A certain book is for sale in both Belize and Brazil. In Belize, it sells for 80.39 Belize dollars. In Brazil, it sells for 63.6

5 Brazilian reals. The exchange rate of US dollars to Belize dollars is 1:1.9246, and the exchange rate of US dollars to Brazilian reals is 1:1.7880. When converted into US dollars, which country sells the book at a more expensive price, and how much more expensive is it? Round all currency values to two decimal places.

A book is sold in Belize for 80.39 Belize dollars.
In Brazil, it sells for 63.65 Brazilian reals.

The exchange rate of US Dollars to Belize Dollars is 1:1.9246
<span>The exchange rate of US Dollars to Brazilian Real is 1:1.7880
</span>
If we convert the two into dollars,
Belize Dollars 
1 : 1.9246 = X : <span>80.39 
1.9246X = 80.39
X = $ 41.77 

</span>Brazilian Real
1 : 1.7880 = X : 63.65 <span> 
</span>1.7880X = 63.65 <span>
X = $ 35.60
</span>
Difference = $ 41.77 - $ 35.60
Difference = $ 6.17

<span>So, in Belize the book is more expensive by $ 6.17</span>

What is the standard form of the equation of a line for which the length of the normal segment to the origin is 8 and the normal
jeka57 [31]
Slope of line = tan(120) = -tan(60) = - &radic;3
Distance from origin = 8

Let equation be Ax+By+C=0
then -A/B=-&radic;3, or
B=A/&radic;3.
Equation becomes
Ax+(A/&radic;3)y+C=0

Knowing that line is 8 units from origin, apply distance formula
8=abs((Ax+(A/&radic;3)y+C)/sqrt(A^2+(A/&radic;3)^2))
Substitute coordinates of origin (x,y)=(0,0)  =>
8=abs(C/sqrt(A^2+A^2/3))
Let A=1 (or any other arbitrary finite value)
solve for positive solution of C
8=C/&radic;(4/3) => C=8*2/&radic;3 = (16/3)&radic;3

Therefore one solution is
x+(1/&radic;3)+(16/3)&radic;3=0
or equivalently
&radic;3 x + y + 16 = 0

Check:
slope = -1/&radic;3  .....ok
distance from origin
= (&radic;3 * 0 + 0 + 16)/(sqrt(&radic;3)^2+1^2)
=16/2
=8  ok.

Similarly C=-16 will satisfy the given conditions.

Answer  The required equations are
&radic;3 x + y = &pm; 16 
in standard form.

You can conveniently convert to point-slope form if you wish.

Answer:

The value of angle is 56.9°

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find the length of hypotenuse using Pythagoras' Theorem, c² = a² + b² :

{c}^{2}  =  {a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}

let \: a = 8.25 \\ let \: b = 6.45

{c}^{2}  =  {8.25}^{2}  +  {6.45}^{2}

{c}^{2}  = 68.0625 + 41.6025

{c}^{2}  = 109.665

c =  \sqrt{109.665}

c = 10.47cm \: (4s.f)

In order to find θ, you have to apply Sine Rule :

\sin(θ)  =  \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

let \: oppo. = 8.77 \\ let \: hypo. = 10.47

\sin(θ)  =  \frac{8.77}{10.47}

θ =  { \sin( \frac{8.77}{10.47} ) }^{ - 1}

θ = 56.9 \: (1d.p)
