Answer: length of DE is about 3.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:  A calculator is necessary!

DE is the unknown hypotenuse of the triangle

get the sine of 23° = 0.3907311285

Use the equation for sine

<em>sin = o/h</em> .

To find h,  Substitute values for sin and o.  O is EC, Opposite the 23° angle D

<em>0.3907311285 = 1.3/h</em> multiply both sides by h

h(0.3907311285) = 1.3 divide both sides by 0.3907311285

h = 1.3/0.3907311285

3.327096065 = h, the length of the hypotenuse, DE.

Charlie drove 864 miles in 12 hours. at the same rate, how long would it take him to drive 504 miles?
katrin2010 [14]
We can solve this by setting up a proportion where 864/12 = 504/x. We cross multiply and get 864x = 504 * 12. So 864x = 6048. Divide by 864 on both sides, x = 7.

It would take Charlie 7 hours to drive 504 miles.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer: 1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet

2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot.

3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet

4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.

5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.

5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.

Answer

h = 8.12 cm

Explanation

Area of a parallelogram = b • h

We know the area is 20.3 cm^2 and that the base is 2.5cm.

Therefore 20.3 cm^2 = 2.5h

20.3/2.5 = 8.12 cm

h = 8.12 cm

Sage and Tom started the month with the same number of talk minutes on their cell phones. Sage talked for 7 minutes with her dad
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

a. Sage and Tom have the same number of talk minutes left on their cell phone plans.

b. y = x - 7

Explanation:

Sage talked for 7 minutes with her dad.

Tom talked for 4 minutes with a friend and 3 more minutes with his mom which means he spoke for :

= 4 + 3

= 7 minutes

They both spoke for 7 minutes and therefore have the same amount of time left.

Algebraic expression:

Assuming the time Tom started with is denoted by x and the time he is left with is denoted by y.

The expression is:

y = x - 7
