Answer:
∠B = 60°
a = 4.0 units
b = 6.9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle is right angled. The sum of all angles of a triangle is equal to 180 degrees.
The 3 angles are 90, 30 , ∠B .
<em>
</em>
Thus, B = 180 - 120 = 60 degrees
by trigonometry,
sin(30) = 
= 0.5
a = (8)(0.5) = 4 units
Also,
cos(30) = 
= 0.866
b = (8)(0.866)= 6.928
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the slope of a line given two points by using the following
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= ( 3-0)/(7 - -8)
= ( 3-0)/(7+8)
= 3/15
= 1/5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When the 12-cup bag of sugar is divided evenly, each baker gets 6 cups.
There is no dot on Noah"s graph for 6 cups of sugar, so you have to extrapolate the given set of dots to see where it might be. You notice that each dot is 1/2 cup of flour more than the one to its left, so you expect that Noah will use 3 cups of flour for 6 cups of sugar.
__
Similarly, the table for Lin does not have an entry for 6 cups of sugar. Again, the next entry can be figured using the relations between previous entries. Here, each row for sugar goes up by 1 1/2 cups, so the next row would be 4 1/2 + 1 1/2 = 6 cups. And the rows for flour go up by 1 cup, so the next row for flour (for 6 cups of sugar) would be 4 cups of flour.
Lin will use 4 cups of flour for 6 cups of sugar.
__
<em>Alternate solution</em>
The relationship are proportional in both cases, so you can read the value for a smaller amount (2 cups or 3 cups of sugar), then multiply the value by an appropriate multiplier (3 or 2) to get the number of cups of flour for 6 cups of sugar.
Noah: 1 flour for 2 sugar ⇒ 3 flour for 6 sugar
Lin: 2 flour for 3 sugar ⇒ 4 flour for 6 sugar
We will find the numerator step by step for each expression:
For 10/15 = x / 60
x = (10/15) * (60)
x = 40
For x / 108 = 4/9
x = (4/9) * (108)
x = 48
For 7/11 = x / 121
x = (7/11) * (121)
x = 77
For x / 144 = 2/6
x = (2/6) * (144)
x = 48
