Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Use tangent: </u>
tan = opposite / adjacent
- tan x = 1/14
- x = arctan (1/14)
- x = 4°
We have 60 gallons of 20% antifreeze.
How much 70% antifreeze do we add to get 60% antifreeze?
We'll make "x" the gallons of 70% we must add.
.20 * 60 + .70 x = .60 * (60 + x)
12 + .70x = 36 + .60x
.10x = 24
x = 240 gallons of 70% antifreeze.

Answer:
53°
Step-by-step explanation:
17² = 18² + 20² - 2(18)(20) cos Q
289 = 324 + 400 - 720 cos Q
289 = 724 - 720 cos Q
-435 = -720 cos Q
0.6042 = cos Q
Q = 52.83
Remark
Supplementary angles add up to 180o.
Givens
<1 = 124
<2 = 2x + 4
I imagine you are looking for either x or <2.
Equation
<1 + <2 = 180 Substitute the givens
124 + 2x + 4 = 180 Collect like terms on the left.
128 + 2x = 180 Subtract 128 from both sides
2x = 180 - 128 Collect like terms on the right
2x = 52 divide by 2
x = 52/2
x = 26 <<<<<<<<< answer
<1 = 124
<2 = 2x + 4 = 2*26 + 4
<2 = 52 + 4
<2 = 56 <<<<<<<< answer
We need choices if you want an exact answer.
