Answer: a) It will be a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 75 and a vertical leg that is 62.
b) The length of the kite string is 75 (given in the problem). However, I believe you are looking for the distance from the spot on the ground beneath the kite to Janet. That is about 42.2 m.

To find the missing distance in the right triangle. You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem. I set it up and solve it below.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + 62^2 = 75^2
x^2 + 3844 = 5625
x^2 = 1781
x = 42.2 (about)

Jack works as a waiter and is keeping track of the tips he earns daily. about how much does jack have to earn in tips on sunday

OLga [1]

A mean is an arithmetic average of a set of observations. The amount that Jack has to earn in tips on Sunday if he wants to average $19 a day is $25.

A mean is an arithmetic average of a set of observations. it is given by the formula,

$\rm Mean=\dfrac{\text{Sum of all obervation}}{\text{Number of observation}}$

As it is given that Jack makes $12 on Monday, $14 on Tuesday, $18 on Wednesday, $16 on Thursday, $26 on Friday and $22 on Saturday. And we need to know how much he should earn on Sunday, so the average is $19. Therefore, we can write,

$\rm Mean=\dfrac{\text{Sum of all obervation}}{\text{Number of observation}}$

$19 = \dfrac{12+14+18+16+26+22+x}{7}\\\\133 = 108 + x\\\\133-108=x\\\\x = 25$
