Answers:
x = 24
y = 8√3
Explanation:

1) Since, the given triangle is a right triangle, and you have both an angle and the hypotenuse length, you can use some trigonometric ratios to find the variables.

2) The variables given represent:

x: adjacent-leg to angle 30°
y: opposite length to angle 30°

3) sine ratio:

sin 30° = opposite-leg / hypotenuse = y / (16√3)

⇒ y = 16√3 sin 30° = 16√3 × (1/2) = 8√3

4) cosine ratio

cos 30° = adjacent-leg / hypotenuse = x / (16√3)

⇒ x = 16√3 cos 30° = 16√3 (√3 / 2) = 16 × 3 / 2 = 24

One interior angle of a regular octagon is

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

<h2>135 degrees</h2>

<h2>To find the measure of the angles, we know that the sum of all the angles is 1080 degrees (from above)... And there are eight angles... So, the measure of the interior angle of a regular octagon is 135 degrees.</h2>

Akron Cinema sells an average of 500 tickets on Mondays, with a standard deviation of 50 tickets. If a simple random sample is t

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the number of tickets sales from Mondays is normally distributed. the formula for normal distribution would be applied. It is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

Where

x = ticket sales from monday

u = mean amount of ticket

s = standard deviation

From the information given,

u = 500 tickets

s = 50 tickets

We want to find the probability that the mean will be greater than 510. It is expressed as

P(x greater than 510) = 1 - P(x lesser than or equal to 510)

For x = 510

z = (510 - 500)/50 = 0.2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.9773

P(x greater than 510) = 1 - 0.9773 = 0.0227

Chan receives a bonus from his job. He pays 30% in taxes, gives 30% to charity, and uses another 15% to pay off an old debt. He

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Chan's Bonus amount was $2400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Total amount receive from bonus be 'x'.

Given:

Chan pays 30% in taxes;

So we can say;

Amount paid in taxes will be equal to 30% of total amount receive

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in taxes = $\frac{30}{100}x=0.3x = 0.3x$

Now Given:

Chan pays 30% in Charity;

So we can say;

Amount paid in charity will be equal to 30% of total amount receive.

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in Charity = $\frac{30}{100}x=0.3x$

Also Given:

Chan pays 30% in old debts;

So we can say;

Amount paid in Old debts will be equal 30% of total amount receive

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in Old debts = $\frac{15}{100}x=0.15x$

Money left with him = $600

Now we can say that Total Amount Receive in bonus will be equal to Amount paid in taxes plus Amount paid in charity plus Amount paid in old debts plus amount left.

framing in equation form we get;

$x=0.3x+0.3x+0.15x+600\\\\x= 0.75x +600\\\\x-0.75x=600\\\\0.25x=600\\\\x=\frac{600}{0.25} = \$2400$

Hence Chan's Bonus amount was $2400.
