Jessica and her sister have a combined age of 47. Jessica is 5 years older than her sister. How old is Jessica

1 answer:

4 0

Let the sister be x years old.
Then Jessica is x + 5 years old.
Their ages add to 47.

x + x + 5 = 47

2x + 5 = 47

2x = 42

x = 21

x + 5 = 26

Jessica is 26, and her sister is 21.

Given a triangle with: a = 150, A = 75°, and C = 30° Using the law of sines gives: c = 0

koban [17]

Answer:

$c = 77.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

You may have entered the measure of a side as the measure of an angle.

$\dfrac{\sin A}{a} = \dfrac{\sin C}{c}$

$\dfrac{\sin 75^\circ}{150} = \dfrac{\sin 30^\circ}{c}$

$c\sin 75^\circ = 150 \sin 30^\circ$

$c = \dfrac{150 \sin 30^\circ}{\sin 75^\circ}$

$c = 77.6$

You are correct. Good job!
