Answer: 10.9

Step-by-step explanation:

You would use Pythagorean theorem:

5x5+12x12=c

5x5=25

12x12=144

Now, 25+144=169

Now find the square root of 169 which is 13 which isn't an answer choice, which means your prolly after a leg.

I assume 12 is the hypotenuse

A(squared)+5x5=12x12

A+25=144

144-25=119

Square root of 119=10.9

So I'm going to go with answer 10 in or 11 if you round.

Find the value of x.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the sine ratio to find x

sin30° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{5}{x}$

cross- multiply

x × sin30° = 5 ( sin30° = 0.5 )

0.5x = 5 ( divide both sides by 0.5 )

x = 10

Dwayne scored 55 points in the last basketball game, which is 10 points more than his previous personal best. Lebron scored 15 p

spin [16.1K]

Answer: a) 30, b) 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let the number of points Scored by Dwayne be 'd'.

Number of points in the last basket ball game = 55 points

According to question, we get that

$d+10=55\\\\d=55-10\\\\d=45$

Let the number of points that Chris's score be 'c'.

Number of points Lebron scored = 45

According to question, number of points scored by Chris is given by

$c+15=45\\\\c=45-15\\\\c=30$

a. How many points did Chris score during the game?

c = 30

b. If these are the only three players who scored, what was the team’s total number of points at the end of the game?

$45+45+30=90+30\\\\=120$

Hence, a) 30, b) 120
