Answer:

365.73 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Angle of elevation (western high) = 41.25°

Angle of elevation (pine high) = 23.125

From the diagram attached :

Angle A = 180 - (41.25 + 13.125) = 115.625

Using the Sine rule :

a / SinA = b/SinB = c/sin C

512 / sin 115.625 = b / sin 41.25

554.68738 = b / sin 41.25

554.68738 * sin 41. 25 = b

b = 365.73 miles

Find the sum of 6a - 5b + c, -2a +4b -2c​
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

4a-b-c

Step-by-step explanation:

we first look at the letters of each number. if there is only a letter, there is an imaginary 1 in front of it. we need to make sure that we add the numbers that have the exact same letters because they are known as like terms. we cannot add 6a and 4b because the letters are different and they are known as unlike terms. When we add numbers with the same letter ONLY the number changes

1. If the same number is added to the numerator and subtracted from the denominator of 23/12, the resulting fraction is equivale
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The number is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the reciprocal of 2/3

Remember that when multiply a number by its reciprocal, the result is 1

so

The reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2

step 2

Let

x-----> the number added to the numerator and denominator

\frac{23+x}{12-x}=\frac{3}{2}

Solve for x

2(23+x)=3(12-x)\\46+2x=36-3x\\2x+3x=36-46\\5x=-10\\x=-2

step 3

verify

\frac{23+x}{12-x}

substitute x=-2

\frac{23-2}{12+2}

\frac{21}{14}

Simplify

\frac{3}{2} ----> is ok

therefore

The number is -2

Sara sold $3350 in ads,

Kenny sold $1368, and

Leila sold $456

(a)

total sale=3350+1368+456=$5174

Sara's fraction=3350/5174=0.6475

Kenny's fraction=1368/5174=0.2644

Leila's fraction=456/5174=0.0881

(b)

total bonus=$150

Sara's bonus=150*0.6475=$97.12

Kenny's bonus=150*0.2644=$39.66

Leila's bonus=150*0.0881=$13.22
