Answer: A. 31.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using law of cosine because it is side angle side
a=16
b=21
angle = 116
c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab cosC, let C be the angle given
c^2=(21)^2+(16)^2-2(16)(21) cos(116)
c^2=441+256-672 cos(116)
i used a ti-89 and answered the right side and got
(you can find a ti-89 simulator online, but for problems like this make sure it is in degree mode)
991.585
c^2=991.585
take square root of both sides
=31.4894, which if you round it up it would be 31.5, so the answer would be A
therefore:
a=16
b=21
c=31.5
Erica earned a total of $50,450 last year from her two jobs. The amount she earned from her job at the store was $1,250 more than four times the amount she earned from her job at the college.
Lets x be the amount she earned from here job at college
amount she earned at the store = 4 * amount earned at college + 1250
= 4x + 1250
Amount earned at college + amount earned at store = 50450
x + 4x + 1250 = 50450
5x + 1250 = 50450
Subtract 1250 from both sides
5x = 49200 (divide by 5)
x = 9840
she earn $9840 from her job at the college
If it is a fraction like (3a-3b)/(3a+12b)
= [3(a-b)]/[3(a+4b)]
= (a-b)/(a+4b)
Answer:
15% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
2750... 10% of that is 275, add 275 to 2750 is 3025. 1% of 2750 is 27.50, you times that by 5, which is 137.50 and add that to 3025 giving you 3162.50, add the 10% with the 5% gives you 15%, that's the increase.
