Answer: 5 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of times that he saved $75 be x.

Let the number of times that he saved $150 be y.

Therefore, based on the information given in the question, we can form an equation which will be:

x + y = 8 ...... i

75x + 150y = 825 ....... ii

From equation I,

x + y = 8

y = 8 - x....... iiii

Put equation iii into ii and this will be:

75x + 150y = 825

75x + 150(8 - x) = 825

75x + 1200 - 150x = 825

75x - 150x = 825 - 1200

-75x = -375

x = 375/75

x = 5

He saved $75 5times from his paycheck.

Suppose we have a right triangle with legs of length a and b and hypotenuse of length c. Suppose b=3 and c=5. Then a= , For the
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Length of right-angle  triangle 'a' = 4

b)

<u><em></em></u>sin(A) = \frac{opposite side}{Hypotenuse} = \frac{a}{c} = \frac{4}{5}<u><em></em></u>

<u><em></em></u>cos(A) = \frac{Adjacent side}{Hypotenuse} = \frac{b}{c} = \frac{3}{5}<u><em></em></u>

<u><em></em></u>tan(A) = \frac{opposite side}{Adjacent side} = \frac{a}{b} = \frac{4}{3}<u><em></em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Given  b = 3 and hypotenuse c = 5

Given ΔABC  is a right angle triangle

By using pythagoras theorem

        c² = a² + b²

  ⇒ a² = c² - b²

 ⇒  a² = 5²-3²

          =25 - 9

      a² = 16

⇒   a = √16 = 4

The sides of right angle triangle  a = 4 ,b = 3 and c = 5

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>sin(A) = \frac{opposite side}{Hypotenuse} = \frac{a}{c} = \frac{4}{5}<u><em></em></u>

<u><em></em></u>cos(A) = \frac{Adjacent side}{Hypotenuse} = \frac{b}{c} = \frac{3}{5}<u><em></em></u>

<u><em></em></u>tan(A) = \frac{opposite side}{Adjacent side} = \frac{a}{b} = \frac{4}{3}<u><em></em></u>
