The problem is modelled as right angle triangle, shown in the diagram below
The distance between the pilot and the house is labelled as

Using the trigonometry ratio of sine


Let x be the mass of the paperbacks and y be the mass of the textbook.
20x + 9y = 44.4 ----------- (1)
25x + 10y = 51 -------------(2)
(1) x 10:
200x + 90y = 444 --------(1a)
(2) x 9:
225x + 90y = 459 --------(2a)
(2a) - (1a):
25x = 15
x = 0.6 -------- sub into (1)
20 (0.6) + 9y = 44.4
12 + 9y = 44.4
9y = 44.4 - 12
9y = 32.4
y = 3.6
So the paperback's mass is 0.6 pounds and textbook is 3.6 pounds
Answer:
.65625 gallons a week
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5 x 7=10.5
10.5/16= .65625
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Given
--- not more than
spending
Solving (a): Represent as an inequality
Not more than means <
So, the inequality is:


Solving (b): The first two possible solutions
These are the numbers closest to 150 i.e. 149 and 148
Hence, 
44 because 4 times 1 is 4 and 6 times 4 is 24 so in the answer would be 2240
