Answer:

<em>15 people</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

since Raul and his friends each weigh 1/20 ton,

and the total weight reads 3/4 ton

The total number pf people on the scale will be:

<em>The total weight of Raul and his friends divided by their individual weight</em>

==> (3/4 ton) ÷ (1/20 ton)

= 3/4 X 20/1 = <em>15 people</em>

A ball is tossed between three friends. The first toss is 8.6 feet, the second is 5.8 feet, and the third toss is 7.5 feet, whic
Rainbow [258]

angles formed by these tosses are  79.45, 59.02 and 41.53 degrees to the nearest hundredth.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here , We have a triangle with sides of length 8.6 feet, 5.8 feet and 7.5 feet.

The Law of Cosines (also called the Cosine Rule) says:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab (cosx)

Using the Cosine Rule to find the measure of the angle opposite the side of length 8.6 feet:

⇒ c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab (cosx)

⇒ c^2 -a^2 - b^2 = -2ab (cosx)

⇒ (cosx) =\frac{ c^2 -a^2 - b^2}{ -2ab}

⇒ (cosx) =\frac{(8.6^2 - 5.8^2 - 7.5^2)}{ ( -2(5.8)7.5)}

⇒ (cosx) =0.18310

⇒ cos^{-1}(cosx) = cos^{-1}(0.18310)

⇒ x = 79.45

The Law of Sines (or Sine Rule) is very useful for solving triangles:

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

We can now find another angle using the sine rule:

⇒\frac{ 8.6 }{ sin 79.45} = \frac{7.5}{ sin Y}

⇒sin Y = \frac{(7.5 (sin 79.45))}{  8.6}

⇒Y = 59.02 degrees

So, the third angle =180 - 79.45 - 59.02 = 41.53 degrees.

Therefore, angles formed by these tosses are  79.45, 59.02 and 41.53 degrees to the nearest hundredth.

What is the slope of line a? <br><br>​
emmainna [20.7K]
<h3>Answer:  -1/4  (choice C)</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

Start at the point (0,1). This is the y intercept, which is where the graph crosses the y axis.

Then move down 1 and over to the right 4 spaces. We arrive at (4,0) which is the x intercept.

The process of "down 1, over to the right 4" can be thought of like this

rise/run = -1/4

rise = -1

run = 4

A rise of -1 indicates we go down 1 unit

The run of 4 means we move to the right 4 units

So that's why slope = rise/run = -1/4

-------------------------------------------------------

Here's another approach using the slope formula:

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (0-1)/(4-0)

m = -1/4

I used the two points (0,1) and (4,0) as (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) respectively. This formula basically says "subtract the y coordinates, subtract the x coordinates in the same order, then divide the differences y over x".

-------------------------------------------------------

Side note: The line moving downhill, as we read from left to right, indicates a negative slope.

Andrei [34K]
The answer is 60. You can find this out by finding the least common multiple of 10 and 12, which is 60 because 10x6=60 and 12x5=60. Hope this helps :)
