Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's find the area of the triangle:

Area = (Base * Height)/2

Area = (20 * 6)/2

Area of the flower bed = 60 m²

2. Now, let's calculate the number of bags of topsoil Betsy needs to cover her flower bed:

Number of bags = Area of the flower bed/Area covered by a bag of topsoil

Number of bags = 60/20

Number of bags = 3

<u>The correct answer is B. 3 bags</u>

C. How can you use the area of the square to find the side length?

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since squares are the same length on each side, whatever one side is, if you square it, it will give you the area of the square. To find the length of one side, you need to do the inverse: find the square root of the area.

for example: if you have a square that is 3x3, the are is 3², or 9. Now, in order to find the length of one side, you need to do √9, which gives you 3.

Somebody please help me on multiple step equations with parenthesis.

mash [69]

Answer:

k = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

8(10 - k) = 2k

First, distribute within the parenthesis,

80 - 8k = 2k

Add 8k to both sides of the equation

80 = 10k

Divide both sides by 10 to get your answer

8 = k

I hope this helps :)

Wewaii [24]

We know that:

$\sin (\theta_1)=-\frac{12}{13}$

There is also an interesting property that relates the sine and the cosine of an angle:

$\sin ^2(\theta_1)+\cos ^2(\theta_1)=1$

We can find the cosine of theta using this equation:

$\begin{gathered} \cos ^2(\theta_1)=1-\sin ^2(\theta_1) \\ \cos (\theta_1)=\sqrt{1-\sin^2(\theta_1)} \\ \cos (\theta_1)=\sqrt[]{1-(-\frac{12}{13})^2} \\ \lvert\cos (\theta_1)\rvert=\sqrt[]{1-\frac{144}{169}}=\sqrt[]{\frac{25}{169}} \\ \lvert\cos (\theta_1)\rvert=\frac{5}{13} \end{gathered}$

Since theta is in the third quadrant then its cosine must be a negative number so:

$\cos (\theta_1)=-\frac{5}{13}$
