Answer:

x= 256.8(rounded)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, use tangent because you have adjacent and are trying to find the opposite side from the angle. Tan(15°)= x/300 so x=300tan(15°)

It was negative, but you probably take absolute value.

Answer:

G(x,y)=(-4,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the section formula:

$(x,y)=\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}, \dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)$

Given:

$F(x_1,y_1)=(0, -10)\\H(x_2,y_2)=(-6, 5)\\FG:GH=m:n=2:1$

We substitute the values to get:

$G(x,y)=\left(\dfrac{2*-6+1*0}{2+1}, \dfrac{2*5+1*-10}{2+1}\right)\\=\left(\dfrac{-12}{3}, \dfrac{10-10}{3}\right)\\=\left(\dfrac{-12}{3}, \dfrac{0}{3}\right)\\\\G(x,y)=(-4,0)$

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar.

Answer:

Using the ratio and proportion method, we find that on an average 1.875 rooms can be painted per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept: Use the method of ratio and proportion. Given that for 2/5 gallons of paint, we can paint 3/4 of rooms. So, for one gallon of paint, divide 2/5 by 3/4.

2/5 gallons of paint = 3/4 rooms

1 gallon of paint = $\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{2}{5} } = \frac{15}{8} =1.875$ rooms
