Answers:
- A) The equation is d = 2t
- B) Independent variable = time; dependent variable = amount of cookies
=========================================================
Explanation:
The independent variable is always long the horizontal axis. Often this is x, but we are using t in this case.
The variable t represents the amount of time in minutes. For instance, t = 2 means 2 minutes have elapsed. At this time, 4 cookies have been eaten as shown by the point (2,4). As another example, the point (3,6) means that d = 6 cookies have been eaten at time t = 3 minutes.
The equation is d = 2t because the '2' represents the rate of change of "eating 2 cookies per minute". Whatever the time value (t) is, we double it to get the value of d, which is the number of cookies eaten.
Answer:
This is true. 9 is greater than 3.
Why don't you first try to use the cosine law to solve for an angle and then make use of the sin law to solve for the remaining angles.
Cosine law
C^2 = A^2 + B^2 - 2AB(cos C)
Solve for cos C, and then take the inverse of the trig ratio to solve for the angle.
Then set up a proportion like you have done using the sin law and solve for another angle. Knowing the sum of all angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees, we can easily solve for the remaining angle.
