Answer:

Sara studies longer by 15 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate how long Sebastian studies for. From 3:15 - 4:15, there is 1 hour and from 4:15 to 4:45, there are 30 minutes so Sebastian studies for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Now, let's calculate how long Sara studies for. From 4:30 - 5:30, there is 1 hour, from 5:30 - 6:00, there are 30 minutes and from 6:00 - 6:15, there are 15 minutes so Sara studies for 1 hour 45 minutes. This means that Sara studies longer by 45 - 30 = 15 minutes.

1. Add x on both sides of the equation.
2. Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.
3. Divide both sides of the equation by 3.

Select the correct answer from the drop down menu. with references to the figure, sin x =

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

.894

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing to do is to solve for the height of the triangle, BD. That's easy. We have the length of the hypotenuse and the base, so Pythagorean's Theorem gives us that the height is 8.003255588 which rounds nicely to 8. Now you have to call on the fond memories you have of the geometric mean in right triangles to solve the rest. For the sin of x you need the hypotenuse of that smaller right triangle on the left, side AB. First let's use geometric mean to find AD. The formula for that, now that we know the height, is

$BD^2=(AD)(DC)$

Filling that in with numbers we have

$8^2=(AD)16$ and

64 = 16(AD). Solve for AD to get that AD has a length of 4. Now we know two of the three sides in that smaller triangle on the left and can solve for the hypotenuse.

$8^2+4^2=c^2$ and

$64+16=c^2$ so

c=√80 which simplifies to 4√5. That means that the sin ratio for x is

$\frac{8}{4\sqrt{5} }$

which divides out to .894

Find the equation of the line that passes through (3,1) and is parallel to y = 3 − 2 x . Leave your answer in the form y = m x +

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

y=3-2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel to y = 3 − 2 x => y=c-2x

Through (3,1) => 1=c-2(1) <=> c=3

Line is y=3-2x

Compare the following sentences:

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer: Let us assume that our income is $X.

In the first case:

1) We received a raise and our income increased to 135% of its previous amount.

"increased to" denotes that we will multiply our original income by the percentage given.

Therefore our income would be = $X * 1.35 = $1.35

In the second case:

2) We received a raise and our income increased by 135%.

"increased by" denotes that we have to add the given percentage of our income to our original income.

<em><u>Therefore our income would be $X + $X*1.35= $2.35X</u></em>
