Answer:
74.5°
Step-by-step explanation:
Hannah, the kite and Patricia form the vertices of a right-angled triangle with the hypotenuse side the length of the string L = 60 feet and adjacent side the distance between Hannah and Patricia = d = 16 feet.
Let the angle between the string and the sand be Ф.
By trigonometric ratios,
cosФ = adjacent/hypotenuse
= d/L
= 16 feet/60 feet
= 0.2667
Ф = cos⁻¹(0.2667)
= 74.53°
≅ 74.5°
So, he angle between the string and the sand is Ф = 74.5°
23
because
the pattern is
(5 10) ..1.. (15 20) ..2.. (25 30) ..3..
..1... = 3
..2.. = 13
so ..3.. = 23
Answer:
95 city and 175 highway miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
The driver gets 20 mpg in city, and 28 mpg on the highway.
An equation that could be written is
20x+28y=270
This equation accounts for the distance traveled.
x+y=11
This equotion accounts for how many gallons were driven.
Multiply the bottom equation by 20, so you can solve the set of equations.
20x+28y=270
20x+20y=220
subtract them
8y=50
y=6.25
now plug this back into x+y=11
x+6.25=11
x=4.75
Now 4.75×20=95 city miles and 6.25×28=175 highway miles.
