Answer:

336.7 yards away from the cabin....

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle 30.7° is also the angle of the upper interior angle of the triangle (near the cabin)

Use the tan function:

opposite = 200 yards

adjacent = x

tan(30.7°) = (opposite / adjacent)

tan(30.7°) = 200 yards/x

x * tan(30.7°) = 200 yards

x = 200 yards/ tan(30.7°)

x= 200/ 0.594

x = 336.7 yards.

336.7 yards away from the cabin....

It’s 2/25 because 24 x 1/3/100 and you simplify the complex fraction so it’s 24 x 1/300 now reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 12 so now it’s 2x1/25 then calculate the product 2/25

If M is the midpoint of segment CD with CM = 3x + 1 and MD = 8x - 24, find CD.
ra1l [238]
X = 5 so that would mean if you plug it into both equations, segment CD would be 32 units long.

What is the percent of change from 8.0 to 8.2?
vodomira [7]
If you subtract the equation 8.0-8.2=-0.2. If you were to do the opposite then you would answer the equation 8.2-8.0=0.2. So therefore you have two options, -0.2 or 0.2. Good luck!

Joe was planning a business trip to Canada, so he went
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

2203.20 pesos

Step-by-step explanation:

Joe's original amount was $200

#We convert this amount to $CDN:

\$1=1.02\$CDN\\\\=200\times 1.02\\\\=204\$CDN

Joe now has to convert the Canadian dollars to Mexican pesos(at a rate of 10.8 pesos per $1 CDN):

=204\times10.8\\\\=2203.2

Hence, he gets a total of 2203.20 pesos in exchange for his Canadian dollars.
