Sinθ=opposite side/hypotenuse
cosθ=adjacent side/hypotenuse
where both the sides are relative to theta.

in this case, 22 is your hypotenuse. theta (θ) is the angle you are examining. i've included a diagram for reference because the equations may format differently depending on which angle you choose as theta. 

using my diagram:

sinθ = o/h
sin 15 = o/22
sin 15(22) = o
o=5.69m/s

therefore the vertical component is about 5.69m/s.

cosθ=a/h
cos15 = a/22
cos15(22) = a
a = 21.25m/s

therefore, your horizontal component is about 21.25m/s.

Nadia is a stockbroker. She earns 13​% commission each week. Last​ week, she sold ​$4,500 worth of stocks. How much did she make
m_a_m_a [10]

Multiply amount sold by commission rate:

4500 x 0.13 = 585

She made $585 last week.

Multiply amount made in 1 week by 52 weeks ( 1 year = 52 weeks)

585 x 52 = 30,420

She made $30,420 in 2011

muminat

Answer:

$7.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount spent on the ticket   = $40.75

Number of ticket purchased  = 5

Processing fee per ticket  = $0.90

Unknown:

Cost of each ticket = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to find the processing fee for the 5 tickets purchase;

      Processing fee = number ticket x processing fee per ticket

      Processing fee  = 5 x 0.9  = $4.5

Now, the real cost a ticket = $40.75  - $4.5  = $36.25

So, cost per ticket is;

        Cost  = \frac{36.25}{5}   = $7.25
