Answer:

  C)  31.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of AB can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:

  AB² = AD² +BD²

  AB = √(25 +144) = 13

All of the right triangles are similar, so ...

  BC/BD = AB/AD

  BC = BD(AB/AD) = 12(13/5)

  BC = 31.2 . . . units

bija089 [108]

Answer:

sin O = \frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

given tan O = \frac{3}{4} = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

Then this is a right triangle with legs 3 and 4

Using Pythagoras' identity then the hypotenuse (h ) is

h = \sqrt{3^2+4^2} = \sqrt{25} = 5, hence

sin O = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{3}{5}

6(4+7k)=-3k-6(4+k) k=?
Alona [7]

Answer:

-16/15

Step-by-step explanation:

ok let's break this down.

6(4+7k) = 6*4 + 42k   (use distributive property)

3k - 6(4+k) = 3k - 24 - 6k     (do the same thing)

24 + 42k = 3k - 24 -6k  (let's simplify this a bit)

24+42k = -24-3k  (add 3k on both sides)

24+45k=-24 (subtract 24 on both sides)

45k = -48

k = -48/45 or -16/15

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

I believe he can go on 30 rides.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation would be 5 + .5x = 20

Because $5 to get in, plus $.50 per ride (x is number of rides you are solving for), and $20 is total amount you can spend.

So, .5x=15 so x=30
