Answer:
25 necklaces
Step-by-step explanation:
each necklace brings $16 profit (20-4=16)
400÷ 16= 25
so, at 25 necklaces, there will be enough profit to break even after paying for the advertising.
Answer: 6.82
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know the Law of Sines which is that Sin A/a = Sin B/b = Sin C/c. The Sin on top of the fraction is the angle, and the letter on the bottom is the side opposite from that angle.
Our first step is going to be finding the last angle. We have 2 angles already, but one that's missing. We know that all triangles' angles add up to 180, so we can add 68+40=108. Then do 180-108 to get 72. Now we know the third and final angle.
Ok so back to Law of Sines. Now we can plug into that equation. We only need Sin A/a = Sin B/b (It doesn't matter what order you put them in). And remember the lowercase letter at the bottom represents the OPPOSITE side from one of the angles. Since the problem wants the side opposite Sin 68, let's set up a proportion.
Set up we have what we know. We know one side, and opposite that is the angle we already solved for. Now we can cross multiply and end up with:
Since we want to isolate x, we can divide each side by Sin 72.
x= 7(Sin 68)/Sin 72
So now let's put it into the calculator:
7(Sin 68)=6.2853
Now let's divide 6.2853/Sin 72
And you should be left with 6.82 if you round it!
Answer:
x = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.
(2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180
4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify
x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)
x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.
Answer:
a) The percentage of adults who smoke are decreasing with time. b) the equation that best described this data is y=-0.3364x+22.809 (R^2=0.859) in which y is the percentage of adults who smoke and x the number of years. c) the percentage of adults who smoke will be 19.8% and it will not meet the expected 12%, it would take 32 years to reach that value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data can be plotted to which years is the independent variable and percentage of adults who smoke is the dependent variable. The linear trendline that described this data has a negative slope which indicates that the percentage of adults is decreasing with time. In order to determine if the OSH target is being met, the x is replaced by 9 which is the goal period of nine years. The y is 19% which is higher than the 12% goal. In order to know the period it will take to the reach the goal of 12%, the y is replaced by 12 in the curve and the x is the answer in years = 32 years.
