Find the value of P, rounded to the nearest tenth

Mathematics
1 answer:
harkovskaia [24]3 years ago

we know that

In a right triangle NPM

cos 71°=adjacent side angle 71°/hypotenuse

adjacent side angle 71°=side NP

hypotenuse=side NM

NP=15

NM=p

so

cos 71=NP/NM

cos 71=15/p

solve for p

p=15/cos 71°

p=46.07----------->p=46.1 units


therefore


the answer is

46.1

2 less then 3 times a number is 9
Masteriza [31]

\huge\boxed{\text{As an expression:}\ 3x-2=9}

\huge\boxed{\text{Solved for x:}\ x=\frac{11}{3}}

Let's start with "3 times a number". We will use x to represent the number. 3x

"2 less than" is next. -2

Finally, "is 9". =9

Put it all together to get an expression. \boxed{3x-2=9}

Now, let's solve for the unknown number.

Add 2 on both sides of the equation. 3x=11

Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to isolate x. x=\boxed{\frac{11}{3}}
