AB is the longest side, so ∠C is the largest angle.
use law of cosine: 16²=9²+12²-2*9*12cosC
216cosC=81+144-256=-31
cosC=-0.14352
C≈98

Answer:

The measure of the largest angle in ΔABC = 98°

Step-by-step explanation:

The longest side in the given ΔABC is AB

And, The angle opposite to the longest side is largest

⇒ ∠C is the largest angle. in the ΔABC

So, we need to find the measure of ∠C

Now, Using law of cosine in the given ΔABC :

⇒ 16² = 9² + 12² - 2 × 9 × 12·cos C

⇒ 216·cos C = 81 + 144 - 256

⇒ 216·cos C = -31

⇒ cos C = -0.14352

⇒ m∠C ≈ 98°

Hence, The measure of the largest angle in ΔABC = 98°

Jenny and Laura share £30 in the ratio of 3:2 work out how much money jenny gets​
Brut [27]

Answer:

Jenny gets €18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jenny gets 3 of every Laura's 2. First you add together both numbers in the ratio. 3+2=5. Then you divide the constant, 30, by the sum, 5. 30/5=6. Then you multiply each number of the ratio by the quotient. 3 x 6=18.

A train leaves the station at time = 0. Traveling at a constant speed, the train travels 330 kilometers in 3 hours. Answers part
amid [387]

Answer:

The function that relates the distance traveled d to the time t is

f(t) = 110t, where d = f(t)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we were told that the train is At a constant speed, the train travels 330 kilometers in 3 hours

We were told to write function that relates the distance traveled d to the time t, we can do this by writing a linear equation with those functions

Since we are told that the train travels 330 kilometers in 3 hours, then we can say the train travel (330/3) kilometers in 1 hour which means it travel 110 kilometers in 1 hour

Then d= 110t---------------eqn(1)

If if t = 0, then d = 0, as well since at t=0 the train is at the station

At t = 1 then d = 110.

From equation (1) d can be replaced by f(t) then we have

f(t) = 110t----------------eqn(2)

Now we replace d by f (t), because d = f t):

f(t) = 120t

Therefore, The function that relates the distance traveled d to the time is f(t) = 120t
