Answer:

D. 207.84 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The side we are given is adjacent to, or beside, the 60° angle.  The side we are finding the measure of is opposite this angle.

The ratio of opposite to adjacent is tangent; setting up the tangent equation, we have

tan 60 = x/120

Multiply both sides by 120:

120(tan 60) = (x/120)*120

120(tan 60) = x

207.84 = x

dimaraw [331]
-9x+5<17 answer x >-4/3 how I do to it
subtract -5 from both side and you get 12. so it be -9x<12
than you divide -9 from both side because you want x by it self you get -4/3 but you have to flip the sign since is negavite and you will be left over with ×>-4/3

Jeanie completed a 27 mile duathlon (a race that is a combination of running and biking) in exactly 2 hours. she ran an average
-Dominant- [34]
<span>Let x = the miles Jeanie ran y = the miles Jeanie biked T = 2 hours total time for the duathlon v1 = 8.5 mph Jeanie's running speed and v2 = 16 mph Jeanie's biking speed But T = Jean's time she ran t1 + time she biked t2 I. e t1 + t2 = 2 So we have average speed v2 when she biked = distance (y) / time (t2) Distance y = v2 * t2 = 16 * t2 and distance when she ran x = 8.5 * t1 Since she covered 27 miles while running and biking we have x + y = 27 8.5t1 + 16t2 =27 ------(1) t1 + t2 = 2 --------------(2) The simultaneous equation gives us t1 = 2/3 and t2 which is time she biked = 4/3 So 4/3 = 1 1/3. Which is 1 hour 20 minutes</span>
