The picture in the attached figure

we know that
Applying the law of sines
b/sin B=a/sin A------> a=b*sin A/sin B
b=9
B=15°
A=180-(90+15)-----> A=75°
a=?
a=b*sin A/sin B-----> a=9*sin 75/sin 15----> a=33.59 units

the answer is
33.59 units

What is the circumference of circle p ? Express in terms of pie
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
The circumference of a circle is calculated using the following equation:

C= \pi d

Where d is equal to the diameter (the length of a straight line from one side of the circle to the other side).

We know that the diameter of the circle given (also known as AB) is equal to 20 cm.

We can then plug this into the equation and solve for the circumference:

C= \pi (20)

Since the question asks for the answer to be in terms of \pi, this is as far as we need to go. So the circumference of the circle is: 20 \pi or D.

Ax-bx+y=z solve for x​
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

This question requires us to change the subject of a formula. This can be achieved by following the order of operations in reverse. First, isolate the terms with our variable of interest, x:

ax - bx = z - y

Then, we take x out as it is being multiplied to both a and b:

x(a - b) = z - y

Dividing (a - b) on both sides, we get:

x = (z - y) / (a - b)

Thus, the answer is x= z-y/a-b

3p - 2(p-4) = 7p + 6
Serggg [28]

For this case we must find the value of the variable "p" of the following equation:

3p-2 (p-4) = 7p + 6

We apply distributive property on the left side of the equation taking into account that +*-=-  and - * - = +:

3p-2p + 8 = 7p + 6

We add similar terms:

p + 8 = 7p + 6

We subtract 7p  from both sides of the equation:

p-7p + 8 = 6\\-6p + 8 = 6

We subtract 8 from both sides of the equation:

-6p = 6-8\\-6p = -2

We divide by -6 on both sides of the equation:

p = \frac {-2} {- 6}\\p = \frac {1} {3}

Answer:

p = \frac {1} {3}

Picking a month of the year in the day of the week (fundamental counting principle)
inysia [295]
Since you mentioned the fundamental counting principle, I assume you are looking for the total number of possibilities.

If you are picking a month, there are 12 options.
If you are selecting a day of the week, there are 7 options.

If you are doing both, you multiply the two numbers together.
12 x 7 = 84
