Last month Maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. Let x re

present the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. If she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times Maria hiked each trail?

Number of times she climbed 5-mile mountain trail = x
Number of times she climbed 10-mile trail = y
total distance of the 5-mile mountain trail will be = 5*x =5x
total distance of the 10-mile mountain trail will be  = 10*y = 10y
equation  that can be used to find the number of times she hiked each trail is therefore
5x + 10y = 90

Answer:

  • b = 757.7 m
  • A = 17.2°
  • C = 14.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the law of cosines, you can find the length of side b to be ...

  b = √(a² +c² -2ac·cos(B))

  b = √(184041 +128164 -307164cos(148.5°)) ≈ √574105.36

  b ≈ 757.7

__

From the law of sines, you can find the measure of angle C to be ...

  C = arcsin(c/b·sin(B))

  C ≈ arcsin(358/757.7·sin(148.5°)) ≈ arcsin(0.246872)

  C ≈ 14.3°

  A = 180° -148.5° -14.3°

  A = 17.2°

Some graphing calculators have built-in triangle-solving functions. Apps are available for the purpose for phone or tablet. The screenshot shows a web site that does a nice job of solving the triangle.

The probability that a student will take loans to pay for their undergraduate education is 0.85, and the probability that a stud
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The probability that a student will go to graduate school and take loans to pay for their undergraduate education is P=0.111.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

  • The probability that a student will take loans to pay for their undergraduate education is 0.85

        P(L)=0.85.

  • The probability that a student goes to graduate school, <em>given that the student took loans to pay for their undergraduate education,</em> is 0.13.

        P(G|L)=0.13

What is the probability that a student will go to graduate school and take loans to pay for their undergraduate education?

Out of the population of students, a proportion of 0.85 takes loans for undergraduate studies. Out of this, a proportion of 0.13 goes to graduate school.

This probability can then be calculated as:

P(G\&L)=P(L)\cdot P(G|L)=0.85\cdot0.13=0.1105

Triangle ABC has the angle measures shown. Measure of angle A = (2 x) degrees. Measure of angle B = (5 x) degrees. Measure of an
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

<h3>             The true statement is the first:</h3><h2>         Measure of angle A = 20 degrees</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measure of the interior angles in a triangle is 180°

m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

(2x)° + (5x)° + (11x)° = 180°

   (18x)° = 180°

       x = 10

A = (2×10)° = 20°     {<u>the first statement is true}</u>

B = (5×10)° = 50°      {the second statement is false}

C = (11×10)° = 110°

m∠A + m∠B = 20° + 50° = 70° ≠ 90°   {the third statement is false}

m∠A + m∠C = 20° + 110° = 130° ≠ 120°   {the fourth statement is false}

7. For homework Javier has to solve the equation below.
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

C 10⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

7.75n = 77500

Javier has to solve for n

He can multiply through by 100 to get;

775n = 7750000

He can now divide through by 775 to obtain:

n =  \frac{7750000}{775}

He can now easily simplify to get:

n = 10000

We rewrite as a power to get:

n =  {10}^{4}
