Answer:
1. B
2. B
Step-by-step explanation:
** Attached picture of the situation
The bird caught the fish at point A, flew until B (which is 100 yds away, dropped the fish at C (which is horizontally 50 yards from A).
1.
We want the angle that the bird creates with the water (horizontal). It is angle BAC. With respect to the right triangle, we can say that we know "hypotenuse" and "adjacent" side to angle BAC. cosine relates hypotenuse and adjacent, thus we can write:
correct answer is B
2.
Here, we want to find the distance (length) of segment BC. With respect to the angle BAC (we found to be 60), we can say BC is "opposite". We know hypotenuse to be 100. So let's use sine, since sine is ratio of opposite to hypotenuse. Thus, we can write:
correct answer is B
Answer:
4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
You work out the price of each share:
$2500 ÷ 125 = $20 each
10% of that is $2, which added on means the share is worth $22
Hope it helps:-)
The two angles are corresponding angles, so they are congruent (due to the horizontal lines being parallel)
x+15 = 102
x+15-15 = 102-15 .... subtract 15 from both sides
x = 87
Answer: the efficiency of the first car is 25 miles per gallon.
the efficiency of the second car is 30 miles per gallon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the efficiency of the first car.
Let y represent the efficiency of the second car.
Distance = car efficiency × number of gallons.
The first car consume 25 gallons of gas and the second consumed 15 gallons of gas. The two cars Drove a combined total of 1075 miles. It means that
25x + 15y = 1075- - - - - - - - - - -1
The sum of the fuel efficiencies was 55 miles per gallon. It means that
x + y = 55
Substituting x = 55 - y into equation 1, it becomes
25(55 - y) + 15y = 1075
1375 - 25y + 15y = 1075
- 25y + 15y = 1075 - 1375
- 10y = - 300
y = - 300/-10
y = 30
x = 55 - y = 55 - 30
x = 25
