Answer: required percent increase in price=20%

Step-by-step explanation:

required percent increase in price=\frac{1.92-1.60}{1.60}\times100

                                                       =\frac{0.32}{1.60}\times100

                                                       =0.20\times100

                                                      =20%

Please help me with this trigonometry question:
zzz [600]

Answer:

The distance from A to B is 736.2 to the nearest tenth foot

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔCAB

∵ m∠CAD = 30° ⇒ exterior angle of Δ at vertex A

∴ m∠CAD = m∠ACB + m∠ABC

∵ m∠ABC = 20°

∴ m∠ACB = 30° - 20° = 10°

We will use the sin rule to find the distance AB

∵ \frac{sin20}{1450}=\frac{sin10}{AB}

∴ AB=\frac{1450(sin10)}{sin20}=736.1842936 ≅ 736.2 to the nearest tenth foot
