Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do this systematically:

Four numbers: a, b, c, d

Whose mean is 85: \frac{a + b + c + d}{4} = 85

Whose largest number is 97: \frac{a + b + c + 97}{4} = 85

Lets solve for the other numbers:

a+b+c+97 = 85*4 = 340

340 - 97 = 243

a+b+c = 243

at this point it doesn't matter what the numbers are, they just need to add up to 243.

We can do 243÷3=81, which is our answer

In ΔWXY, x = 680 inches, w = 900 inches and ∠W=157°. Find all possible values of ∠X, to the nearest degree.
ikadub [295]

Given:

In ΔWXY, x = 680 inches, w = 900 inches and ∠W=157°.

To find:

The all possible values of ∠X, to the nearest degree.

Solution:

Law of Sines:

\dfrac{a}{\sin A}=\dfrac{b}{\sin B}=\dfrac{c}{\sin C}

For ΔWXY,

\dfrac{w}{\sin W}=\dfrac{x}{\sin X}=\dfrac{y}{\sin Y}

Now,

\dfrac{w}{\sin W}=\dfrac{x}{\sin X}

\dfrac{900}{\sin (157^\circ)}=\dfrac{680}{\sin X}

900\sin X=680\sin (157^\circ)

\sin X=\dfrac{680}{900}\sin (157^\circ)

\sin X=0.295219

X=\sin^{-1}(0.295219)

X=17.17067

X\approx 17

Therefore, the value of ∠X is 17 degrees.

Which statements are true based on the diagram? Check all that apply.
GrogVix [38]
First statement: False. Points K, M and N form a triangle.
Second statement: True. Points J, K, and Q are on the same line.
Third statement: False. KN and MQ intersect at N, not at R.
Fourth statement: False. JQ and KM intersect at K, but MQ does not pass through it.
Fifth statement: True. By definition, there is always only 1 line that can be drawn between 2 given points.
