Answer:

Long leg = 10√3
Short leg = 10
Hypotenuse = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of a special triangle 30-60-90.

A special right triangle is a right triangle with some regular feature that makes calculations on the triangle easier, or for which simple formulas exist.

The ratio between the corresponding side of each angle is 1 : √3 : 2

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

30-60-90 ⇔ 1 : √3 : 2

Given the side corresponding to 90° is 20

30° : 90° = 1 : 2

30° : 20 = 1 : 2

30° = 10

30° : 60° = 1 : √3

10 : 60° = 1 : √3

60° = 10√3

Hope this helps!! :)

A quadratic function and an exponential function are graphed below. How do the decay rates of the functions compareover the inte

Kobotan [32]

To check the decay rate, we need to check the variation in y-axis.

Since our interval is

$-2We need to evaluate both function at those limits.At x = -2, we have a value of 4 for both of them, at x = 0 we have 1 for the exponential function and 0 to the quadratic function. Let's call the exponential f(x), and the quadratic g(x).[tex]\begin{gathered} f(-2)=g(-2)=4 \\ f(0)=1 \\ g(0)=0 \end{gathered}$

To compare the decay rates we need to check the variation on the y-axis of both functions.

$\begin{gathered} \Delta y_1=f(-2)-f(0)=4-1=3 \\ \Delta y_2=g(-2)-g(0)=4-0=4 \end{gathered}$

Now, we calculate their ratio to find how they compare:

$\frac{\Delta y_1}{\Delta y_2}=\frac{3}{4}$

This tell us that the exponential function decays at three-fourths the rate of the quadratic function.

And this is the fourth option.

Solve Systems by Substitution 2x+5y=-3 x+8y=4 and 2x+y=7 x-2y=-14

ASHA 777 [7]

2x + 5y = -3 ⇒ 2x + 5y = -3
1x + 8y = 4 ⇒ 2x + 16y = 8
 -11y = -11 
 -11 -11
 y = 1
 2x + 5(1) = -3
 2x + 5 = -3
 -5 -5
 2x = -8
 2 2
 x = -4
 (x, y) = (-4, 1)

2x + 1y = 7 ⇒ 2x + 1y = 7
1x - 2y = -14 ⇒ 2x - 4y = -28
 5y = 35
 5 5
 y = 7
 2x + 7 = 7
 -7 -7
 2x = 0
 2 2
 x = 0
 (x, y) = (0, 7)

It costs a publishing company $0.55 to print one copy of a certain novel. This company paid $725,000 for the rights to the novel

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. 116,900

The publishing company must sell 116,900 copies of the book to break even.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each book costs 0.55 to make and the company can sell it at 6.75, which means that the company earns 6.20 from each book, this is called the net value. If you divide the amount htat the company paid for the rights by the net value you can find the total number of copies that the company has to sell to break even.

# books = $725,000/$6.20 = 116935 or approximately 116900 copies of the book.
