28/x = 40/100
Cross multiply
40x = 28(100)
40x = 2800
Divide both sides by 40
x = 70 students
<h3>
Answer: 9.4 feet</h3>
Work Shown:
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(22) = x/25
x = 25*sin(22)
x = 9.3651648353978
x = 9.4
Your calculator needs to be in degree mode. One way to check is to compute sin(30) and you should get 0.5 or 1/2.
Answer choice should be b!
To represent the change in points, you can think of it in two ways:
1. You will go down 25 points for every wrong answer, so -25 + -25 + -25 would represent what is happening. They are all negative, so you keeping moving down in value.
2. You can also think of this as 3 groups of -25.
Both answers are -75. The answer is negative because the change was down in points.
-75 is the integer that represents this situation.
