Answer:

17.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

(refer to the attached for reference)

since the given triangle is a right triangle (i.e with one of the angles being 90 deg), we can use trigonometry to determine the missing side.

In our case, we are given ∠ABC = 68° and the length of its adjacent side AB = 7 cm.

From trigonometry, the following relationship may be formed:

tan (68°) = opposite length / adjacent length

tan (68°) = AC / AB

tan (68°) = AC / 7 (multiply both sides by 7)

7 tan (68°) = AC (rearrange)

AC = 7 tan (68°) (solve using calculator)

AC = 17.3256

AC = 17.3 cm (1 dec pl)

Riley is packing 144 pencils, 120 files, and 108 notebooks into as many boxes as possible. Find the greatest number of boxes tha

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Greatest number of boxes to pack all items into them equally will be 12 where each box contain 10,12,9 files, notebooks and pencils respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the greatest number of boxes that Riley could pack the items into, we have to find the HCF of 144, 120 and 108.

We will find the HCF through prime factorization.

("Prime Factorization" is finding which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number)

Step 1:

Find the prime factorization of each of the given numbers.

Step 2:

The product of all common prime factors is the HCF of the given numbers.

First number is 120:

120 = 2*2*2*3*5

Second number is 144:

144 = 2*2*2*2*3*3

And last number is 108:

108 = 2*2*3*3*3

Now we will match the numbers which are common in all three values. In other words we will find the common factors.

The common factors in 120,108 and 144 are:

2*2*3

If we multiply 2*2*3 we get 12

Hence, HCF of ( 120,108,144 ) = 12

Therefore, Greatest number of boxes to pack all items into them equally will be 12 where each box contain 10,12,9 files, notebooks and pencils respectively.

Ivy checks to see how many people are waiting in line. She notes that there are 120 possible line arrangements for the people th

Marina86 [1]

The total number of persons standing in the line waiting for ordering pizza are 5.

Explanation:

There are 5 people in total so the first place can be occupied by any of the 5 persons.

Secondly the second place in the line can be occupied by any of the 4 persons left.

Then the third place will be occupied by any remaining 3 persons as the front two places are already occupied.

Similarly the fourth place will be taken by any of the remaining two people. And lastly the last place will b filled by the last remaining person.

So the total number of ways will be 5*4*3*2*1 = 120 ways that is given in the question.

Is this table linear or exponential what us the slope and what is the equation ?

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

this table is exponential

Step-by-step explanation:

the way we can tell this is because we can find a common ratio of 4. we know this because linear tables have a common difference exponential tables have a common ratio. i found this answer by dividing 32,768 and 8,192

32,768/8,192 = 4

you can find a linear function by subtracting point 1 and point 2.
