Answer:
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have an equilateral triangle. All three sides have the same length, 2. Therefore, the interior angles are all equal to 60 degrees.
Therefore, 6 - 9x = 60, and -9x = 54. Dividing both sides by -9 results in
x = -54/9, or x = -6.
Answer:
31.7 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of the triangle is calculated as
A = 
absinC
where a, b are the 2 sides given and C the angle between them
∠ C = 180° - (72 + 59)° = 180° - 131° = 49° , thus
A = 0.5 × 12 × 7 × sin49° ≈ 31.7 cm² ( to 1 dec. place )
(-2)(3*4+2(-2)(-5)) = -2(12+20) = -2(32) = -64
Answer:
...
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 2 +5x - 10 +4x = 180
16x - 12 = 180
16x = 168
x = 10.5
now plug it in
7(10.5) - 2 = 71.5°
4(10.5) = 42°
5(10.5) -10 = 42.5°
The problem statement gives you the relationship between their speeds, and it gives you information you can use to find their total speed. You solve this by finding the total speed, then the proportion of that belonging to Bill.
The total speed is (120 mi)/(3 h) = 40 mi/h.
The speed ratio is ...
... Bill : Joe = 3 : 1
so the speed ratio Bill : Total is ...
... 3 : (3+1) = 3:4.
Bill's speed is (3/4)×(40 mi/h) = 30 mi/h.
