orning. If the entire trip was 112 miles long, how far did they ride in the morning and how far in the afternoon?

Answer:

27 miles in the morning and 85 miles in the afternoon.

Explanation:

Let m be the number of miles they rode in the morning.  They rode 4 more than 3 times this many in the afternoon; this gives us the expression

3m+4

to represent the miles ridden in the afternoon.

Together they rode 112 miles; this means we add the morning miles, m, to the afternoon miles, 3m+4, and get 112:

m+3m+4 = 112

Combine like terms:

4m+4 = 112

Subtract 4 from each side:

4m+4-4= 112-4

4m = 108

Divide both sides by 4:

4m/4 = 108/4

m = 27

They rode 27 miles in the morning.

That means in the afternoon, they rode

3m+4 = 3(27)+4 = 81+4 = 85 miles.

X+3x+4=112
x=27
3(27)+4=85

Answer:

33.16ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Sin 56° = x / 40ft

0.829 = x / 40ft

x = 40ft * 0.829

x = 33.16ft

The monthly charge for a waste collection service is 1830 dollars for 100 kg of waste and 2460 dollars for 135 kg of waste. (a)
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

C=18w+30

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The monthly charge for a waste collection service is 1830 dollars for 100 kg of waste

So, (x_1,y_1)=(100,1830)

We are also given that The monthly charge for a waste collection service is 2460 dollars for 135 kg of waste.

So, (x_2,y_2)=(135,2460)

We are supposed to find a linear model for the cost, C, of waste collection as a function of the number of kilograms, w.

So, we will use two point slope form :

Formula : y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

Substitute the values

y-1830=\frac{2460-1830}{135-100}(x-100)

y-1830=18(x-100)

y-1830=18x-1800

y=18x-1800+1830

y=18x+30

y denotes the cost

x denotes the weight

So, Replace y with C and x with w

C=18w+30

So, a linear model for the cost, C, of waste collection as a function of the number of kilograms, w is C=18w+30

Given sinθ=- 3/5 and cscθ=-5/3 in quadrant III, find the value of other trigonometric functions using a Pythagorean Identity. Sh
Yakvenalex [24]
Let ABC be a triangle in the 3rd quadrant, right-angled at B. 
 So, AB-> Perpendicular BC -> Base AC -> Hypotenuse. 
Given: sinθ=-3/5 cosecθ=-5/3 
 According to Pythagorean theorem, square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of square of the other two sides.
 Therefore in triangle ABC, 〖AC〗^2=〖AB〗^2+〖BC〗^2 ------
--(1)
 Since sinθ=Perpendicular/Hypotenuse ,
 AC=5 and AB=3
 Substituting these values in equation (1)
 
〖BC〗^2=〖AC〗^2-〖AB〗^2

 ă€–BC〗^2=5^2-3^2
 

 ă€–BC〗^2=25-9

 ă€–BC〗^2=16

 BC=4 units

 Since the triangle is in the 3rd quadrant, all trigonometric ratios, except tan
and cot are negative.
 So,cosθ=Base/Hypotenuse Cosθ=-4/5 
 secθ=Hypotnuse/Base secθ=-5/4 
 tanθ=Perpendicular/Base tanθ=3/4  
 cotθ=Base/Perpendicular cotθ=4/3
