Answer:

The distance PR is 21.6 Km

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attached document for explanation.

Also, I applied Cosine rule to determine the distance PR, since  i have an angle (Q) in between two given sides of the triangle.

There were 3232 volunteers to donate blood. Unfortunately, nn of the volunteers did not meet the health requirements, so they co
Degger [83]

Answer:

\frac{470}{32-n}  

Step-by-step explanation:  

We have been given that there were 32 volunteers to donate blood. Unfortunately, n of the volunteers did not meet the health requirements, so they couldn't donate.            

So the number of volunteers that donated blood will be 32-n.

We are also told that the rest of the volunteers donated 470 milliliters each.

To find the units of blood donated by each of the volunteers we will divide total units of donated blood by number of volunteers, who donated the blood (32-n).

\text{Millimeters of blood donated by each volunteer}=\frac{470}{32-n}  

Therefore, each of the volunteers donated \frac{470}{32-n} millimeters of blood.

How do you solve law of cosine?​
Effectus [21]

Draw and label a standard Oblique Triangle, as we’ve done in our previous lessons.

Determine the given congruence, either SAS or SSS, and pick the equation that helps you solve for either a missing side or angle.

Plug into your chosen equation and solve.

The "Law of Cosines" can be used to calculate one side of a triangle when the angle opposite and the other two sides are known. The "Law of Cosines" can be expressed as c2 = a2 + b2 - 2 a b cos C (1)

The cosine rule is an extension of this mathematic principal that makes it effective for non-right triangles and states that in regard to a certain angle, the square of the side of the triangle opposite that angle is equal to the squares of the other two sides added together, minus two times both..

Ryan spent 1/3 of his monthly salary for rent and 1/7 of his monthly salary for his utility bill. If $759 was left, what was his
musickatia [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>G</u><u>i</u><u>v</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u> </u><u>Inform</u><u>ation</u><u> </u><u>:</u></h3>

  • Ryan spent 1/3 of his monthly salary for rent and 1/7 of his monthly salary for his utility bill.
  • Remaining money = $759

<h3><u>T</u><u>o</u><u> </u><u>calculate</u><u> </u><u>:</u></h3>

  • His monthly salary.

<h3><u>C</u><u>a</u><u>l</u><u>c</u><u>u</u><u>l</u><u>a</u><u>t</u><u>i</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u> </u><u>:</u></h3>

Let us assume his monthly salary as x. According to the question,

➝ Money spent on rent + Money spent for utility bill + Remaining money = His salary

\longrightarrow\sf {\dfrac{1}{3}x + \dfrac{1}{7}x + 759 = x} \\

\longrightarrow\sf {\dfrac{7x + 3x + 15939}{21}= x} \\

\longrightarrow\sf {\dfrac{10x+ 15939}{21}= x} \\

\longrightarrow\sf {10x+ 15939= 21x} \\

\longrightarrow\sf {15939= 21x - 10x} \\

\longrightarrow\sf {15939= 11x} \\

\longrightarrow\sf {\cancel{\dfrac{15939}{11}}= x} \\

\longrightarrow\underline{\boxed{\bf {1449= x}}} \\

<u>Therefore,</u><u> </u><u>his</u><u> </u><u>monthly</u><u> </u><u>income</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>$</u><u>1</u><u>4</u><u>4</u><u>9</u><u>.</u>

Solve the following system of equations by substitution and select the correct answer below:
Alexxx [7]
Okay so for substitution, chose one of  of the equations to solve for x. Let's solve for the second one. So you have 2x-8y=32.
Start by adding 8y to both sides:
 2x=8y+32.
Then you have to get x by itself so you divide both sides by 2 which will give you:
 x=4y+16.

Now you have:
6x-4y=36
x=4y+16 (this was 2x-8y=32)

Now, plug in the second equation to the first one. You would do so by plugging in the second equation to where you see x. You would have:
6(4y+16)-4y=36

Now, multiply the 6 with the 4y and 16. you would then have:
24y+96-4y=36.

Now, combine your like terms to get:
20y+96=36
Then subtract 96 to both sides:
20y=-60
Then divide both sides so that you have y all by itself:
y=-30!

You now have the answer for y, so now plug what you got for y into the other equation: x+4y=16: 
x+4(-30)=60
Solve for x:
x-120=60 
add 120 to both sides:
x=180!
so Your answer is Y=-30 and X=180

I hope this helped:)
