\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&amount&price&priced\ amount\\
&-----&-----&--------\\
\textit{9 bucks/lb}&x&9&9x\\
\textit{3 bucks/lb}&y&3&3y\\
-----&-----&-----&-------\\
mixture&240&5&1200
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\begin{cases}
x+y=240\implies \boxed{y}=240-x\\
9x+3y=1200\\
----------\\
9x+3\left( \boxed{240-x} \right)=1200
\end{cases}

solve for "x".

what about "y"? well, y = 240 - x

What is the measure of angle A?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A = 19.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hypotenuse

sin A = 2/6

Take the inverse sin of each side

sin ^-1 ( sin A) = sin ^-1 (2/6)

A =19.47122063

To the nearest hundredth

A = 19.47

There are values of t so that sin t=.35 and cos t=.6
NISA [10]

Recall the fundamental rule of trig:

\sin^2(x)+\cos^2(x)=1 \quad\forall x \in \mathbb{R}

So, there exists an angle t such that

(0.6,0.35)=(\sin(t),\cos(t))

if and only if

\sin^2(t)+\cos^2(t)=0.6^2+0.35^2=1

Working out the numbers, we get

0.6^2+0.35^2=0.36+0.1225=0.4825\neq 1

So, there doesn't exist a number t such that

(0.6,0.35)=(\sin(t),\cos(t))
