Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

m=marta's rope

d=dilbert's rope

3d-10=m

m+d=120

Then you can substitute equation 1 into the second one

(3d-10)+d=120

3d-10+d=120

4d-10=120

4d=130

d=32.5

m+d=120

m+32.5=120

m=120-32.5

A right triangle has a leg with a length of 21 units and a hypotenuse with a length of 42 units. Eunice states that because the
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

1. The measure of the remaining leg is 21\sqrt{3} units

2. The angle opposite the side with length 21 units measures 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem tells you the remaining side length is ...

  √(42² -21²) = 21√3 . . . . . matches the first statement, discounts statements 3 and 5

The angle opposite the 21-unit leg can be found from ...

  angle = arcsin(21/42) = 30° . . . . . matches the second statement, discounts statement 4.

Evaluate (-2 4/5)-(-1 5/6)​
iragen [17]

Answer:

(-29)/30

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

-(2 + 4/5) + (1 + 5/6)

Put 2 + 4/5 over the common denominator 5. 2 + 4/5 = (5×2)/5 + 4/5:

-(5×2)/5 + 4/5 + 1 + 5/6

5×2 = 10:

-(10/5 + 4/5) + 1 + 5/6

10/5 + 4/5 = (10 + 4)/5:

-(10 + 4)/5 + 1 + 5/6

10 + 4 = 14:

-14/5 + 1 + 5/6

Put (-14)/5 + 1 + 5/6 over the common denominator 30. (-14)/5 + 1 + 5/6 = (6 (-14))/30 + 30/30 + (5×5)/30:

(6 (-14))/30 + 30/30 + (5×5)/30

6 (-14) = -84:

(-84)/30 + 30/30 + (5×5)/30

5×5 = 25:

(-84)/30 + 30/30 + 25/30

-84/30 + 30/30 + 25/30 = (-84 + 30 + 25)/30:

(-84 + 30 + 25)/30
