Mathematics
1 answer:
Tems11 [23]2 years ago

Answer: 53.34 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the second piece of rope be x.

The first piece of rope is half as long as the second piece of rope. This will be: = x/2.

The third piece is three times as long as the second piece of rope. This will be: = 3 × x = 3x

Therefore,

x + 0.5x + 3x = 80

4.5x = 80

x = 80/4.5

x = 17.78 feet

The length of the longest piece of rope will be:

= 3 × x

= 3 × 17.78

= 53.34 feet

How many solutions does the system have?
serious [3.7K]
The system has two solutions.

You can tell because the second equation is a quadratic and the first is a line, so the line passes through the quadratic twice.

Answer:

  (c) 14.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  sin(65°) = BC/BA

  BC = BA·sin(65°) ≈ (16 cm)·0.9063 ≈ 14.501 cm

  BC ≈ 14.5 cm

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

As is often the case, a simple estimate is all that is needed to identify the correct answer choice.

You only need to know how the long side of a right triangle compares to the others. In an isosceles right triangle, both legs are √2/2 ≈ 0.71 times the hypotenuse. The long side of a right triangle will never be shorter than that. This means the long side must be greater than about 11.2, and cannot be greater than 16. There is only one answer choice in that range.
