Answer:

Option C. 56 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached, in ΔABC

By Pythagoras Theorem,

AB² = AC² + BC²

      = 16² + 30²

      = 256 +900

AB² = 1156

AB  =  34

Now sinA = \frac{BC}{AB} = \frac{30}{34}

             A = sin⁻¹  (\frac{30}{34}) = 61.93°

From ΔABD

∠A + ∠B + ∠D = 180°

61.93° + 90° + ∠D = 180°

∠D = 180 - 151.93° = 28.07°

Now tan 28.07° =\frac{BC}{CD} = \frac{30}{CD}

0.53328=\frac{30}{CD}

CD = \frac{30}{0.53328} = 56.25 cm ≈ 56 cm

Option C. 56 cm is the answer.

Liz simplified the expression 5x - 3(4 - x) and got 2x -12. Did she simplify the expression correctly? Explain how you know.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Incorrect. She forgot to change the sign while distributing.

5x - 3(4-x) = 5x - 12 + 3x = 8x - 12
