Step-by-step explanation:

sinU=

​  

 

\sin 85=\frac{20}{x}

sin85=  

x

20

​  

 

x\sin 85=20

xsin85=20

Cross multiply.

\frac{x\sin 85}{\sin 85}=\frac{20}{\sin 85}

Divide each side by sin 85.

x=\frac{20}{\sin 85}=20.0764\approx 20.1\text{ feet}

x=

Meyer restocks on toilet paper Sunday they get 800 rolls. They are open Monday through Sunday 8am to 10pm. They sell 16 rolls pe
ohaa [14]
Remember 800 because that’s your big number / most important.

So they’re open from 8am - 10pm. They’re open for 14 hours a day and they sell 16 rolls per hour.
If one hour is 16 rolls sold , then what is 14?
16 x 14 hours (16 x 14 = 224)
In a whole day they sell 224 rolls.
Monday: 800 rolls - 224 rolls = 576 rolls
Tuesday: 576 rolls - 224 rolls = 352 rolls
Wednesday: 352 rolls - 224 rolls = 128
By Thursday they won’t be able to sell more than 224 because there is only 128 rolls left that will be sold out in 8 hours on that day.
So they will be sold out completely by THURSDAY.
The best time to go to the store is most likely on a Tuesday around 12-1pm

It cost $5.25 for a bottle of 150 vitamins. if the cost varies directly with the number of vitamins in the bottle, what should a
lianna [129]

Answer: $8.75 for 250 vitamins.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much each vitamin costs we can divide $5.25 by 150.

5.25/150 = 0.035. So each vitamin is equal to $0.035.

We can then multiply the cost of 1 vitamin by 250.

0.035 x 250 = 8.75 or $8.75.

We can also make an equation for this problem. Let the total cost be equal to y and each vitamin equal to x.

y = 0.035x

So the equation above states that the total cost, y, is the amount of vitamins that are bought.

What is the distance between point W and X to nearest hundredth?​
quester [9]

Answer:  16.97

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

To find the distance from W to X, you can use the distance formula ...or... draw a right triangle using W and X as the vertices and use Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse. I will solve using the latter.

The y-distance from W to X is 12.

The x-distance from W to X is 12.

hypotenuse² = 12² + 12²

                      = 144 + 144

                      = 288

hypotenuse = \sqrt{288}

                     = 16.97
