So a box of 20 chocolates is divided between a group of people based on age
So the ratio for Sibusiso, Dorris, and Freddy is 2:3:5
Add these together, and you get 10
So to find how much each person gets, divide total amount of chocolates by total age
So (20÷10) = 2
So multiply each age term by 2 and you have your answer
(4:6:10)
So Sibusiso gets 4, Dorris gets 6 and Freddy gets 10
The only values a cosine can have are from -1 to 1.
Answer:
Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
The questions which involve calculating the angles and the sides of a triangle either require the sine rule or the cosine rule. In this question, the two sides that are given are adjacent to each other and the given angle is the included angle. This means that the angle is formed by the intersection of the two lines. Therefore, cosine rule will be used to calculate the length of b. The cosine rule is:
b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B).
The question specifies that a=42, B=120°, and c=35. Plugging in the values:
b^2 = 42^2 + 35^2 - 2(42)(35)*cos(120°).
Simplifying gives:
b^2 = 4459.
Taking square root on the both sides gives b = 66.78 (rounded to the two decimal places).
This means that the length of the third side is 66.78 units!!!
So represent the ages as x y and z with each being numbers
x+y+z=21
x times y times z=75
this is really tough for elementary school
one way is to find the factors of 75 or the numbers that add up to 75 and trial and error
use whole numbers becuase this is the world of math so
75=1 times 3 times 5 times 5
possible ages are
3,5,5
1,5,15
1,3,25
add them up
3+5+5=13
1+5+15=21 check
1+3+25=29
their ages are 1, 5 and 15
