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

Tanner made his aunt a garden. The width is 9 4/5 ft and the length is 5 3/4 ft. What is the area of
ratelena [41]

Answer:

56.35 ft^2, or 56 7/20 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

One way of doing this problem quickly is to convert both measurements into improper fractions before multiplying them:

9 4/5 = 49/5 and 5 3/4 = 23/4.

Then the area of the garden is 49/5 times 23/4, or 1127/20 ft^2, or

56.35 ft^2, or 56 7/20 ft^2.

Michael has a substantial student debt, but he recently got a new job, which came with a signing bonus. He calculates that with
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

5000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the question :

The size of debt after m months is respresented by the expression :

36,700 - (5000 + 500m)

Since Michael has decided to dedicate the entirety of his signing bonus towards paying his debt, then that is a constant and one-off payment.

Also, a fixed portion of his salary each month has also been assigned towards paying off his debt,

Then the amount paid from his salary after a certain number of months will be:

Fixed amount × number of months = 500 × m

Amount paid using signing bonus will be a constant = 5000

Total debt amount = 36,700

Size of debt left after m months :

Total debt - ( signing bonus - fixed amount × m)

Hence signing bonus = 5000

Can someone help me with this i got the question wrong the first time so its not 7.50
Sedaia [141]

Answer: $7.6502

Step-by-step explanation:

Grape cost $1.19 per pound. 3.16 pounds are bought. The total amount paid for grape will be:

= $1.19 × 3.16

= $3.7604

Peaches cost $1.29 per pound. 1.35 pounds are bought. The total amount paid for peaches will be:

= $1.29 × 1.35

= $1.7415

Peers cost $0.99 per pound. 2.17 pounds are bought. The total amount paid for pears will be:

= $0.99 × 2.17

= $2.1483

Total bill paid will be:

= $3.7604 + $1.7415 + $2.1483

= $7.6502

How can you use distributive property to find 3/4 times 2 and 1/3
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

1 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set it up like the distrubtive property first

3/4(2+ 1/3)    Next you use the distirbutive property instead of adding inside the parenthesis and you multiply the 3/4 by 2 and then the 3/4 by 1/3

Use 2 as 2/1 in fraction problems

3/4 * 2/1        Now multiply the numerators together and the denomenators together

3 * 2 = 6          4 * 1 =4

6/4

3/4 *1/3

3 * 1 =3

4 * 3 =12

3/12

Now we have to make them both like terms (same denominator) so we can add them, we will multiply the 6/4 by 3 (Both top and bottom)

6 * 3 = 18               4 *3 =12

18/12

Now we add the fractions

3/12 +18/12 = 21/12

Reduce that and you get

21/12 = 1 9/12  or 1 3/4
