Answer: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jim's mom distributed  a bag of 440 Jelly beans evenly in to 20 Plastic bags

i.e.each bag has \frac{440}{20}=22  Jelly.

After the hunt, Jim has 242 Jelly. This much Jelly constitutes

\Rightarrow \dfrac{242}{22}=11\ \text{bags}

Therefore, Jim has 11 bags of Jellys

How many solutions does a triangle with side lengths a = 4, A = 112º and b =<br>9 have?​
Ainat [17]

Answer:

This case has NO solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that you are in a case of an obtuse triangle (one of its angles is larger than 90 degrees), the side opposite to the obtuse triangle is shorter than the side adjacent to the angle, so no actual triangle can be formed.

This can be found by simply trying to apply the Law of Sines to solve for the value of angle "B" opposite to side "b":

\frac{sin(A)}{a} =\frac{sin(B)}{b}\\sin(B)=\frac{b\,sin(A)}{a}\\sin(B)=\frac{9\,sin(112^o)}{4}\\\\sin(B)=2.086

As shown above, we get an impossible mathematical condition (also call an absurd), since the sine of an angle cannot give a value larger than 1 (one).

Therefore, there is no angle we can find to build a triangle with the given data.

X² + x - 20
= (x+5)(x-4)

x + 5 = 0
x = -5

x - 4 = 0
x = 4
