Answer:

\displaystyle y=2\sqrt{6}

\displaystyle x=2\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric Ratios </u>

The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios.

The longest side of the right triangle is called the hypotenuse and the other two sides are the legs.

Selecting any of the acute angles as a reference, it has an adjacent side and an opposite side. The trigonometric ratios are defined upon those sides.

The image provided shows a right triangle whose hypotenuse is given. We are required to find the value of both legs.

Let's pick the angle of 30°. Its adjacent side is y. We can use the cosine ration, which is defined as follows:

\displaystyle \cos 30^\circ=\frac{\text{adjacent leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}

\displaystyle \cos 30^\circ=\frac{y}{4\sqrt{2}}

Solving for y:

y=4\sqrt{2}\cos 30^\circ

Since:

\cos 30^\circ=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

\displaystyle y=4\sqrt{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle y=2\sqrt{6}

Now we use the sine ratio:

\displaystyle \sin 30^\circ=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}

\displaystyle \sin 30^\circ=\frac{x}{4\sqrt{2}}

Solving for x:

x=4\sqrt{2}\sin 30^\circ

Since:

\sin 30^\circ=\frac{1}{2}:

\displaystyle x=4\sqrt{2}\frac{1}{2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle x=2\sqrt{2}

The choices are not clear, but it seems like the correct answer is C.

\boxed{\displaystyle y=2\sqrt{6}}

\boxed{\displaystyle x=2\sqrt{2}}

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

We know that 30/25 is 1.2 or 1 1/5. SO if we divide 20 by that then we'll get 16.6667. So I won't give you the answer because its best that you learn to do this yourself because its more beneficial than telling you. What you have left is 16.6667=4x-4. Combine like terms and you'll get your answer. But if your still stuck then you can just let me know and I'll help you as much as I can.

Rachel works at a bookstore. On Tuesday, she sold twice as many books as she did on Monday. On Wednesday, she sold 6 fewer books
natali 33 [55]
Let m = the amount books Rachel sold on Monday.
then t = the amount books Rachel sold on Tuesday.<span>
then w = </span><span>the amount books Rachel sold on Wednesday.

On Tuesday she sold twice as she did on Monday.
 t = m * 2

On Wednesday she sold 6 fewer books than she did on Tuesday
w = t - 6

Now for the fun.

t = m * 2
w = t - 6

Substitute t for real value

w = m * 2 - 6

Now solve for m.

w - 6 = m * 2 <-- Transpose the 6
(w-6)/2 = m <-- Transpose the 2.
m = (w-2)/2 < The Law of Reflexive Property of Equality</span>
