If the length of side a is 12 centimeters, measure of angle B = 36 degrees and measure of angle C = 75 degrees , what is the len
Fofino [41]
The length of side b is 7.61 m.

Here's how the length was calculated:

Let:

length of side a = 12 centimeters
B = 36 degrees
C = 75 degrees

In order to solve an AAS triangle, use the three angles, add to 180 degrees to find the other angle, then, use The Law of Sines to find each of the other two sides.

A = 180 - (36 + 75) = 69 degrees

by using the law of sines:

a / sin A = b / sin B = c/ sin C

we will substitute the given values:

12 / sin (69) = b / sin (36)

b = unknown

12 / 0.93 = b / 0.59

12.9 = b / 0.59

b = 12.9 * 0.59

b =7.61 cm (length of side b)

Emilia bought 9/12 pound of sliced salami at the deli counter.Which of the following decimals did the scale show?
Daniel [21]
To start this problem, what we need to do is try to simplify the fraction into one we might know already. The best way to go about doing this is to see if we can divide the top and bottom by any of the same numbers. 

We can divide 9 by 1, 3, and 9
We can divide 12 by 1, 3, 4, and 12

Looking back over the  numbers, we can see that both 9 and 12 are divisible by 3, so if we divide both of them by 3, we will get a new fraction! This fraction will be 3/4.

Our next step is to see if we know what 3/4 is. I know 1/4 is .25 because the coin called a quarter is 25 cents, so if I had 3 quarters, I would have 75 cents, so I know know that 9/12 = 3/4 = .75!

A and b are positive integers. Find −2a+3b if a^3 b^2=72.
Alexxx [7]
The answer for "-2a + 3b" is 5.

To solve this equation, you must first find "a" and "b". A^3 times B^2 = 72. In this case, a = 2 (2*2*2 = 8) and b = 3 (3*3 = 9) since their outcomes multiplied together equal 72.

Now you fill in for "a" and "b". "-2*2 + 3*3" before adding you do all the multiplying, which leaves "-4 + 9". Combining like terms gives you 5.

I hope this helps!!
