Answer:

A. 4.4 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a Triangle: A = 1/2bh

sin∅ = opposite/hypotenuse

cos∅ = adjacent/hypotenuse

Step 1: Draw the altitude down the center of the triangle

- We should get a perpendicular bisector that creates 90° ∠ and JM = KM

- We should also see that we use sin∅ to find the <em>h</em> height of the triangle and that we use cos∅ to find length of JM to find <em>b</em> base of the triangle

Step 2: Find <em>h</em>

sin70° = h/3.7

3.7sin70° = h

h = 3.47686

Step 3: Find <em>b</em>

cos70° = JM/3.7

3.7cos70° = JM

JM = 1.26547

Step 4: Find entire length base JK

JM + KM = JK

JM = KM (Definition of Perpendicular bisector)

2(JM) = JK

2(1.26547) = 2.53095

b = 2.53095

Step 5: Find area

A = 1/2(3.47686)(2.53095)

A = 4.39988

A ≈ 4.4

Please help me with # 3

Answer:

The exterior angles need to equal 360 degrees.

You have 70 + 65 + 75 = 210

So 2x + 3x need to equal 360 - 210 = 150

5x = 150

x = 150 /5 = 30

2x = 2 *30 = 60

3x = x *30 = 90

An interior angle and an exterior angle need to equal 180 degrees.

The largest interior angle would need to correspond with the smallest exterior angle.

The smallest exterior angle is 2x which equals 60 degrees.

The largest interior angle would be 180 - 60 = 120 degrees.

The first painter can finish a paint job in 2 hours. The second painter can finish the same job in 8 hours. How long would it ta
vampirchik [111]

Answer: 1\frac{3}{5} hrs

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1st painter:  \frac{1}{2}

2nd painter: \frac{1}{8}

1st + 2nd = Together

\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{8} = \frac{1}{x}

\frac{1}{2}(8x) + \frac{1}{8}(8x) = \frac{1}{x}(8x)

4x + x = 8

5x = 8

 x = \frac{8}{5}

    = 1\frac{3}{5}

The following function describes the number of employees working at a company, In thousands, where trepresents the number of yea
NISA [10]

Consider the missing part of the question is "Select the correct statement.

A. The number of employees is increasing by 50% every year.

B. The number of employees is decreasing by 10% every year.

C. The number of employees is decreasing by 90% every year.

D. The number of employees is increasing by 90% every year."

Given:

The function is:

f(t)=1.5(0.90)^t

Where, f(t) is the number of employees working at a company, in thousands and t is the number of years since the company revised the benefits package.

To find:

The correct statement from the given options.

Solution:

The general exponential decay model is:

f(t)=a(1-r)^t         ...(i)

Where, a is the initial value, r is the rate of decay and t is the number of years.

We have,

f(t)=1.5(0.90)^t

It can be written as

f(t)=1.5(1-0.10)^t        ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

a=1.5,r=0.10

The initial value is 1.5 and the rate of decay is 0.10 or 10%. It means the number of employees is decreasing by 10% every year.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
