Answer: Second option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

a = 300 m

b = 250 m

c = 200 m

We need to find the measure of angle i.e. A

As we know the "Law of Cosine rules ":

\cos A=\frac{b^2+c^2-a^c}{2bc}\\\\\cos A=\frac{250^2+200^2-300^2}{2\times 250\times 200}\\\\\cos A=\frac{12500}{100000}\\\\\cos A=0.125\\\\A=\cos^{-1}(0.125)\\\\A=82.81^\circ\\\\A\approx 83^\circ

Hence, Second option is correct.

If an object is dropped from a height of 96ft, the function h(t) = -62 + 96 gives the height of the object after t seconds. When
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:Since we want to know how much time elapsed since the object was launched until it ht the ground. At the ground, the height is 0.

 

Therefore the equation  h(t) = 80t – 16t2 becomes 0= 80t – 16t2

 

Solving the equation for t gives  80t =16t2 or 16t=80 or t=5sec

 

The object hits the ground 5 seconds after it is launched.

Avery goes out to lunch. The bill, before tax and tip, was $9.80. A sales tax of 6% was added on. Avery tipped 19% on the amount
love history [14]

Answer:

12.36

Step-by-step explanation:

price x sales tax rate =sales tax

9.80 x .06=sales tax

.59=sales tax

price + sales tax=price with sales tax included

9.80+.59=10.39

price with sales tax x tip percentage=tip amount

10.39 x .19=1.97

price with sales tax + tip = total amount

10.39+1.97=12.36

Below are two different functions, f(x) and g(x). What can be determined about their slopes? f(x) Dawn writes 800 pages in 80 da
lilavasa [31]
Given function f(x) which is described by "<span>Dawn writes 800 pages in 80 days".

From this function we can notice that Dawn writes 0 pages in 0 days, (i.e. the initial point of the function is point (0, 0).

Recall that the slope, m, of a line passing through points:
(x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)
is given by
m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Function f(x) passes through points (0, 0) and (80, 800).

Thus the slope of function f(x) is given by
m= \frac{800-0}{80-0} = \frac{800}{80} =10


Give function g(x), passing through points (2, -6) and (4, 12), the slope is given by
m= \frac{12-(-6)}{4-2} = \frac{12+6}{2} = \frac{18}{2} =9

It can be seen that the slope of f(x) and the slope of g(x) are close.
