Answer:

3.33 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the Law of Sines to solve this, which states that for a triangle with lengths a, b, and c and angles A, B, and C:

$\frac{a}{sinA} =\frac{b}{sinB} =\frac{c}{sinC}$

Here, we can say that a = 17, A = 103, and B = 11 and we want to find b:

$\frac{17}{sin(103)} =\frac{b}{sin(11)}$

b * sin(103) = 17 * sin(11)

b ≈ 3.33 cm

The answer is about 3.33 cm.

Answer:

3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using sine law

u/sinU = t/sinT

t = sinT × u/sinU

t = sin(11) × 17/sin(103)

t = 3.3290769479

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}=\dfrac{1425}{67108864}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left(2^8\cdot5^{-5}\cdot19^0\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{5^{-2}}{2^3}\right)^4\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\ \text{and}\ a^0=1\ \text{and}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\left(2^8\cdot\dfrac{1}{5^5}\cdot1\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{\frac{1}{5^2}}{2^3}\right)^4\cdot228=\left(\dfrac{2^8}{5^5}\right)^{-2}\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{2^35^2}\right)^4\cdot228$

$=\dfrac{(2^8)^{-2}}{(5^5)^{-2}}\cdot\dfrac{1^4}{(2^3)^4(5^2)^4}\cdot228=\dfrac{2^{-16}}{5^{-10}}\cdot\dfrac{1}{2^{12}5^8}\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^n=\dfrac{1}{a^{-n}}\to\dfrac{1}{a^n}=a^{-n}\\\\=2^{-16}\cdot5^{10}\cdot2^{-12}\cdot5^{-8}\cdot228\\\\\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=2^{-16+(-12)}\cdot5^{10+(-8)}\cdot228=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot228\\\\=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot4\cdot57=2^{-28}\cdot5^2\cdot2^2\cdot57=2^{-28+2}\cdot5^2\cdot57\\\\=2^{-26}\cdot5^2\cdot57=\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}$

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{5^2\cdot57}{2^{26}}=\dfrac{1425}{67108864}}$

Two trains leave a town at the same time heading in opposite directions. One train is traveling 12 mph faster than the

klemol [59]

Answer:

I'm going to paint you a picture in words of what this looks like on paper. We have a train leaving from a point on your paper heading straight west. We have another train leaving from the same point on your paper heading straight east. This is the "opposite directions" that your problem gives you.

Now let's make a table:

distance = rate * time

Train 1

Train 2

We will fill in this table from the info in the problem then refer back to our drawing. It says that one train is traveling 12 mph faster than the other train. We don't know how fast "the other train" is going, so let's call that rate r. If the first train is travelin 12 mph faster, that rate is r + 12. Let's put that into the table

distance = rate * time

Train 1 r

Train 2 (r + 12)

Then it says "after 2 hours", so the time for both trains is 2 hours:

distance = rate * time

Train 1 r * 2

Train 2 (r + 12) * 2

Since distance = rate * time, the distance (or length of the arrow pointing straight west) for Train 1 is 2r. The distance (or length of the arrow pointing straight east) for Train 2 is 2(r + 12) which is 2r + 24. The distance between them (which is also the length of the whole entire arrow) is 232. Thus:

2r + 2r + 24 = 232 and

4r = 208 so

r = 52

This means that Train 1 is traveling 52 mph and Train 2 is traveling 12 miles per hour faster than that at 64 mph

Julie gives 7 pieces of candy to each of her friends. If Julie gives all of her candy away, which amount of candy could have bee

True [87]

To find the answer to this problem, you just need to figure out which total amount of candy is divisible by 7.

161/7=23
162/7=23.1428571429
145/7=20.7142857143
128/7=18.2857142857

Obviously, Julie cannot give a fraction of an amount of candy to someone. So that rules out that she had 162, 145, or 128 pieces of candy.

The only amount of candies that Julie could have that is divisible by 7 is 161 candies, which means that 161 is your answer.
