Let the length of equilateral triangle be x.

Each of the angle in an equilateral triangle is = 60°

The opposite to the 60° is the 18 inches. Hypotenuse is the side.

Sin 60° = 18 / Hypotenuse

Hypotenuse = 18 / Sin60°.                      Sin60° = √3 / 2

 x = 18 / (√3 / 2)

                      =   18 / √3  *  2/1 =  36 / √3

              x       = 36 / √3

 Rationalize the surd = 36 / √3  * (√3 / √3 ) = 36√3 / 3

                                   x = 12√3 ≈ 12 * 1.732 ≈ 20.784

Length of side, x = 12√3 ≈ 20.784 inches.

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a total of $30, but you can't spend it all on buckets of balls because first you have to pay the fee to attend the golf clinic.

So you have to figure out how much you have left after you spend $12 on fees.

$30−$12=$18

This means that you can spend $18 on buckets of golf balls.

At $3 each, how many buckets can you buy with $18?

18÷3=6

This means that you can buy

<u>6</u> buckets of golf balls at the clinic after paying the fee to join.

Equation:

12+3x=30

3x=18

x=6

Answer: Y=2.50x+b

Step-by-step explanation:

Thats not the whole answer, you didnt attach the graph but what you need to do is find the y-intercept and put that into b and theres your equation. The y-intercept(B) represents the initial  money that joe had in his savings the 2.50x part or the slope is the money that he states he can add each week.

V=pi*r^2*h/3
=> h=3V/(pi*r^2)
V=6pi^2 cm^3
r=3 cm

h=3V/(pi*r^2)=6*pi^2 / (pi*3^2) = 2pi  cm

Height = 2 pi cm
