Tara runs an amusement park ride and needs to count the people who get on the ride. At the beginning of her shift, 132 people ha
d ridden the ride. The table shows the total number of riders for several times during Tara's shift.

Hi. You could easily find the slope-intercept form equation if you plot the points and do data fitting. You can use this with a software like MS Excel. The figure is attached in the image. Hence, the equation is y = 33x + 132, where y is the number of riders and x is the number of hours of Tara's shift.

Answer: The correct option are B, C and D.
Explanation:
The law of sine states that,
Where A, B, C are interior angles of the triangle and a, b, c are sides opposite sides of these angles respectively as shown in below figure. Only AAS or SSA types problems can be solved by using Law of sine.
Since we need the combination of two sides and one angle or two angles and one side.
In option A, the two consecutive angles are known and a side which makes the second angle with base side is known, therefore the first angle is opposite to the given side, so the law of sine can be used for AAS problems.
Therefore, option A is incorrect.
In option B a side is known and two inclined angle on that line are known. But to use Law of sine we want the line and angle which in not inclined on that line, therefore the ASA problem can not be solved by Law of sine and the option B is correct.
In option C two sides and their inclined angle is known. But to use Law of sine we want the side and angle which in not inclined on that line, therefore the SAS problem can not be solved by Law of sine and the option C is correct.
In option D three sides are given but any angle is not given, therefore the SSS problem can not be solved by Law of sine and the option D is correct.
