You need to divide 56 by 16. Then you will get your answer.

It would be 3.5 as you start with 56 then take away 16 =40 then another witch is 24 the another 16 Is 8 so you have taken e16 away so far that's 3 pound and because you can take a full 16 off that makes it a half so final awnser is 3.5 56-16=40-16=24-16=8=3 pounds and a half hope I have helped you in any way

In abc above,what is the length of ad

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate BD using sine ratio in Δ BCD and the exact value

sin60° = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ , thus

sin60° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{BD}{BC}$ = $\frac{BD}{12}$ = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ ( cross- multiply )

2BD = 12 $\sqrt{3}$ ( divide both sides by 2 )

BD = 6 $\sqrt{3}$

-----------------------------------------------------------

Calculate AD using the tangent ratio in Δ ABD and the exact value

tan30° = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ , thus

tan30° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{AD}{BD}$ = $\frac{AD}{6\sqrt{3} }$ = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ ( cross- multiply )

$\sqrt{3}$ AD = 6 $\sqrt{3}$ ( divide both sides by $\sqrt{3}$ )

AD = 6 → B
