Answer:

m∠A ≈ 43°

m∠B ≈ 55°

mBC ≈ 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Law of Sines: $\frac{a}{sinA} =\frac{b}{sinB} =\frac{c}{sinC}$

Step 1: Find m∠B

$\frac{29}{sin82} =\frac{24}{sinB}$

Step 2: Solve for ∠B

29sinB = 24sin82°

sinB = 24sin82°/29

B = sin⁻¹(24sin82°/29)

B = 55.038°

Step 3: Find m∠A

180 - (55.038 + 82)

180 - 137.038

m∠A = 42.962°

Step 4: Find BC

$\frac{29}{sin82} =\frac{BC}{sin42.962}$

Step 5: Solve for BC

29sin42.962° = BCsin82°

BC = 29sin42.962°/sin82°

BC = 19.9581

19. A teacher tells 36 students to form 4 equal groups. Write and solve a

olchik [2.2K]

4 x = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the groups have an equal number of students, we assume that each of the groups has x number of students.

Therefore since there is x number of students in each of the 4 groups, there is 4 * x number of total students in all groups combined.

Since the question already indicates that there are a total of 36 students in the class, then we can indicate that..

4x = 36

.) A florist wishes to make bouquets of mixed spring flowers. Each bouquet is to be made up of tulips at $10 a bunch and daffodi

LekaFEV [45]

We have the following:

let x a tulips

let y daffodils

therefore:

$\begin{gathered} x+y=15\rightarrow x=15-y \\ 10x+7y=(x+y)8\rightarrow10x+7y=120 \end{gathered}$

solving:

$\begin{gathered} 10\cdot(15-y)+7y=120 \\ 150-10y+7y=120 \\ 10y-7y=150-120 \\ 3y=30 \\ y=\frac{30}{3}=10 \end{gathered}$

for x:

$x=15-10=5$

Therefore, the answer is 5 tulips and 10 daffodils

let x a 30% silver

let y a 55% silver

$\begin{gathered} x+y=800\rightarrow x=800-y \\ 30x+55y=40\cdot(x+y)\rightarrow30x+55y=32000 \end{gathered}$

solving:

$\begin{gathered} 30\cdot(800-y)+55y=32000 \\ 24000-30y+55y=32000 \\ 25y=32000-24000 \\ y=\frac{8000}{25} \\ y=320 \end{gathered}$

for x:

$x=800-320=480$

Therefore, the answer is 480 pounds of 30% silver and 320 pounds of 55% silver

You are a contestant on a game show called “Bargain or No Bargain.” You are presented with three briefcases, which contain rewar

Orlov [11]

Based on the given values of briefcases presented, there is only a little chance that you would get the briefcase with the $500,000 considering that there are three. Therefore, the mathematically correct decision for this and why would be option A. Take the $160,000, because it is greater than the expected value of the briefcases. Hope this answer helps.
