Jamie has 8/10 of a candy bar, and wants to split it into an unknown number of 1/3 pieces. Our objective is to find the number of pieces.

Let the number of pieces be x.

To know the portion of the candy bar each piece is, we divide the total portion of the candy bar by the number of pieces.

So (8/10)/x = 1/3

Multiply each side by x

8/10 = 1/3x

Divide each side by 1/3 so we can have the variable x on a side, and its value on another.

(8/10)/(1/3) = (1/3x)/(1/3)

(8/10) / (1/3) = x

Dividing 2 fractions is equal to multiplying the first fraction by the inverse of the second:

(8/10) / (1/3) = x

(8/10) * 3 = x

24/10 = x

x = 2.4


Since this not a whole number, Jamie can make 2 full 1/3 pieces, and a piece of 1/10.

Or, you can easily say that Jamie can make 2.4 pieces of 1/3.

1. Name the formula for the Law of Sines? Can it be written any other way? What do the letters stand for? When you are solving t
EastWind [94]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Sine rule is

\frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{b}{sinB} = \frac{c}{sinC}

Where a, b and c are the sides of a triangle and A, B , C are the angles opposite the corresponding sides, that is

A is opposite side a, B is opposite side b, C is opposite side c

The sine rule is usually applied using a pair of the ratios, where

2 sides and an angle are known to find an unknown angle.

1 side and 2 angles are known to find an unknown side.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2

There are 2 forms of the Cosine rule

(a) a² = b² + c² - (2bc cosA ) ← to calculate an unknown side

(b) cosA = \frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc} ← to calculate an unknown angle

(a) is used given 2 sides of a triangle b and c are known with A being the included angle ( the angle between the 2 sides )

(b) is used when the 3 sides a, b and c are known

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3

If the angle A = 90° then cos90° = 0 and formula (a) becomes

a² = b² + c² ← that is Pythagoras' identity
