Answer:
You multiply 37.5*2 to get 75.
Step-by-step explanation:
Couldnt A) Just be multiplied by 1/1 or is that cheating
Law of cosine:
c² = a² +b² -2ab*cosC.
Because the triangle is equilateral a=b=c=x,
and we can write,
x²=x² +x² -2xx*cosC
x² =2x² -2x²* cos C
-x² = -2x²*cos C
cos C= 1/2,
so m∠C=60⁰.
Because all sides are equal, and across of the equal sides should be equal angles, all angles will be also equal and = 60⁰.
[1] Amount of water per minute
Water Miser: m = 3.0 gal/min
Watersaver: m = 2.5 gal/min
Waterstream: m = 1.5 gal/min
[2] Equations:
I would suggest using y = mx.
Water Miser: y = 3x
Watersaver: y = 2.5x
Waterstream: y = 1.5x
[3] For 6,8,10, and 12 minutes:
Plug in x = 6, x = 8, x = 10, and x = 12 into each of the three equations and record the y-values.
[4] Which would you buy?
Depends on your personal opinion.
Want to save the earth? Pick the one that uses the least amount of water.
Want to have a waterfall for a shower? Pick the one that uses the most amount of water. :)
