Ella has to add 32.833 lbs of water to get 33.333 lbs of syrup.

<u>Solution:</u>

Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. Let x lbs be the amount of water Ella should add to get the 1.5% of syrup,

\Rightarrow0.5\text{ lbs }- 1.5\%

\Rightarrow x+0.5\text{ lbs }- 100\%

On writing the proportion,

\Rightarrow\dfrac{0.5}{x+0.5}=\dfrac{1.5}{100}\\ \\\Rightarrow0.5\cdot 100=(x+0.5)\cdot 1.5\\ \\\Rightarrow50=1.5x+0.75\\ \\\Rightarrow1.5x=50-0.75\\ \\\Rightarrow1.5x=49.25\\ \\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{49.25}{1.5}\approx 32.833\ lbs

To get 1.5% syrup Ella should add 32.833 lbs of water. The total weight of syrup is 33.333 lbs.

In ΔEFG, the measure of ∠G=90°, EF = 95 feet, and FG = 26 feet. Find the measure of ∠F to the nearest degree.
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

74.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • ∠G=90° => ΔEFG is a right triangle
  • EF = 95 feet
  • FG = 26 feet

Use sine law to find ∠F

As we know:

Sin(GEF)/ GF = Sin(EGF)/EF

<=> Sin(GEF) / 26 = Sin(90)/95

<=>Sin(GEF) / 26 = 1/95

<=> Sin(GEF)  = 26/95

<=> ∠GEF ≈ 15.8°

=> ∠F = 180° - ∠G - ∠GEF

∠F = 180° - 90° - 15.8° = 74.4°

What is the length of BC? If your answer is not an integer, leave it in simplest radical form?
nexus9112 [7]
ANSWER

|BC|=12\sqrt{2}\: ft

EXPLANATION

The given right triangle is an isosceles triangle because

m \: < \: B = 45 \degree = m \: < \: C
This implies that,

|AB|=12ft=|AC|

From the Pythagoras Theorem,

|BC|^2=|AB|^2+|AC|^2

|BC|^2= {12}^{2} + {12}^{2}

|BC|^2=2 \times {12}^{2}

|BC| = \sqrt{ {12}^{2} \times 2 }

|BC|=12\sqrt{2}\: ft
