The answer is 13.2 m.
Because we are only given the hypotenuse, adjacent, and theta measurements.
the opposite side is always opposite theta. In this case, theta is 39 degrees. The hypotenuse is always the slant of the triangle, so it is 17 m. And adjacent is obviously the only one left, in this case, it is x.
You have to use sin, cos, or tan for this problem. You would use cos because cos = adjacent /hypotenuse (x/17)
so you would do cos(39) times 17
x = cos(39) * 17
x = .777 * 17
x = 13.21
And it says round to the nearest tenth, so it is 13.2 m.
Hope this helps.

Answer as a fraction = 2/3
Answer in decimal form = 0.667 (approximate)
=======================================================
Explanation:
The first thing we need is to find the mean. Add up the values to get 3+3+4+5+5+4 = 24. Then divide by n = 6 since there are 6 values.
24/n = 24/6 = 4
The mean is 4
Now subtract the mean from each value
- 3-4 = -1
- 3-4 = -1
- 4-4 = 0
- 5-4 = 1
- 5-4 = 1
- 4-4 = 0
Apply absolute value to each result so that the difference is not negative.
We get this new list: {1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0}
Now compute the mean of that new list to get the final answer
1+1+0+1+1+0 = 4
4/n = 4/6 = 2/3 = 0.667 approximately

Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Replace the values of x and y into the equation.
2(4) + 3 = 8 + 3
= 11
