Answer:

6 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

b - 3a / 9 = a /3

Cross multiply

3(b - 3a) = 9a

Expand

3b - 9a = 9a

Add 9a to both sides

3b = 9a + 9a

3b = 18a

Divide both sides by 3

b = 6a

Ratio of a : b

6 : 1

Jeff worked 51 hours last week. How many straight time and overtime hours did he worke?

OLga [1]

Answer:

B) 40 straight hours - 11 overtime hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), after working 40 hours in a week, any extra hours are counted as overtime hours.

If Jeff worked 51 hours last week, then this means he worked 40 straight hours with 11 additional overtime hours. This makes B the correct answer choice.

Solving right triangles

Sav [38]

<h2>1. Answer:</h2>

A right triangles is a triangle having a 90 degree side. According to the figure, the sides of this triangle are expressed in inches. Therefore, we can find the missing sides and angles as follows:

<u>m∠B:</u>

The sum of the three interior angles of any triangle is 180°, therefore:

$m \angle B + 51^{\circ} + 90^{\circ} = 180^{\circ} \\ \\ \boxed{m \angle B = 39^{\circ}}$

We must use the law of sines as follows:

$\frac{CA}{sin39^{\circ}}=\frac{9}{sin51^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore CA=\frac{9sin39^{\circ}}{sin51^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{CA=7.3in}$

$\frac{AB}{sin90^{\circ}}=\frac{9}{sin51^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore AB=\frac{9sin90^{\circ}}{sin51^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{AB=11.6in}$

<h2>2. Answer:</h2>

According to the figure, the sides of this triangle are expressed in meters. Therefore, we can find the missing sides and angles as follows:

<u>m∠A:</u>

The sum of the three interior angles of any triangle is 180°, therefore:

$m \angle A + 53^{\circ} + 90^{\circ} = 180^{\circ} \\ \\ \boxed{m \angle A = 37^{\circ}}$

We must use the law of sines as follows:

$\frac{CA}{sin53^{\circ}}=\frac{5}{sin90^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore CA=\frac{5sin53^{\circ}}{sin90^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{CA=4.0m}$

$\frac{CB}{sin37^{\circ}}=\frac{5}{sin90^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore CB=\frac{5sin37^{\circ}}{sin90^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{CB=3.0m}$

<h2>3. Answer:</h2>

According to the figure, the sides of this triangle are expressed in miles. Therefore, we can find the missing sides and angles as follows:

<u>m∠B:</u>

The sum of the three interior angles of any triangle is 180°, therefore:

$m \angle A + 28^{\circ} + 90^{\circ} = 180^{\circ} \\ \\ \boxed{m \angle B = 62^{\circ}}$

We must use the law of sines as follows:

$\frac{CB}{sin28^{\circ}}=\frac{29.3}{sin62^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore CB=\frac{29.3sin28^{\circ}}{sin62^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{CA=15.6mi}$

$\frac{AB}{sin90^{\circ}}=\frac{29.3}{sin62^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore AB=\frac{29.3sin90^{\circ}}{sin62^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{AB=33.2mi}$

<h2>4. Answer:</h2>

According to the figure, the sides of this triangle are expressed in miles. Therefore, we can find the missing sides and angles as follows:

<u>m∠A:</u>

The sum of the three interior angles of any triangle is 180°, therefore:

$m \angle A + 24^{\circ} + 90^{\circ} = 180^{\circ} \\ \\ \boxed{m \angle A = 66^{\circ}}$

We must use the law of sines as follows:

$\frac{CA}{sin66^{\circ}}=\frac{14}{sin90^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore CA=\frac{14sin66^{\circ}}{sin90^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{CA=12.8mi}$

$\frac{CB}{sin24^{\circ}}=\frac{14}{sin90^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore CB=\frac{14sin24^{\circ}}{sin90^{\circ}} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{CB=5.7mi}$
