Answer:

bx = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2(bx - 5) = 16

- 2bx + 10 = 16

- 2bx + 10 - 10 = 16 - 10

- 2bx = 6

- 2bx ÷ - 2 = 6 ÷ - 2

bx = - 3

Answer:

$174.66\ mi$ or $175\ mi$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Applying the law of cosines

$c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}-2(a)(b)cos(C)$

In this problem we have

$a=200\ mi$

$b=30\ mi$

$C=30\°$

substitute the values

$c^{2}=200^{2}+30^{2}-2(200)(30)cos(30\°)$

$c^{2}=30,507.695$

$c=174.66\ mi$

Jerry’s rhombus has a base of 15 inches and a height of 9 inches. Charlene’s rhombus has a base and a height that are 13 the bas

neonofarm [45]

Answer: The area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that the exercise says " $\frac{1}{3}$ times the base and height of Jerry’s rhombus".

The area of a rhombus can be calculated with the following formula:

$A=b*a$

Where "b" is the length of the base and "a" is the altitude or the height.

Then, you can calculate the area using the formula shown above.

Therefore, you get:

1. Jerry's rhombus:

$A_1=(15\ in)(9\ in)\\\\A_1=135\ in^2$

2. Charlene's rhombus:

$A_2=(\frac{1}{3}*15\ in)(\frac{1}{3}*9\ in)\\\\A_2=(5\ in)(3\ in)\\\\A_2=15\ in^2$

Dividing the area calculated, you get:

$\frac{135\ in^2}{15\ in^2}=9$

Therefore, you can conclude that the area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.
