Answer:
Approximately 11 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the third side of the triangle be represented by x. Applying Cosine rule, we have:
= 
+ 
- 2abCos C
⇒ 
= 
+ 
- 2(8 x 12) Cos
= 64 + 144 - 192 x 0.42262
= 208 - 81.143
= 126.857
x = 
= 11.2631
x ≅ 11
The length of the third side of the triangle is approximately 11 feet.
Answer:
(-4,18)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, plug in -4 for x in the equation to solve for y, y = -2*-4+10, y = 8+10, y = 18. Now, you have the x and y coordinate for the point (-4,18).
Let's call Maria 'M' and Sal 'S'
Maria is 12 1/2 years older than Sal.
S + 12 1/2 = M
The sum of their ages is 28 1/2
S + M = 28 1/2
Solve for M in the second equation:
28 1/2 - S = M
The first equation is:
<span>S + 12 1/2 = M
</span>
Set them equal to each other since they both are equal to M.
28 1/2 - S = <span>S + 12 1/2
</span>
Basicaly, n = S, so your correct answer is B. 28 1/2 - n = n + 12 1/2
