
√[(-8)² + 5²] = √(89) = 9.434
Answer:
Thus, vector PQ is (-8, 5), and its magnitude equals √89 (or 9.434).
