The picture in the attached figure

we know that
in the right triangle ABD
AB²=BD²+AD²-----> BD²=AB²-AD²
AB=8
AD=64/17
BD²=8²-(64/17)²----> 64-(4096/289)----> BD²=14400/289
BD=√(14400/289)-----> BD=120/17

sin A=BD/AB-----> sin A=(120/17)/8----> 15/17

the answer is
15/17

Answer:

b) 15/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that ΔABD is a right triangle with AB the hypotensue. The sine of an angle is the ratio of

opposite leg

hypotenuse

. In ΔABD you can solve for the opposite leg (BD) using the Pythagorean Theorem.

BD2 + [64/17)2 = 82

BD =

120

17

. Therefore, sin A =

15

17

aleksandr82 [10.1K]
First, you need to substitute y for 2/3:

2/3 • 6

Next, change 6 into a fraction and multiply straight across:

2/3 • 6/1
12/3

Finally, simplify it to its simplest form:

4
Your answer should be 4.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

x - > number of Avocado

y -> number of melon

Step 2:

x ≤ 3y

x +  y ≥ 20

Step 3:

x + y≥ 20

     y ≥ -x + 20

Step 4:

( 1 , 20)

x ≤ 3y               ; y≥ -x + 20

1 ≤ 3*20          ;  20 ≥ -1 + 20

1 ≤ 60              ; 20 ≥ 19

raven plans to increase the price of each item in her store up 10%. which of the following sets of step could raven use to find
user100 [1]
To get the price of the new item after an increase of 10% you would have to find 10% of whatever the price is and add it to the original price so for example say the price is $300 you would do 300*0.10(0.10 is 10%) which is 30 and add that to 300 so the new price would be $330
