You actually aren't supposed use to the Pythagorean Theorem. You are supposed to implement the trigonometry functions.

The angle, 60, is directly opposite with what you're trying to find, y. Also since you have another side of the triangle that is identified, you can figure what trig function to use. The line next to the angle is the adjacent. We have the adjacent and opposite. The trig function that implements both sides is the Tangent. The formula for it is tangent(angle) = opposite/adjacent.

Now substitute the number into the formula.

tan(60) = y / 5

We need to isolate y, so we times 5 and tan(60)

tan(60) x 5 = <span>8.66

y is now isolated and the answer is 8.66 = y</span>

Alicia shoots A basketball at a hoop hundred times. She hits the backboard and Misses with 2/5 of her shots, hit the rim and mis
g100num [7]

Answer:

28 baskets

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Shots = 100

Backboard and miss = 2/5 of total

That is:

\frac{2}{5}*100=40

Rim and miss = 32% of total

That is:

32% = 32/100 = 0.32

0.32 * 100 = 32 shots

So, miss = 40 + 32 = 72

The rest, she makes, so left:

100 - 72 = 28 shots

Alicia makes 28 baskets (from 100)

D=number of drinks
p=number of bags of popcorn

75=6d+8p
100.50=12d+10p

multiply first equation by -2 and add to first
-49.50=-6p
divide -6
8.25=p
sub

100.50=12d+10p
100.50=12d+82.50
minus 82.50
18=12d
divide 12
