Sinα=height/length

length=height/sinα, we are given that α=20° and h=33 in

length=33/sin20° in

length≈96.49 in (to nearest hundredth of an inch)

This is a sin operation, Sin is the relationship between the opposite (height) and the hypotenuse (length of ramp). Plugging in: Sin(20deg) = 33/x

Sin(20) = 33/x

x*Sin(20) = 33

x = 33/Sin(20)

x = 96.49in long.

*This answer is the length of the SLOPE of the ramp.

How to solve this? Don't just give me the answer help me learn this.
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

I'm not entirely sure but I think that what is says is that it wants you to find the value of x in (4x+28) to make it 116 degrees because it is that same angle. So what you do is you get (4x+28)=116 and you do this because they are the same angle so you use 116 and get it to solve x. Since I'm lazy, then I go to this website and type the equation in: m a t h w a y . c o m but without all of the spaces, I had to do that so it would let me answer this, but I'll do it the real way this time. (4x+28)=116  Their is a rule in math that as long as you do something to one side of the equal sign in the equation, you have to do it to the other and it will still work. So, you minus 28 from both sides so that you can get rid of it and you now have 4x=88. Now you should know this part but you divide 4 from both sides to make so x is alone. Now you have x=22 because you divided 4 from each side. So their is your answer: x=22.

Step-by-step explanation: If you have the answer key that you can check from to make sure you got it right because I know some teachers let you do that, then you should make sure that is right, but I am pretty sure it is.

Lester’s car can go 15.4 miles on 1 gallon of gas. How far can he go on 0.7 gallon?
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

He can go 10.78 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solve by creating a proportion, knowing that 15.4 miles is to one gallon the same as "x" miles (our unknown) is to 0.7 gallons. This can be set in math terms as the equation that relates these two ratios of miles per gallon:

\frac{15.4\,miles}{1\,gallon} =\frac{x }{0.7\,gallon}

and to solve for the unknown number of mile, we multiply both sides of the equation by "0.7 gallon" in order to isolate our unknown:

\frac{15.4\,miles}{1\,gallon} =\frac{x}{0.7\,gallon}\\\frac{15.4\,miles\,*\,0.7\,gallon}{1\,gallon} =x \\x=10.78\,miles

solong [7]

Answer:

n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

4n + 12 = 4

Subtract 12 from both sides.

4n = -8

Divide both sides by 4.

n = -2
