<h3>Answer: B) 569 feet</h3>

========================================================

Work Shown:

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(6) = a/5440

5440*sin(6) = a

a = 5440*sin(6)

a = 568.634840176034

a = 569 feet, which shows why <u>choice B</u> is the answer.

This value is approximate. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. One way to check is to compute sin(30) and you should get 0.5

side note: 569 feet is roughly equal to 0.1078 miles.

A car rental agency advertised renting a car for $24.95 per day and $0.28 per mile. If Greg rents this car for 3 days, how many

kirza4 [7]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Greg rent the car for 3 day so 3 x 24.95= $74.85 off the top without driving a single mile.

If he has a budget of $250, his remainder budget for mileage is $250 - $74.85 = $175.15.

How many miles he can travel at $0.28/mile with $175.15 budget?

Greg can drive $175.15/0.28 = 625.53 or 625 Miles

How do I use elimination for the equations-x+5y=20 and 12y= 2x+ 60?

Slav-nsk [51]

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-x+5y=20\\12y=2x+60&\text{subtract 2x from both sides}\end{array}\right\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-x+5y=20\\-2x+12y=60&\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-x+5y=20\\x-6y=-30\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad\qquad-y=-10\to\boxed{y=10}\\\\\text{Put the value of y to the second equation:}\\\\x-6(10)=-30\\x-60=-30\qquad\text{add 60 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=30}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{x=30\ and\ y=10\to(30,\ 10)}$
