14        20

----  =  -----  cross multiply

3x       x-5


14(x-5) = 3x (20)

14x - 70 = 60x

-14x          -14x

-70 = 36x

/36    /36

-70/36  = x

or

-35/18 = x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A1. C = 104°, b = 16, c = 25

Law of Sines: B = arcsin[b·sinC/c} ≅ 38.4°

A = 180-C-B = 37.6°

Law of Sines: a = c·sinA/sinC ≅ 15.7

A2. B = 56°, b = 17, c = 14

Law of Sines: C = arcsin[c·sinB/b] ≅43.1°

A = 180-B-C = 80.9°

Law of Sines: a = b·sinA/sinB ≅ 20.2

B1.  B = 116°, a = 11, c = 15

Law of Cosines: b = √(a² + c² - 2ac·cosB) = 22.2

A = arccos{(b²+c²-a²)/(2bc) ≅26.5°

C = 180-A-B = 37.5°

B2. a=18, b=29, c=30

Law of Cosines: A = arccos{(b²+c²-a²)/(2bc) ≅ 35.5°

Law of Cosines: B = arccos[(a²+c²-b²)/(2ac) = 69.2°

C = 180-A-B = 75.3°

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

  90 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the inscribed triangle is 1/2 that of the enclosing triangle. So, the total of perimeters is ...

  (3·16 in)(1 +1/2 +1/4 +1/8) = (48 in)(15/8) = 90 inches

Answer:

Randomly selecting a six of diamonds - 1 / 52

Randomly selecting a 7, 8, 9 or 10 - 4 / 13

Step-by-step explanation:

There is only 1 six of diamonds in a standard deck of cards. There are 52 cards in a deck, thus the probability of pulling a six of diamonds is 1 in 52.

There are 4 of each card in a deck. so they are 4 7's, 4 8's. 4 9's and 4 10's. And there are a total of 52 cards in a deck. So the probability of pulling a 7,8,9 or 10 are 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 in 52

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16

16 / 52 simplified is 4 / 13 Therefore the is a 4 in 13 chance of pulling a 7 8 9 or 10

The other ones are correct
