Answer:

  110sin(72°) feet

In the right triangle with the 110 ft ladder as the hypotenuse, the side opposite the 72° angle represents the maximum height the ladder will reach. The definition of the sine function tells you ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

so the Opposite side will be ...

  ladder height = (110 ft)sin(72°)

Answer:

The cost of a pizza is 30 cents less than 8 times the cost of a soda . If x represents the cost of the soda in terms of cents .
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

c = 8x-30

23x-90

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the cost of soda is x, 8 times the cost of soda is is 8x.

Then, you have to take 30 cents away, so the cost for pizza would be 8x-30 or 8x-.30.

This is your pizza or c.

Next, to put in 3 pizzas and 5 sodas, you just multiply 3 and 5 by the corresponding variables.

So 3(8x-30) + 5(x) = 18x - 90 + 5x = 23x - 90 or 23x - .90

Joe is finding the length of a rectangular prism. The volume of the prism is 204 ft3. The width is 3.5 ft, and the height is 5 f
zmey [24]

Answer:

B. He added 3.5 and 5 when he should have multiplied them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's observe Joe's steps:

- V = lwh

- 204 = 3.5 * (5) * l

Here, * means to multiply, so we're supposed to multiply 3.5 to 5, which would give you the answer 17.5. Unfortunately, look what Joe got: he obtained the value of 8.5, and if we observe, 3.5 + 5 = 8.5.

That's how we know that Joe added instead of multiplied, as he should have done. Thus, the answer is B.
