- tan∅ = opposite over adjacent
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
Angle = 28°
Opposite leg of angle = 8 ft
Adjacent leg of angle = x ft
<u>Step 2: Find </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute: tan28° = 8/x
- Multiply <em>x </em>on both sides: xtan28° = 8
- Divide tan28° on both sides: x = 8/tan28°
- Evaluate: x = 15.0458
- Round: x ≈ 15.0 ft
Answer:
B (√6)/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The smallest multiplier that will make the denominator of the fraction into a perfect square is 2, so you have ...
_____
Answer choice D is also a correct rationalization of the denominator, but is not simplified as far as it can be. √24 = 2√6, so a factor of 2 can be cancelled from numerator and denominator, giving answer choice B.
Step-by-step explanation:
If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80
Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.
We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.
We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.
x = 80 - y
.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12
9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12
.08y = 2.4
y = 30
x = 80 - 30 = 50
Livia eats a chicken drumstick with 11 grams of protein. She also eats x cheese sticks, each with 7 grams of protein. The table shows y , the total number of grams of protein that Livia will consume if she eats x cheese sticks. Livia may eat only part of a cheese stick, so x may not always be a whole number.
