Answer:

Distance=3.1 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine how many meters make a mile

The conversion rate expression is;

1 mile=1.60934 kilometers

Step 2: Convert 5 km to miles

Using the expression below;

Distance in miles=distance in kilometers/1.60934

where;

distance in kilometers=5 km

replacing;

Distance in miles=5/1.60934

Distance in miles=3.10686 miles

Step 3: Round off to nearest tenth of a mile

Nearest tenth of a mile=1/10=0.1 , the same as rounding of to the nearest 1 decimal place

Distance 3.10686 miles rounded off to 1 decimal place=3.1 miles

Distance=3.1 miles

Answer:

6.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Sine Law we know that

\dfrac{a}{SinA}=\dfrac{b}{SinB}=\dfrac{c}{SinC}

Using your figure let's assign sides and angles:

A=? B = 60° C = 70°

a = 5 b = ? c = x

If we put that into our formula:

\dfrac{5}{Sin?}=\dfrac{?}{Sin60}=\dfrac{x}{Sin70}

Notice that we have too many unknowns. We need to complete at least one ratio to do this, so how do we do this?

Notice we have 2 angles given, so we solve for the third angle. The sum of all angles in any triangle is always 180°

∠A + ∠B + ∠C= 180°

∠A + 60° + 70° = 180°

∠A + 130° = 180°

∠A = 180° - 130°

∠A = 50°

Now we can use this to solve for x.

\dfrac{5}{Sin50}=\dfrac{x}{Sin70}\\\\\dfrac{(5)(Sin70)}{Sin50} = x\\\\\dfrac{4.6985}{0.7660}=x\\\\6.1338 =x

So the closest answer would be 6.13

Assuming it’s out of 100 it would 70 games they have won, but if it provides a number you will need to provide that for the correct answer.
