Remember the rules of Sohcahtoa (Sine, cosine, tangent). For this problem we take the cosine of 38 because the labeled sides are the adjacent leg and the hypotenuse.
Cos(38)=79/x
Cosine of 38 is about 0.7880
0.7880=79/x
Next we multiply both sides by the denominator
(x) 0.7880=79 (x)
Then divide.
<u>0.7880x</u>= <u>79</u>
0.7880 0.7880
X=100.25

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The number is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
We will set up an equation where 4/5 is being multiply by the number to get 32. we will represent that number by x
4/5 * x = 32 solve for x
4/5x = 32
0.8x = 32
x = 40
Use dimensional analysis. 1 lb = 16 oz will be the conversion factor. 162 oz x (1 lb/16 oz) = 10.125 lb.
