the answer is, c) distributive
Remark
You are dealing with a right angle triangle. You can use one of Sin(x) Cos(x) or Tan(x). Since the Hypotenuse is involved and since you are given the adjacent side, Cos(71) is what you will need.
Solution
H = BC
Cos(x) = adjactent / hypotenuse
Cos(71) = 6.3 / H Multiply both sides by H
H * Cos(71) = 6.3 Divide by Cos(71)
H = 6.3 / cos(71) Cos(71) = 0.32557
H = 6.3 / 0.32557 Divide
H = BC = 19.351 Answer
x and x+4 are the numbers
3x=2(x+4)
3x=2x+8
3x-2x=8
x=8
x+4=12
2. Eight cards are marked : (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10), such that each card has
exactly one of theses numbers. A card is picked without looking.
Determine the probability of choosing a number greater than 5. (decimal)
A .625
B 1.75
C .50
D .60
The answer is C.
3,500,000 - 2,800,000 = 700,000
So the magazine needs 700,000 readers to meet their goal.
Hope that helps you. :-)
