Answer:

C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Trigonometry ratio:

         \sf Cos \ \theta = \dfrac{Adjacent \ side}{hypotenuse}=\dfrac{-3}{10}

We need to find the opposite side using Pythagorean theorem.

 opposite side² = hypotenuse² - adjacent side²

                           = 10² - (-3)²

                            = 100 - 9

                           = 91

opposite side    = √91

                 \sf tan \ \theta = \dfrac{opposite \ side}{adjacent \ side}

                           \sf = \dfrac{\sqrt{91}}{3}

In quadrant II, value of tan \theta is negative.

              \sf tan \ \theta = -\dfrac{\sqrt{91}}{3}

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Collect like terms (all x together and constants together)

4x + 12 = 180

4x = 180 - 12

4x = 168

x = 168 / 4

x = 42

Whitepunk [10]

Answer: The pack of 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is because a pack of 20 sells for 2.50 for each pencil, and the pack of 12 sells for 2.51 per pencil, so that means the pack of 20 is cheaper.

In parallelogram MNPQ, side MN is seven inches longer than twice the length of side NP. If the perimeter of MNPQ is 68 inches, t
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: NP = 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are equal.

If the length of the longer side is MN, it means that the length of the two opposite longer sides is 2MN.

If the length of the shorter side is NP, it means that the length of the two opposite shorter sides is 2NP.

The perimeter is 2MN + 2NP

If the perimeter of MNPQ is 68 inches, it means that

2MN + 2NP = 68- - - - - - - - - - - -1

In parallelogram MNPQ, side MN is seven inches longer than twice the length of side NP. It means that

MN = 2NP + 7- - - - - - - - - - -2

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes

2(2NP + 7) + 2NP = 68

4NP + 14 + 2NP = 68

4NP + 2NP = 68 - 14

6NP = 54

NP = 54/6

NP = 9 inches

What is the best estimate for the length of a bike
castortr0y [4]
<span>The average length of a bike (including the length of both wheels) is about 68 inches.For finding the true answer we must follow the following convertion rule: 1 inch is equivalent to 0.02 yard, so 68 inches equal to 1.88 yards. Consequently, the value nearest 1.88 yards is 1.5 yards, so the answer is the choice A: 1.5 yards. </span>
