Sin 30° = 1/2 = x/8
then x = 4

sin 60° = √3/2 = y/8
then y = 4√3

so the length of the longer leg is 4√3

1.) Substitute into the inequality is it true:
1 < 2(-4)+5
1 < -3 False so the answer is b. No
2.) since y < the expression for the line, shade below

We need the length of the sides.
AB=√(2-(-2))²+(4-1)²=√16+9=√25=5; BC=√4²+0=4; CA=√0+9=3. AB+BC+CA=5+4+3=12.

At noon Joyce drove to the lake at 30 miles per hour. but she made the long walk back home at 4 miles per hour. How long did she

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

let d = distance to the lake

Using: time = distance ÷ speed

Create expressions for the time it takes for each journey:

Drive: $t_1=\dfrac{d}{30}$

Walk: $t_2=\dfrac{d}{4}$

If total time = 17 hours

$\implies t_1+t_2=17$

$\implies \dfrac{d}{30}+\dfrac{d}{4}=17$

$\implies \dfrac{17d}{60}=17$

$\implies 17d=1020$

$\implies d=\dfrac{1020}{17}$

$\implies d=60$

Therefore she walked 60 miles
