Using the cosine rule, the equation to use to solve for x is: x = √(4.0² + 4.7² − 2(4.0)(4.7) × cos(41)) ≈ 3.1 cm.

<h3>How to Use the Cosines Rule to Solve a Triangle?</h3>

The cosine rule is given as, c = √(a² + b² − 2ab × cos(C))

Given the following:

c = x = ?
a = 4.0 cm
b = 4.7 cm
C = 41°

Plug in the values:

x = √(4.0² + 4.7² − 2(4.0)(4.7) × cos(41))

x ≈ 3.1 cm

One pound of swordfish costs as much as 1.5 pounds of salmon. Mrs. O pays $39 for 2 pounds of salmon and 3 pounds of swordfish.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The ratio of the amount for swordfish to the amount of salmon is 6:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The price for 1 pound of swordfish = The price of 1.5 pound of salmon

So, On this relation

The price for ( 1 × 2 ) pound of swordfish = The price of ( 1.5× 2 ) pound of salmon

i.e The price for 2 pound of swordfish = The price of 3 pound of salmon

Now According to question

Mrs. O pay the total money for 2 pounds of swordfish and 3 pound of salmon = $ 39

Let the money she pay for swordfish = 2 sw

And The money she pay for salmon = 3 sa

∵, The total money she pay for both = $ 39

I.e 2 sw + 3 sa = 39

As 2 sw = 3 sa

So, 3 sa + 3 sa = 39

Or, 6 sa = 39

or, sa = $\frac{39}{6}$ = $\frac{13}{2}$

∴ sw = $\frac{13}{2}$ × $\frac{3}{2}$

or, sw = $\frac{39}{4}$

Now, the ratio of the amount for swordfish to the amount of salmon = $\frac{\frac{39}{4}}{\frac{13}{2}}$

I.e The ratio = $\frac{6}{4}$

Hence The ratio of the amount for swordfish to the amount of salmon is 6:4
