$Let \: x \: be \: the \: time \: which \: Laura \: worked \\ The \: time \: Tim \: worked:x - 10 \\ The \: time \: Eric \: worked:2x \\ We \: have \: an \: equation:x + x - 10 + 2x = 210 \\ < = > 4x = 220 \\ < = > x = 55 \: (hrs) \\ So \: Laura \: worked \: for \: 55 \: hours \: on \: the \: campaign.$

Find the missing side of each triangle. Leave your answers in simplest radical form.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

x = 2 $\sqrt{34}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras identity in the right triangle

x² = 10² + 6² = 100 + 36 = 136 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = $\sqrt{136}$ = $\sqrt{4(34)}$ = 2 $\sqrt{34}$

Solve the equation sine Ф=0.6792 for 0°≤Ф≤360

Sergio [31]

Answer:

42.78⁹, 137.22⁹.

Step-by-step explanation:

sine Ф=0.6792

Angle Ф in the first quadrant = 42.78 degrees.

The sine is also positive in the second quadrant so the second solutio is

180 - 42.78

= 137.33 degres.

Hey! Can someone check my answers?

Andrew [12]

The greatest common factor is the biggest number taken from the values.

Q1. The answer is A. 5y^6

$20 y^{9} +5 y^{6}= 4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}$
Since $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ , then $x^{9}= x^{3}* x^{6}$

Back to our expression:
$4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}=4*5 y^{3}*y^{6}+5 y^{6}=4 y^{3}*5y ^{6}+ 5y ^{6}*1=5 y^{6} (4y ^{3} +1)$
The greatest common factor is thus $5 y^{6}$

Q2. The answer is D. 12xy^2

$12x y^{5}+60 x^{4} y^{2} -24 x^{3} y^{3}=12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}$
We will use the rule $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ to factorise the exponents:
$12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}= \\ =12x*y^{2}*y^{3}+5*12*x* x^{3} *y^{2}-2*12x* x^{2} *y*y^{2}= \\ =12xy^{2}*y^{3}+12xy^{2}*5 x^{3} -12xy^{2}*2 x^{2} y= \\ =12xy^{2}(y^{3}+5 x^{3}-2 x^{2} y)$
The greatest common factor is thus $12xy^{2}$

Answer: <B is congruent to <E

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no “angle,angle,angle” theorem when proving triangles are congruent.

There are 5 however that do:

ASA (angle, included side, angle)

SSS (side, side, side)

SAS (side, included angle, side)

AAS (angle,angle, non included side)

HL (hypotenuse,leg)
