Answer:

They will be 608 miles from their destination after 3.7 hours

They will be 692 miles from their destination after 2.3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the amount of miles that it takes them in total to drive to their destination.

3 hours into the trip, they already drove 180 miles, since they drove at 60 mph.

Add this to 650 to find the total number of miles to the destination:

180 + 650 = 830

Now, find how far they will be 3.7 hours after:

3.7(60) = 222

830 - 222

= 608 miles

Find how far they were 2.3 hours after:

2.3(60) = 138

830 - 138

= 692 miles

They will be 608 miles from their destination after 3.7 hours

They will be 692 miles from their destination after 2.3 hours

A right triangle in which one acute angle is a reference angle for a 75° angle in standard position intersects the unit circle a

vampirchik [111]

Alright, lets get started.

Please take a look at the diagram attached.

The reference angle of 75 will be 75

As it is mentioned that the angle intersects the unit circle means r = 1

So, finding cos

cos 75 = $\frac{X}{r}$

cos 75 = $\frac{0.259}{1}$

cos 75 = 0.259 : Answer

Hope it will help :)

A cell phone that regular costs $780 is on sale for 15% off. What is the total cost of the phone if you have to pay 5.5% sales t

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

$700

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Regular cost of cell phone= $780

discount = 15%

tax = 5.5%

Step two

Let us compute the discounted amount

= 15/100*780

=0.15*780

=$117

hence the selling price is

=780-117

=$663

Also, the tax-deductible is

=5.5/100*663

=0.055*663

=$36.465

The total cost of the phone will be

=663+36.465

=699.465

=$700 to the nearest cent

The exponential function y= a(b)^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10). Which of the following is closest to the value o

Yuki888 [10]

If the exponential function $y=ab^x$ passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

The given exponential equation is:

$y=ab^x$

The function passes through the points (3, 25) and (8, 10)

Substitute x = 3 and y = 25 into the function $y=ab^x$

$25=ab^3$ ............................(1)

Substitute x = 8 and y = 10 into the function $y=ab^x$

$10=ab^8$ .............................(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

$\frac{10}{25}=\frac{ab^8}{ab^3} \\\\0.4=b^5\\\\b=0.4^\frac{1}{5} \\\\b=0.4^{0.2}\\\\b=0.833$

Therefore, if the exponential function $y=ab^x$ passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833
