<h2><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

Jessica sells = 240 books,

Josh sells = 16 books.

<h3>Given:-</h3>

The price of one book is = $15

Jessica sold 15 times more books than Josh.

In total, they have sold 256 books.

<h3>Solution:-</h3>

We can easily find the answer using variables.

Let,

Josh sold a total of x books whereas Jessica sold a total number of 15x books.

together they sold 16x books.

So we can form the equation

16x= 256

by solving this equation we will get x=16

So, Josh sold 16 books and Jessica sold 16×15=240 books in total.

Length of the hypotenuse of the triangle to the nearest tenth of a metre
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse is 2.4m

Step-by-step explanation:

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse

α = 55°

o: opposite  = 2.0m

h: hypotenuse

sin α = o/h

cos α= a/h

tan α = o/a

we see that it has (angle, hypotenuse, opposite)

we look at which meets those data between the sine, cosine and tangent

is the sine

sin α = o/ah

Now we replace the values ​​and solve

sin 55 = 2.0/h

0.81915 = 2.0/h

h = 2.0 / 0.81915

h = 2.4415 m

round to the nearest tenth

h = 2.4415 = 2.4 m

The length of the hypotenuse is 2.4m
