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....

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

$11.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The regular price of the T-Shirt is $14 dollars. The discount is 20% off.

20 percent of 14:

14 * 0.2 = 2.80

You would save $2.80.

14 - 2.80 = 11.20

The discount price should be $11.20.

Hope this helps.

Jasmine is in a bicycle race. She has already biked 10 miles and is now biking at a rate of 18 miles per hour. Write and equatio
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

y = 18x + 10

slope = 18

y-intercept = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation given in the problem is linear and can be represented using slope-intercept form of a linear equation: y = mx + b, where 'm' is equal to the slope, 'b' is equal to the y-intercept, 'x' is the number of hours and 'y' is the total number of miles.  

Given that Jasmine has already biked 10 miles, her initial value, or y-intercept would be 10.  Since she is now biking at a rate of 18 miles per hour, her rate of change, or slope, would be 18.  

Using these values for 'm' and 'b': y = 18x + 10

Simplify the expression. Explain each step:<br> 1. 3.5 + (x + 2.7)<br> 2. (8 x k) x 4
barxatty [35]
In a way, you are adding like terms.
3.5 + 2.7 = 6.2, therefore making the answer 6.2 + x

The brackets can be ignored so you are really just asked 8 x 4 x k. 8 x 4 =32 so you end up with 32k
