Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to say that:
Mary's amount is x.
Ashley's amount is y.
Oscar's amount is z.
Mary has at least 3 times the amount of cash that ashley and oscar have combined
Ashley's and Oscar's combined amount is y + z.
3 times this amount is 3(y + z).
At least 3 times means that z is equal or greater than 3(y + z).
So
In this problem, you must use SohCahToa which basically means:
Sin - opposite over hypotenuse
Cosine - adjacent over hypotenuse
Tangent - Opposite over hypotenuse
So in this picture we have 4 -which is on the opposite side of x - and a 5 -which is the hypotenuse of the triangle. This means we must use sin.
Using a calculator you put in:
Your answer is 53.13 degrees
