            C= 85 degrees
                  / \         
                 /    \
a= 160    /        \    b= 160
             /            \
        B /_________\ A
                   c

What you're looking for is c so you can add a, b, and c together to get the material. To do this you need to use this formula, otherwise known as Law of Cosines:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcosC
c^2 = 25600 + 25600 - (2)(160)(160)(cos85)
c^2 = 51200 - (51200)(cos85)
c^2 = 51200 - (<span>-50400.084)
c^2 = </span><span>101600.084
c = 318.749
c + a + b = 638.749 or 639 ft if you're looking for a whole number
Keep in mind this answer is if what you're looking for is the perimeter, please let me know if it's the area you are looking for</span>

An automotive manufacturer wants to know the proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars over domestic. Step 1 of 2: Su
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

0.249 is the required proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 822

Number of people who preferred foreign cars over domestic, x = 205

We have to find the proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars.

Formula:

\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n}

Putting values, we get,

\hat{p} = \dfrac{205}{822}\\\\\hat{p} = 0.249

Thus, 0.249 is the proportion of the new car buyers who preferred foreign over domestic cars..

4 – (2y + 5) = 3(1 – 4y) show steps please
Lelu [443]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4−(2y+5)=3(1−4y)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4−(2y+5)=3(1−4y)

4+−1(2y+5)=3(1−4y)(Distribute the Negative Sign)

4+−1(2y)+(−1)(5)=3(1−4y)

4+−2y+−5=3(1−4y)

4+−2y+−5=(3)(1)+(3)(−4y)(Distribute)

4+−2y+−5=3+−12y

(−2y)+(4+−5)=−12y+3(Combine Like Terms)

−2y+−1=−12y+3

−2y−1=−12y+3

Step 2: Add 12y to both sides.

−2y−1+12y=−12y+3+12y

10y−1=3

Step 3: Add 1 to both sides.

10y−1+1=3+1

10y=4

Step 4: Divide both sides by 10.

10y
