Answer: 20.1

Step-by-step explanation:

sinU=  

hypotenuse

opposite

​  

=  

x

20

​  

 

\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}

sin85

xsin85

​  

=  

sin85

20

​  

 

Divide each side by sin 85.

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

x=  

sin85

20

​  

=20.0764≈20.1 feet

Type into calculator and roundto the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answer:

(D)330

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of a random sample of 80 students

44 considered themselves to have AVERAGE fitness habits.

Relative Frequency of Students with average fitness habits=44/80

Therefore, out of the total population of 600 students

Expected Number of Students with average fitness habits

The sum of two numbers is 2. Their difference is -16. What is the first number?
Helen [10]

Answer: The first number is 4

Explanation: Since the sum of the two numbers is ten, x + y = 10

Also, since the difference of the two numbers is two, then x - y = 2

Since x - y = 2, another way to write that is x = y + 2 and since x is exactly the same as y + 2, we can plug in "y + 2" in place of x in the first equation (x + y = 10) to get (y + 2) + y = 10. Then we solve this equation by combining like-terms.

2y + 2 = 10

2y = 8

y = 4

Since x = y + 2, x = 4 + 2 or x = 6

I hope this helped you!
