Answer:
<u>31°</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
As the opposing side and adjacent side of the angle x are given, we need to take the tan ratio of the angle.
=============================================================
Solving :
⇒ tan x° = 9/15
⇒ tan x° = 3/5
⇒ x = tan⁻¹ (0.6)
⇒ x = <u>31°</u>
2.50 cm X 82 cm = 205
The rest is correct
X, X+2, and X+4 are the three odd integers.
2(X)+(X+4)=25 represents the problem.
2X+X+4=25
3X+4=25
3X=25-4
3X=21
X=7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm sure he was making a joke at the expense of people who rely on mathematics rather than common sense. It is funny, but then Twain was a remarkably funny author..
The problem is that the comparison is apt using some sort of proportion, but it is absurd to think that the land holding the river would also shrink a proportional amount.
The river reached a minimum (presumably) in 1875 by cutting out all the loops that were there in 1700. The Mississippi was then a straight line from it's beginning to its delta on the gulf of Mexico. It could not get any shorter. Still, Twain managed to get laughs with his whimsical humor.
Thanks for posting. This made my evening.
