Use the cos ratio to figure this out. You have the length of the hypotenuse and the length of the leg on the ground. The hypotenuse is 20 and the leg is 10. The cos ratio says that cosA = side adjacent/hypotenuse. So fill in the blanks here: cosA = 10/20...cosA=1/2. In your calculator, you will enter inverse cos(.5) to find that the angle in question is 60 degrees. To find the inverse function on your calculator, press the "2nd" button and the "cos" then in the (), enter ".5".

1) C is because it’s exactly double the size in both width and length while the others are only gaining one or the other. For example - the a length of the squares is 5 and the length on c is 10, the base on a is 3 long, the base on c is 6. The width on a is 1 and the width on c is 2. You can put these into fractions 5/10 3/6 1/2 but they all equal 1/2. So it’s double the size of a.

musickatia [10]

Answer:

14\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's write this out as an equation. Let the unknown quantity be x:

x+\frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{3} (x+\frac{2}{3}) = 10\\\\3x+2-x -\frac{2}{3} = 30\\\\9x+6-3x-2=90\\\\6x= 86\\\\x = \frac{86}{6} =\frac{43}{3} =14\frac{1}{3} \\

Which data value has the highest frequency? 1 1/6 3 1/6 3/8 5/8
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

3 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the highest value, we have to evaluate each term individually,

1)  1 1/6 = 7/6 = 1.167

2) 3 1/6 = 19/6 = 3.16

3) 3/8 = 0.375

4) 5/8 = 0.625

Therefore, second data value (3 1/6) is highest.

a toy store marks down every toy by 15% in January. How much does a toy cost during January? Use p for the price in December.
satela [25.4K]

A toy cost 0.85p in January.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mark down in January = 15%

Let,

Price in December = p

Mark down in January = 15% of price in December

Mark down in January = \frac{15}{100}*p

Mark down in January = 0.15p

Price of toy in January = Price in December - Mark down

Price of toy in January = p - 0.15p = 0.85p

A toy cost 0.85p in January.
