Answer:

a)5/9 yards=0.556yards

b)10/9 yards=1.11 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

for the part a

To solve this exercise we must divide the total distance traveled by the grasshopper (5 yards) by the number of jumps that were made (9).

$d=\frac{5}{9}$

if you use the calculator you will realize that the value is 0.55yards

for the part b

knowing the distance traveled in a jump, we multiply this value by two to find out how much is the distance traveled in 2 jumps

$d=\frac{2x5}{9} =\frac{10}{9}$

if you use the calculator you will realize that the value is 1.11 yards

Solve the right triangle <br>round your answer to the nearest tenth.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Use SOH-CAH-TOA method and figure out which sign you need. SOH- Sin, CAH- Cos, TOA- Tan.

Also,

SOH- opposite/hypotenuse

CAH- adjacent/hypotenuse

TOA- opposite/adjacent

Look at the angle and see which terms you have already. For example, if you had opposite the angle and the adjacent side, you would choose tangent because its TOA. Hope that helps!

Find x. Give reasons to justify your solution. b Lines AB and CD are straight lines.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that lines AB and CD are straight lines that intersects at O, it follows that the pair of opposite vertical angles formed are congruent.

Thus,

<AOD = <BOC

<AOD = 152°

<BOC = 3x + x + (x + 12) (angle addition postulate)

<BOC = 5x + 12

Since <AOD = <BOC, therefore,

152° = 5x + 12 (substitution)

152 - 12 = 5x (subtraction property of equality)

140 = 5x

140/5 = x (division property of equality)

28 = x

x = 28
