It seems like you just broke your keyboard when making this
In order to fully understand the problem, it is best to sketch it. Sketching the system, we will see that the system forms a triangle where the angle of elevation is 36 degrees. We are asked to find the hypotenuse. We can use a trigonometric function. It should be noted that one of the sides should also be given in order to calculate the hypotenuse. Trigonometric functions that can be used are:
sin(theta) = opposite / hypotenuse
cos(theta) = adjacent / hypotenuse
I think I got it, but just in case...tell me the whole thing again. I wasn't listening.
Need more info, also correct grammar
6 × 10 = 60$ per 6 pounds
14 × 8 = 112$ per 14 pounds
you'll get 20 pounds of the candy mixture and will cost 172
172/20
