Answer: C) 12.2

================================================

Explanation:

We have a known adjacent side (10) and an unknown hypotenuse (x). The cosine rule ties the two sides together.

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(35) = 10/x

x*cos(35) = 10

x = 10/cos(35)

x = 12.2077458876146 approximately

x = 12.2

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

Answer:

$\boxed{12.2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

cos θ = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

The hypotenuse of the triangle is x.

cos (35) = $\frac{10}{x}$

x = $\frac{10}{cos(35)}$

x = 12.20774588...

x ≈ 12.2

Answer:

5 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

To make 60 cookies you need 3 cups of sugar.

If you divide 60 / 3 you get 20.

That means: 1 cup = 20 cookies

Therefore to make 100 cookies you need 5 cups of sugar!

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

$\frac{7}{12} = 0.5833$ = 58.33% probability that the outcome is less than 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

For the penny there are two outcomes, and for the die there are 6. So 2*6 = 12 total outcomes.

If the penny is tails, there are 5 outcomes which are less than 6. If it is heads, as the value is multiplied by 2, only 2 values of the die(1 or 2) will be below 6 after being multiplied by 2. So 5 + 2 = 7 total outcomes

What is the probability that the outcome is less than 6?

$p = \frac{7}{12} = 0.5833$

$\frac{7}{12} = 0.5833$ = 58.33% probability that the outcome is less than 6

The equation of line WX is y = −2x − 5. Write an equation of a line perpendicular to line WX in slope-intercept form that contai

densk [106]

Answer:

third option

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 2x - 5 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 2

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$ = - $\frac{1}{-2}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ , then

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 1, 1) into the partial equation

1 = - $\frac{1}{2}$ + c ⇒ c = 1 + $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{3}{2}$

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + $\frac{3}{2}$ ← equation of perpendicular line
