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.

It is believed that 3/4 of our dreams involve people that we know. Write an expression to describe the number of dreams that fea

professor190 [17]

3/4 of dreams = 3/4 of 'd'

The expression is $\frac{3}{4}d$

When d = 28
Number of dreams = $\frac{3}{4}(28)= \frac{3*28}{4}=21$

Answer: 21 dreams

Tia is planning a sailing party for her friends. The boat rental is $150 plus an

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

16 people

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract the cost of the rental from the amount of money:

$400-$150 = $250

Therefore Tia has $250 to spend for additional people. Then if each person is $15, divide the remaining amount of money by the amount of money per person:

$250/$15 = 16.67

Since you can't have 0.67 of a person she can have 16 people go with her.

This can also be modeled by this inequality:

$150 + 15x \leqslant 400$
