Because the ratio of yellow to blue can be expressed as 5/3, you would solve the equation 5/3= 2/x. To solve, you would get x alone by cross multiplying and getting 5x=6. Divide both sides by 5 and get 6/5 or 1 and 1/5 cans of blue paint

Find tan in the triangle ​
grigory [225]

Answer:

35/12

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent in a triangle is always the opposite side divided by the  adjacent side. In this triangle, BC is the side opposite to angle a, and AC is the side adjacent to angle A.

However, we do not know what AC is, but we can use the pythagorean theorem to solve. 37^2-35^2=144\\\\, which is 12 squared. Therefore, AC is 12 units in length.

Now we have all the sides of the triangle and we can divide the opposite side by the adjacent side. We get 35/12.

Hope this helps!

astraxan [27]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Although you have not been provided with direct masses, you can use the percentage composition values in place of masses.

First, calculate the number of moles of each element:

This is the formula for the ionic compound calcium carbonate, confirming that our result is indeed in the magnitude of a plausible answer. In fact, given the fact that calcium carbonate is ionic, it is also true that this empirical formula equates to the unit formula of the compound.
