Answer:

It will take him 200 minutes to read 90 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Josh can read 18 pages in 40 minutes.

Ratio of pages to minutes = 18 : 40

Number of pages to read = 90

Minutes = x

Ratio of pages to minutes = 90 : x

The relationship is proportional

18 : 40 :: 90 : x

Product of extremes = Product of means

18x = 40*90

18x = 3600

Dividing both sides by 18

$\frac{18x}{18}=\frac{3600}{18}$

x = 200

Therefore,

It will take him 200 minutes to read 90 pages.

What’s the answer to this?

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

y=3/2x+0

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope intercept form formula is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept and since the slope is rise over run ( or rise/run just put it into fraction form) we count from the y intercept up until we can see the line reach a point where it touches a actual cross point ( in this case from the y intercept we see it goes up three) Then we count over how many to that cross point ( the full point, not just a random place on the chart) (in this case 2) and that creates 3/2. Now for the y intercept. Where does the line intercept the vertical line? That's your y intercept. In this case it's 0. Now you can see where we count up from three ( for the slope) and over two. Right onto that point. Hope this makes sense! If not look up Khan academy for some extra tutoring that is free.

Hope this helps! If so please mark brainliest and rate/heart if it did.

part 2. Find the value of the trig function indicated, use for that Pythagorean theorem to find the third side if you need it.

andreev551 [17]

Answer: $\bold{5)\ \cos \theta=\dfrac{\sqrt{11}}{6}\qquad 6)\ \tan \theta =\dfrac{8}{17}\qquad 7)\ \cos \theta = \dfrac{4}{3}\qquad 8)\ \cos \theta = \dfrac{\sqrt{10}}{10}}$

<u>Step-by-Step Explanation:</u>

Pythagorean Theorem is: a² + b² = c² , <em>where "c" is the hypotenuse</em>

$5)\ \cos \theta=\dfrac{\text{side adjacent to}\ \theta}{\text{hypotenuse of triangle}}=\dfrac{3\sqrt{11}}{18}\quad \rightarrow \large\boxed{\dfrac{\sqrt{11}}{6}}$

Note: (15)² + (3√11)² = hypotenuse² → hypotenuse = 18

$6)\ \cos \theta=\dfrac{\text{side adjacent to}\ \theta}{\text{hypotenuse of triangle}}=\dfrac{8}{17}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{8}{17}}$

Note: 8² + 15² = hypotenuse² → hypotenuse = 17

$7)\ \tan \theta=\dfrac{\text{side opposite to}\ \theta}{\text{side adjacent to}\ \theta}=\dfrac{20}{15}\quad \rightarrow \large\boxed{\dfrac{4}{3}}$

Note: hypotenuse not needed for tan

$8)\ \cos \theta=\dfrac{\text{side adjacent to}\ \theta}{\text{hypotenuse of triangle}}=\dfrac{2}{2\sqrt{10}}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{\sqrt{10}}{10}}$

Note: 2² + 6² = hypotenuse² → hypotenuse = 2√10
