Answer:

Correct answer is option D. 96.4 yd.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached figure for labeling of the given diagram.

ABC is a triangle with the following labeling:

A is the hole, B is the Tee and C is the point where the ball is.

Sides are labeled as:

a =255\ yd\\c = 305\ yd\\\angle B =17^\circ

To find:

Side b = ?

Solution:

Here, we have one angle and two sides . Third side of the triangle is to be found opposite to the given angle.

We can use cosine formula here to find the value of the unknown side.

cos B = \dfrac{a^{2}+c^{2}-b^{2}}{2ac}

Putting all the values:

cos 17 = \dfrac{255^{2}+305^{2}-b^{2}}{2\times 255\times 305}\\\Rightarrow 0.956 = \dfrac{65025+93025-b^{2}}{155550}\\\Rightarrow 148753.2= 158050-b^{2}\\\Rightarrow b^{2}= 158050-148753.2\\\Rightarrow b^{2}= 9296.795\\\Rightarrow b= 96.42\ yd

So, the distance between the Ball and hole is 96.42 yd

Correct answer is option D. 96.4 yd.

Clare made $160 babysitting last summer. She put the money in a savings account that pays 3% interest per year. If clare doesn't
AVprozaik [17]

We have been given that Clare made $160 babysitting last summer. She put the money in a savings account that pays 3% interest per year. If Clare doesn't touch the money in her account, she can find the amount she'll have the next year by multiplying her current amount 1.03.

We are asked to write an expression for the amount of money Clare would have after 30 years if she never withdraws money from her account.

We will use exponential growth function to solve our given problem.

An exponential growth function is in form y=a(1+r)^x, where

y = Final value,

a = Initial value,

r = Growth rate in decimal form,

x = Time.

3\%=\frac{3}{100}=0.03

We can see that initial value is $160. Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:

y=160(1+0.03)^x

y=160(1.03)^x

To find amount of money in Clare's account after 30 years, we need to substitute x=30 in our equation.

y=160(1.03)^{30}

Therefore, the expression 160(1.03)^{30} represents the amount of money that Clare would have after 30 years.

If f(x)=2x and g(x)= 1/x, what is the domain of (f*g) (x)
postnew [5]

Answer:

The domain of (f*g) (x) is the set of all real numbers; ( -∞, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

(f*g) (x) simply means we obtain the product of f(x) and g(x). We are given that;

f(x)=2x

g(x)= 1/x

(f*g) (x) = f(x) * g(x)

(f*g) (x) = 2x * 1/x = 2

This is a horizontal line defined everywhere on the real line. The domain of  (f*g) (x) is thus ( -∞, ∞)
