Answer:

20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

That is (60 - 50) / 50

= 10/50

= 1/5

To convert to a percent we multiply by 100:

= 20%.

I think it will be 10% because you invited 50 right? And 60 atended or was it 60 and 50 atended? Well either way I think it’s 10%

Write an equation of the line shown. Then use the equation to find the value of x when y=112

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

$y = 8x + 16$

$x = 12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points on the line (0, 16) and (3, 40), an equation for the line can be written using the slope-intercept line equation which takes the format $y = mx + b$ .

Where,

$m = slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

b = y-intercept or the point at which the line cuts the y-axis.

Let's find slope (m) using the slope formula:

Let,

$(0, 16) = (x_1, y_1)$

$(3, 40) = (x_2, y_2)$

$slope (m) = \frac{40 - 16}{3 - 0}$

$slope (m) = \frac{24}{3}$

$slope (m) = 8$

Find b. Substitute the values of x = 0, y = 16, and m = 8 in the slope-intercept formula to find b.

$y = mx + b$

$16 = 8(0) + b$

$16 = 0 + b$

$16 = b$

$b = 16$

Plug in the values of m and b into the slope-intercept formula to get the equation of the line.

$y = mx + b$

$y = 8x + 16$

Let's use the equation to find x when y = 112.

$y = 8x + 16$

Substitute y = 112 in the equation

$112 = 8x + 16$

$112 - 16 = 8x$

$96 = 8x$

Divide both sides by 8

$12 = x$

$x = 12$

What is the best estimate for the sum of 3/4 and 1/12

TEA [102]

Well first you would find a common denominator which would be 1w and then since you multiplied 4 by 3 to get to 12 you multiply 3 by 3 which is 9. So then you would have 9/12 + 1/12 which = 10/12

The trigonometric ratios show that the angle FHE is 48.59°.

<h3>RIGHT TRIANGLE</h3>

A triangle is classified as a right triangle when it presents one of your angles equal to 90º. The greatest side of a right triangle is called hypotenuse. And, the other two sides are called cathetus or legs.

The math tools applied for finding angles or sides in a right triangle are the trigonometric ratios or the Pythagorean Theorem.

The Pythagorean Theorem says: $(hypothenuse)^2=(leg_1)^2+(leg_2)^2$ . And the main trigonometric ratios are:

$sin(\alpha) =\frac{opposite \;leg }{hypotenuse} \\ \\ cos(\alpha) =\frac{adjacent\;leg }{hypotenuse} \\ \\ tan(\alpha) =\frac{sin(\alpha )}{cos(\alpha )}= \frac{opposite \;leg }{adjacent\;leg } \\ \\$

It is important to remember that the sum of internal angles for any triangle is 180°.

From the question, it is possible to see 2 right triangles (HGF and FHE).

You can find the hypotenuse of the triangle HGF from the trigonometric ratio: sen Θ

$sin45=\frac{opposite\; leg }{hypotenuse} =\frac{\sqrt8}{hypotenuse}\\ \\ \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =\frac{\sqrt{8} }{hypotenuse} \\ \\ \sqrt{2}*hypotenuse=2\sqrt{8} \\ \\ hypotenuse=\frac{2\sqrt{8} }{\sqrt{2}} =2\sqrt{4} =2*2=4$

The hypotenuse of triangle HGF is one of legs for the triangle FHE. The, you can find the angle FHE from the trigonometric ratio: tan β. Thus,

$sin \beta =\frac{opposite\; leg }{adjacent\; leg} =\frac{3}{4}\\ \\ sin \beta=\frac{3}{4}=0.84806\\ \\ arcsin\beta =48.59^{\circ \:}$
