1/2 because 36 is half of 72. You could also divide the numbers by 12 and you will get 3/6 which is the same as 1/2.
Answer:
24408
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply every number by 8, then multiply every number by 10.
Cross multiply the denominators by the numerators. In other words, 12 times 3 and 7 times x (x, being our missing number).
We end up with 36 and 7x.
Divide both sides by 7.
36/7x = 5.14
x = 5.14
Hope this helps!
Answer:
the 2nd answer
Step-by-step explanation:
it makes sense
Remark
I'm not sure I know what you mean, but I will answer trying to interpret it so it fits the description of the question.
Step One: Set up the equation. The normal way of solving this would be to use the Cos function.
Cos(theta) = Adjacent / hypotenuse = x/8 Multiply both sides by 8
8*cos(theta) = x Theta = 35
8*cos(35) = x This is about as simple a way as is possible.
6.553 = the height of the sale.
Step Three: try using the reciprocal
1 / cos(35)= hypotenuse / adjacent
1/0.8191 = 8/x cross multiply
x = 0.8191 * 8
x = 6.553
