Question :

Mathematics

Answer:

C) 405.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a polygon with three angles and three sides. Types of triangle are scalene, isosceles, equilateral, right angled triangle.

Given a triangle with angles A, B, C and the corresponding sides directly opposite to the angles as a, b, c. The sine rule states that:

\frac{a}{sin(A)}= \frac{b}{sin(B)} =\frac{c}{sin(C)}

In the triangle formed by point C, ship B and ship A, we have ∠A = 82°, ∠B = 78°, c = AB = 140 ft. Hence:

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

82 + 78 + ∠C = 180

∠C + 160 = 180

∠C = 20°

Using sine rule:

\frac{c}{sin(C)}=\frac{a}{sin(A)}\\\\\frac{140}{sin(20)}=\frac{a}{sin(82)}\\\\a=    \frac{140*sin (82)}{sin(20)}\\\\a=405.3\ ft

a =  distance from Ship B to the signal fire at point C

Courtney must earn at least $150 to pay for broken window. She earns $10 for every car she washes.
valkas [14]

Answer:

10c ≥ 150

At least 15 cars (or c ≥ 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

If she gets $10 for every car she washes a car then 10c is the rate of her gaining money and she needs at least (greater than or equal to) $150.

This equation can be used to express the situation:

10c ≥ 150

<em>To solve you divide the 10 from both sides of the inequality to get.</em>

c ≥ 15

Todd is attempting to predict how much money his furniture company will make based on the amount raw materials the company curre
const2013 [10]
<span>Average profit from the sale of 1 piece of furniture = 3x + 1 Average number of pieces of furniture that can be made using current supply of raw materials = 3x - 1. Therefore, Average profit of total furniture = Average profit X Average total of furniture sold = (3x + 1) X (3x - 1) = 9x^2 - 1</span>
