Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

tan (B) = Perpendicular / Base

For angle B:

Perpendicular = 5

Base = 5√3

tan (B) = Perpendicular / Base

tan (B) = 5/5√3

tan (B) = 1/√3

So, Option C is correct.

Answer:

The correct answer is third option

1/√3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we can see a right angled triangle ABC.

Right angled at C.

AB = 10

AC = 5

BC = 5√3

<u>Points to remember</u>

Tan θ = Opposite side/Adjacent side

<u>To find the value of tan(B)</u>

Tan B = Opposite side/Adjacent side

= AC/BC

= 5/5√3

= 1/√3

Therefore the value of tan(B) = 1/√3

Carrie has 40 more nickels than Joan has dimes. They both have the same amount of money. How many coins does each girl have? Wha

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Carrie and Joan have 80 nickels and 40 dimes, respectively, and each one has an amount of money of 4 US dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $x$ and $y$ the amounts of nickels and dimes that Carrie and Joan have, as $c$ the total amount of money that both Carrie and Joan have. A nickel is a five cent coin and a dime is a ten cent coin.

The following equations are constructed after a careful reading on statement:

Carrie's amount of money:

$0.05\cdot x = c$ (Eq. 1)

Joan's amount of money:

$0.10\cdot y = c$ (Eq. 2)

Relation between amounts of coins:

$x = y+40$ (Eq. 3)

First we eliminate $c$ by equalizing (Eq. 1) and (Eq. 2):

$0.05\cdot x = 0.10\cdot y$

Then, we reduce the resulting formula by (Eq. 3):

$0.05\cdot (y+40) = 0.10\cdot y$

$y+40 = 2\cdot y$

$y = 40$

And rest of variable are now determined:

$x = 40+40$

$x = 80$

$c = 0.05\cdot (80)$

$c = 4$

Carrie and Joan have 80 nickels and 40 dimes, respectively, and each one has an amount of money of 4 US dollars.
