Answer:

The graph below models the value of a $20,000 car t years after it was purchased.

Value of Car

A graph titled Value of Car has years on the x-axis and Dollars on the y-axis. A line curves down and goes through points (0, 20,000), (4, 10,000), and (14, 2,000).

Which statement best describes why the value of the car is a function of the number of years since it was purchased?

Each car value, y, is associated with exactly one time, t.

Each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.

The rate at which the car decreases in value is not constant.

There is no time, t, at which the value of the car is 0.

Two sides of a triangle have measures 3 ft and 6 ft. Also, these sides form a vertex whose angle measures 60 degrees. Calculate

Basile [38]

Answer:

A. The length of the third side is approximately 5 feet.

B. A = $88^{o}$ , B = $60^{o}$ and C = $32^{o}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the triangle be ABC. Given two sides and an included angle, let us apply the cosine rule to determine the third length.

A. Let side a = 6 feet and c = 3 feet, thus;

$b^{2}$ = $a^{2}$ + $c^{2}$ - 2ac Cos B

= $6^{2}$ + $3^{2}$ - 2(6 x 3) Cos $60^{o}$

= 36 + 9 - 36 x 0.5

= 45 - 18

$b^{2}$ = 27

b = $\sqrt{27}$

= 5.1962

b = 5.2 feet

b ≅ 5 feet

The length of the third side is approximately 5 feet.

B. Given that B = $60^{o}$ , then let us apply the Sine rule to determined the measure of A.

$\frac{a}{SinA}$ = $\frac{b}{SinB}$

So that,

$\frac{6}{Sin A}$ = $\frac{5.2}{Sin60^{o} }$

Sin A = $\frac{0.886*6}{5.2}$

Sin A = 0.99923

A = $Sin^{-1}$ 0.99923

= 87.75

A ≅ $88^{o}$

Since the sum of angle in a triangle = $180^{o}$ .

Then,

A + B + C = $180^{o}$

$88^{o}$ + $60^{o}$ + C = $180^{o}$

$148^{o}$ + C = $180^{o}$

C = $180^{o}$ - $148^{o}$

= $32^{o}$

C = $32^{o}$

Thus,

A = $88^{o}$ , B = $60^{o}$ and C = $32^{o}$ .

The sum of m and n is 32, and the value of m is three times the value of n. what is the value of m and n?

inn [45]

Answer:

The correct set of equations is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

m + n = 32

m = 3n

We have 4n = 32, so n = 8 and m = 24.

A pole that is 3.1 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.18 m long.At the same time , a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 35.75 m lo

Georgia [21]

Answer:

94 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Write a proportion:

3.1 / 1.18 = x / 35.75

Cross multiply and solve:

1.18x = 3.1 × 35.75

1.18x = 110.825

x ≈ 94

Rounded to the nearest meter, the height of the tower is approximately 94 meters.

Kamila buys a notebook for $1.59 and pens for $0.29 each. She spends $5.07.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

12 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the variable that can be used to determine the number of pens that Kamila bought be represented by n.

Price of a notebook = $1.59

Price a pen = $0.29

Total amount spent = $5.07

But,

1.59 + 0.29 n = 5.07

So that,

0.29 n = 5.07 - 1.59

0.29 n = 3.48

n = $\frac{3.48}{0.29}$

= 12

Therefore, Kamila bought 12 pens.
