4 0

Answer:

To do this in my head: 60km = 40km+20km

So 40km/8km = 5

40 k is approximately 5x5miles = 25 miles

20k is half that or 12.5 miles

60 is about 25+12.5 miles

or 37.5 miles

Why can't the input value be negative?

ddd [48]

If you are working with time or days, you can't put in a negative value because if you are doing an experiment, you can't go back in time to do that experiment to gather data. (Time for the most part considered to be an input value so that's why I used it as an example.)

2b^2+4b–2=0 what is the answer?

s2008m [1.1K]

$2b^2+4b-2=0\\
2(b^2+2b-1)=0\\
2(b^2+2b+1-2)=0\\
2((b+1)^2-2)=0\\
2(b+1)^2-4=0\\\
2(b+1)^2=4\\\
(b+1)^2=2\\
b+1=-\sqrt2 \vee b+1=\sqrt2\\
b=-1-\sqrt2 \vee b=-1+\sqrt2

The tee for the sixth hole on a golf course is 305 yards from the tee. On that hole, Marsha hooked her ball to the left, as sket

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Correct answer is option D. 96.4 yd.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached figure for labeling of the given diagram.

ABC is a triangle with the following labeling:

A is the hole, B is the Tee and C is the point where the ball is.

Sides are labeled as:

$a =255\ yd\\c = 305\ yd\\\angle B =17^\circ$

To find:

Side $b = ?$

Solution:

Here, we have one angle and two sides . Third side of the triangle is to be found opposite to the given angle.

We can use cosine formula here to find the value of the unknown side.

$cos B = \dfrac{a^{2}+c^{2}-b^{2}}{2ac}$

Putting all the values:

$cos 17 = \dfrac{255^{2}+305^{2}-b^{2}}{2\times 255\times 305}\\\Rightarrow 0.956 = \dfrac{65025+93025-b^{2}}{155550}\\\Rightarrow 148753.2= 158050-b^{2}\\\Rightarrow b^{2}= 158050-148753.2\\\Rightarrow b^{2}= 9296.795\\\Rightarrow b= 96.42\ yd$

So, the distance between the Ball and hole is 96.42 yd

Correct answer is option D. 96.4 yd.
