Let x be the weight of the candy in pounds, then 0.9x is the weight of the milk chocolate in pounds

The weight of the caramels in the candy is 3 pounds, so

 

An equation that can be used find the total number of pounds of milk chocolate and caramels in the candy is

0.9x + 3 = x ⇒ x = 30

So there are 0.9(30) = 27 pounds of milk chocolate in the candy.

hope this helps

36.2 rounding to the nearest tenth​
guapka [62]

This is what I found

Step-by-step explanation: To round 36.2 to the nearest tenth consider the hundredths' value of 36.2, which is 0 and equal or more than 5. Therefore, the tenths value of 36.2 increases by 1 to 3.

Anyone know how to find the area with the missing hypotenuse? Thank you!!!
suter [353]

Answer:

15 {cm}^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

There's no need of hypotenuse for finding area of the triangle. To find the area of a triangle ,

Formula is =\frac{1}{2}  \times base \times height

Base of the triangle = 10 cm

Height of the traingle = 3 cm

Area of the triangle = \frac{1}{2}  \times 10 \times 3 = 15 {cm}^{2}

You're standing on the ground 7777 meters away from the bottom of a tall tower. The tower itself is 346346 meters tall. What is
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

88.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

First, visualize. Assuming that the tower is at a perfectly 90° angle to the ground, you have a right triangle. We will call this triangle ΔABC where A is where you are, B is the top of the tower, and C is the base of the tower. Now we know the following:

∠A = ?

∠B = ?

∠C =  90

a = 346346

b = 7777

c = ?

Note: Triangles are labeled with three pairs of letters: a, b and c and A, B and C. The lower case letters, a, b and c represent the sides, and the upper case letters are the angles that are directly opposite of those sides. (see attached reference)

c is easy, c is the hypotenuse, so you can use the following equation to find the hypotenuse:

a² + b² = c²

Rearranged:

c = ± \sqrt{a^{2} +b^{2} }

Substitute a and b:

c = ±\sqrt{346346^{2} +7777^{2} }

Comes out to ~346433.3 meters.

Now if we use the Law of Sines:

\frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{b}{sinB} = \frac{c}{sinC}

We can use c and a, since we're trying to find what angle A is, so the ratio is set up as:

\frac{346346}{sinA} = \frac{346433.3}{sinC}

Well we know that C = 90, and so sin(90) in degrees (as opposed to radians) is 1. So then the set of equations is now:

\frac{346346}{sinA} = \frac{346433.3}{1}

Cross Multiply to get rid of the fractions:

346346 = 346433.3 * sin(A)

Divide:

\frac{346346}{346433.3} = sin(A)

Using a calculator, if you take the arcsin of that fraction, you will get what angle A is supposed to be:

arcsin( \frac{346346}{346433.3} ) = ∠A = 88.7°

How do you do -19+C/3=8 can someone teach how to solve this problem?
ki77a [65]
You're looking for c, so you want to isolate it or get it by itself. To get rid of the /3 you multiply since the opposite of division is multiplication and to get rid of it, you do the opposite (like -9 you would add 9 to get it to 0). Now you are left with -19+c = 24 (the 24 is 8*3 because what you do to one side you do to the other. Now you get c by itself so you add 19 to both sides which leaves you with C= 43. Sorry if this was confusing!
