Answer:

y = 6√3 and x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a 30-60-90 triangle.  The side opposite the 30° angle corresponds to the side of length 1  in the most basic 30-60-90 triangle; the side opp. 60° to the side of length √3; and the hyp. to the side of length 2.

To find y, write and solve an equation of ratios, as follows:

adj side           adj side      (adjacent to the 30° angle)

    y                       √3

 hypo               hypo    then (cross multiplying):  2y = 12√3, and

    12                     2       y = 6√3

If the hypo here is 12 and the adj side (y) is 6√3, then we can use the Pyth. Theorem to find the third side (x):

[12]² = [6√3]² - x²  ↔ 144 = 36(3) - x²   ↔  36 = x².  So x = 6 here.

Answer:

x = 6

y ≈ 10. 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the SOHCAHTOA principle we can solve for x and y since the angle is known and it is a right angle triangle.

hypotenuse = 12

adjacent = x

opposite = y

cos 60° = adjacent/hypotenus

cos 60° = x/12

cross multiply

x = 12 cos 60°

x = 12 × 0.5

x = 6

Finding y

sin 60° = opposite/hypotenuse

sin 60° = y/12

cross multiply

y = 12 sin 60°

y  = 12 × 0.8660254038

y =  10.392304845

y ≈ 10. 40

Answer:

The copy machine makes 87.5 copies in one minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation to divide 4 into 350. This is because in order to know how many copies is being made in 1 minute, you need to determine the rate of copies per minute.

350 divided by 4 is 87.5.

One long-distance company offers a plan such that each minute costs $0.10 and each call has a $0.25 service
gladu [14]

Answer:

<em>y=0.10(t)+0.25 </em>

<em>27 minutes and 30 seconds </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that you start with 25 cents as a service fee, this is for making the call. For each minute you talk, 10 cents are added. Multiply the number of minutes spent by 10 cents a minute for the cost based on the call. Then add the 25 cents service fee.

If you talked for 5 minutes:

y=0.10(5)+0.25

y=0.50+0.25

y=0.75

75 Cents

For three dollars, you would plug in 3 for y

3.00=0.10(t)+0.25

-0.25            -0.25

2.75=0.10(t)

divide both sides by 0.10 to get

27.5=t

You can talk for 27 minutes and 30 seconds

27 minutes
