Answer: 12x-4, 14 counters, 8 more counters

Step-by-step explanation:  There are 2x yellow, 4x+6 red, and 6x-10 blue counters. We need to add all of this up to get the total number of counters. We first add the x's : 2x+4x+6x = 12x. Then we add the numbers. 6+ (-10) is -4. So, our expression is 12x-4. Next, we need to find out how many blue counters are in the bag. We know that there are 44 total counters and we need to find x because all the counters have x in them. 12x-4 = 44. We first add 4 to both sides to get 12x= 48 and x = 4. blue has 6x-10 counters so, blue has 24-10 = 14 counters. Red has 16+6 = 22 counters. 22-14 = 8 more counters

Answer:

Sin A = o/h

= 9/41

Step-by-step explanation:

since Sin is equal to opposite over hypotenuse, from the question, the opposite angle of A is 9 and hypotenuse angle of A is 41. Thus the answer for Sin A= 9/41
