Part A.
Before you can write any sort of expression, you need to define variables. "grapes g" is not a definition, so the exercise seems meaningless as written. It seems the intent is to ...
let g, b, p represent the numbers of pounds of grapes, bananas, and pears, respectively.
Then, the total cost of some weight of fruit is
2.19g + 0.59b + 1.49p
Part B.
For g=3, b=3, p=2, the expression evaluates to
2.19*3 +0.59*3 +1.49*2 = 11.32
The total cost of 3 pounds of grapes, 3 pounds of bananas, and 2 pounds of pears is ...
$11.32
Answer:
sin A = 12/13
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
sin theta = opposite side/ hypotenuse
sin A = 12/13
Answer:
a. 80.83 ft b. 40.42 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h = height of pole = 70 ft, L = length of cable and x = distance of cable on ground to pole and Ф = angle between cable and ground.
a) How long is the cable?
Since L, h and x form a right-angled triangle with angle Ф and h being the opposite side to Ф and L being the hypotenuse side, by trigonometric ratios,
sinФ = h/L
L = h/sinФ
L = 70 ft/sin60°
L = 70 ft/0.8660
L = 80.83 ft
b) How far from the pole should the cable be attached to the ground?
Since L, h and x form a right-angled triangle with angle Ф and h being the opposite side to Ф and x being the adjacent side, by trigonometric ratios,
tanФ = h/x
x = h/tanФ
x = 70 ft/tan60°
x = 70 ft/1.7321
x = 40.42 ft
