I think the answer to this is a rate
Answer:
M = 29
27.31838095 = n
16.8511209 = p
Step-by-step explanation:
M = 180 -33-118 = 29
We can use the rule of sines
sin A sin B sin C
------------ = ---------- = ------------
a b c
sin 118 sin 29
------------ = ----------
n 15
Using cross products
15 sin 118 = n sin 29
Divide by sin 29
15 sin 118 / sin 29 = n
27.31838095 = n
sin 33 sin 29
------------ = ----------
p 15
Using cross products
15 sin 33 = p sin 29
Divide by sin 29
15 sin 33 / sin 29 = p
16.8511209 = p
X=area of Sahara.
y=area of the Gobi Desert.
We suggest this system equations:
x+y=4000000
x=7y
solve by susbstitution method.
(7y)+y=4,000,000
8y=4,000,000
y=4,000,000 / 8=500,000
x=7y
x=7(500,000)=3,500,000
The area of Sahara=3,500,00 miles².
The area of the Gobi Desert=500,000 miles²
To check:
Te sum of their areas is : 3,500,000 miles²+500,000 miles²=4,000,000 miles²
Te area of sahara (3,500,000 miles²) is 7 times the area of the Gobi Desert (7*500,000 miles²=3,500,000 miles²).
