The length of the bridge is 12.12 feet.

The length the dog swam is 32.36 feet.

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>What is a right angle triangle?</h3>

A right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. Therefore, the sides and angle can be found using trigonometric ratios.

The length of the bridge is the opposite side of the triangle and the length the dog swim is the hypotenuse side of the triangle.

Therefore,

Let's find the length of the bridge as follows:

tan 68° = opposite / adjacent

tan 68° = 30 / l

cross multiply

l = 30 / tan 68

l = 12.1212121212

length of the bridge = 12.12 ft

The length the dog swim is as follows:

sin 68°= opposite / hypotenuse

sin 68° = 30 / h

h = 30 / sin 68

h = 32.3561767942

The distance the dog swimmed = 32.36 ft

Eight less than 1/3 a number n is -13
Goryan [66]
1/3n - 8 = -13 <== ur equation
1/3n = -13 + 8
1/3n = - 5
n = -5 * 3
n = -15

check..
1/3(-15) - 8 = -13
-5 - 8 = -13
-13 = -13 (correct)

so the number (n) = -15

Demarcus has to wrap a gift for his friend's birthday party. the gift is in a rectangular box with the dimensions shown below. h
Leya [2.2K]

The gift wrap needed by Damarcus = total surface area of a rectangular box = 1,048 in.².

<h3>What is the Total Surface Area of a Rectangular Box?</h3>

Total surface area (TSA) = 2(wl+hl+hw), where:

  • l = length
  • w = width
  • h = height of the box.

The amount of gift wrap needed to cover the whole box = total surface area of the rectangular box

l = 20 in.

w = 8 in.

h = 13 in.

Plug in the values into the formula for total surface area of a rectangular box:

TSA = 2(8×20 + 13×20 + 13×8)

TSA = 1,048 in.²

Therefore, the gift wrap needed by Damarcus = total surface area of a rectangular box = 1,048 in.².

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

53 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time required for a full video upload.  This would have the unit of (minutes/full upload).  Since the upload rate is constant, we can write:

(0.17)*(x) = 9 minutes

This equation states that 17% of the full upload time is 9 minutes.

Solve for x:

x = (9 minutes)/(0.17)

x = 52.9 minutes or 53 minutes with 2 sig figs
