Answer:

Hypotenuse = 14in

Adjacent = 12.12in

Step-by-step explanation:

Check attachment for diagram

Using SOH, CAH TOA method

According to SOH

Sin(theta) = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Given theta = 30°

Opposite = 7in

Sin30° = 7/Hypotenuse

Hypotenuse = 7/sin30°

Hypotenuse = 7/0.5

Hypotenuse = 14in

The other leg will be the adjacent say x

Using Pythagoras theorem to get x

Hyp² = Opp²+Adj²

14² = 7²+x²

x² = 14²-7²

x² = 196-49

x² = 147

x = √147

x = 12.12in

The value of the other leg is 12.12

This is a 30-60-90 triangle.
Therefore,
7 is A
the other leg is A√3
And the hypotenuse is 2A
So the other leg is 7√3 and the hypotenuse is 14

The school cafeteria sells three different types of sandwiches: chicken, turkey,

dusya [7]

Answer:

Number of chicken sandwiches = 150

Number of turkey sandwiches = 150

Number of roast beef sandwiches= 100

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the school cafeteriat makes and sells 3 different types of sandwiches which are; chicken, turkey and roast beef.

Let chicken be x, turkey be y and roast beef be z.

We are told they make 400 sandwiches in total.

Thus;

x + y + z = 400

However, we are told that the cafeteria makes same number of chicken and turkey sandwiches.

Thus, x = y

Thus;

Total is now;

x + x + z = 400

2x + z = 400 - - - (eq 1)

Now,we are told that chicken, turkey and roast beef sandwiches are sold for $3, $3.5 and $4 respectively. Also that the total amount realized from sales is $1375.

Thus;

3x + 3.5y + 4z = 1375

Since x = y. Thus;

3x + 3.5x + 4z = 1375

6.5x + 4z = 1375 - - - (eq 2)

Let's make z the subject in eq 1.

Thus;

z = 400 - 2x - - - (eq 3)

Putting 400 - 2x for z in eq(2) gives us;

6.5x + 4(400 - 2x) = 1375

6.5x + 1600 - 8x = 1375

1600 - 1375 = 8x - 6.5x

225 = 1.5x

x = 225/1.5

x = 150

Putting 150 for x in eq 3 gives;

z = 400 - 2(150)

z = 400 - 300

z = 100

Since x = y. Then y = 150

When 3 times a number is subtracted from 10, the result is the sum of the number and 22

Arada [10]

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Condition:

=> 10-3x = x+22

Let's Solve it:

=> -3x-x = 22-10

=> -2x = 12

Dividing both sides by -2

=> x = -6

Find the x-intercepts/roots of the polynomial function. Also, identify the degree of the polynomial

Mrac [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

roots=-2,-1,1,3

critical points=(-1.5,-3),(0,6),(2,-13)

absolute minimum=-13

End behavior :approaches +infinity

Relative max=6 at (0,6)

Relative min. =-3 at (-1.5,-3)

and -13 at (2,-13)

interval of increase=(-1.5,0)∪(2,∞)

interval of decrease=(-∞,-1.5)∪(0,4)

roots=-1,2

critical points=(0.5,10.5),(4,-10.5)

Abs.max/abs.min=not defined

End behavior:-∞ to +∞

Relative max=10.5

Relative min=-10.5

interval of increase=(-∞,0.5) ∪ (4,∞)

interval of decrease=(0.5,4)
