Answer:

1. Diego is incorrect because 2.375 divided by 0.025 does not equal 500.

2. 2.375 / 500 = 0.00475 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We take the thickness of the stack and divide it by the thickness of each piece of paper to get how many pieces of paper are in the stack. In this case, Diego's guess indicates that there are only 95 pieces of paper in the stack.

2. The proper formula for this would question would be 2.375 / x = 500.

x represents the thickness of each piece of paper. We can solve for x by multiplying both sides by x to get 2.375 = 500x then we divide both sides by 500 to isolate x.

2.375 / 500 = x

0.00475 = x

Find AC <br> What Is The Equation To AC?

In-s [12.5K]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that ABC is a right triangle.

The length of AB is 7 units.

The measure of ∠A is 65°

We need to determine the length of AC

<u>Length of AC:</u>

The length of AC can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.

Thus, we have;

$cos \ \theta=\frac{adj}{hyp}$

Where the value of $\theta$ is 65° and the side adjacent to the angle is AC and the side hypotenuse to the angle is AB.

Substituting the values, we have;

$cos \ 65^{\circ}=\frac{AC}{AB}$

Substituting AB = 7, we have;

$cos \ 65^{\circ}=\frac{AC}{7}$

Multiplying both sides by 7, we get;

$cos \ 65^{\circ} \times 7=AC$

$0.423 \times 7=AC$

$2.961=AC$

Rounding off to the nearest hundredth, we get;

$2.96=AC$

Thus, the length of AC is 2.96 units.

The area of a rectangle is 48 cm² and the length of the rectangle is 8 cm longer than the width. What is the equation you would

ehidna [41]

48= l*w
l= 8+w

To solve for width, substitute the value of l in the first equation so that everything is in terms of w.

Final answer: 48= (8+w)*w
