The right triangle with  angle  45 ° has adjacent leg 9 feet

So the opposite leg is calculated from

tan 45 = opposite leg / adjacent leg ⇒ adjacent leg = 9 tan 45 = 9.

That is the distance bc.

The right triangle with angle 60° has adjacent leg 9 and opposite leg (x+9), where x is the distance ab.

Then tan(60) = (x+9) / 9 ⇒x+9 = 9 tan(60)

x + 9 = 15.59

x = 15.59 - 9 = 6.59

Answer: 6.59 feet

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

0.3 or 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

The professors will only seek a smaller publisher if they cannot place the statistics book with a major publisher. If the probability of getting a major publisher is 40% and the probability of getting a smaller publisher is 50%, then the probability that the statistics book would wind up being placed with a smaller publisher is given by:

P=(1-P(major))*P(minor)\\P=(1-0.4)*0.5\\P=0.3

The probability is 0.3 or 30%.

Amy used a total of 7 1/4 gallons of gas while driving her car. Each hour she was driving, she used 5/6 gallons of gas. What was
nika2105 [10]

Answer:  8  7/10  hours

whole part = 8

fractional part = 7/10

========================================================

Work Shown:

x = number of hours driving

(5/6)x = total number of gallons of gas used

(5/6)x = 7 & 1/4

(5/6)x = 7 + 1/4

(5/6)x = 28/4 + 1/4

(5/6)x = 29/4

x = (29/4)*(6/5)

x = (29*6)/(4*5)

x = 174/20

x = 87/10

x = (80+7)/10

x = 80/10 + 7/10

x = 8 + 7/10

x = 8 & 7/10

This is the same as writing 8  7/10

Amy drove 8 full hours, plus an additional 7/10 of an hour.

That mixed number converts to the decimal value 8.7
