The expression sin 57° is equal to
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

cos(33^{\circ})

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

sin(57^{\circ})

Required

Determine an equivalent expression

In trigonometry:

sin(\theta)= cos(90^{\circ} - \theta)

In sin(57^{\circ})

\theta=57^{\circ}

Substitute 57^{\circ} for \theta

in sin(\theta)= cos(90^{\circ} - \theta)

sin(57^{\circ})= cos(90^{\circ} - 57^{\circ})

sin(57^{\circ})= cos(33^{\circ})

Hence, the equivalent expression is: cos(33^{\circ})

Kyle is shopping for his favorite
nalin [4]

Answer:

The 9 ounce box is the better deal, and Kyle will save 2 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should find how much 1 once would cost in the 9 ounce box.

Do 2.52 ÷ 9 = x

x = 0.28

This means that in the <u>9 ounce box, one ounce costs 28 cents</u>.

Now, find how much one once would cost in the 12 ounce box.

3.60 ÷ 12 = x

x = 0.30

This means that in the <u>12 ounce box, one ounce costs 30 cents</u>.

This means that the 9 ounce box is a better deal, because it costs less per ounce.

0.30 - 0.28 = 0.02. This means there is a 2 cent difference in their prices per ounce.

So, Kyle should choose the 9 ounce box, and he will save 2 cents per box.

Harry has a part-time job as a babysitter. The table below shows the amount of money Harry earned for different numbers of hours
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Part A- The 1st box is 96 and the second box is 10.

PartB-

Part C-

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u><em>Part A:</em></u></h2>

5x12=60

6x12=72

8x12=96

10x12=120

So the 1st box is 96 and the second box is 10.

<h2><u><em>Part B:</em></u></h2>

5     $50

6     $60

8     $80

I know this because Harry receives $10 per hour so you have to multiply the number of hours by $10.

<h2><em><u>Part C:</u></em></h2>

If Harry babysits for 5 hours, he would receive $60 but if he does yard work for 5 hours, he would receive $50. Harry would receive $10 more by babysitting than by doing yard work.

Hoped this helped.
