In this problem, you apply principles in trigonometry. Since it is not mentioned, you will not assume that the triangle is a special triangle such as the right triangle. Hence, you cannot use Pythagorean formulas. The only equations you can use is the Law of Sines and Law of Cosines.
For finding side a, you can answer this easily by the Law of Cosines. The equation is
a2=b2 +c2 -2bccosA
a2 = 11^2 + 8^2 -2(11)(8)(cos54)
a2 = 81.55
a = √81.55
a = 9
Then, we use the Law of Sines to find angles B and C. The formula would be
a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC
9/sin54° = 11/sinB
B = 80.4°
9/sin54° = 8/sinC
C = 45.6°
The answer would be: a ≈ 9, C ≈ 45.6, B ≈ 80.4
1 ton = 2,000 pounds
3 tons = 6,000 pounds
$480/6,000 = 0.08
per pound is $0.08
Correct Question:
Which term could be put in the blank to create a fully simplified polynomial written in standard form?
![8x^3y^2 -\ [\ \ ] + 3xy^2 - 4y3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=8x%5E3y%5E2%20-%5C%20%5B%5C%20%5C%20%5D%20%2B%203xy%5E2%20-%204y3)
Options

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
![8x^3y^2 -\ [\ \ ] + 3xy^2 - 4y^3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=8x%5E3y%5E2%20-%5C%20%5B%5C%20%5C%20%5D%20%2B%203xy%5E2%20-%204y%5E3)
Required
Fill in the missing gap
We have that:
![8x^3y^2 -\ [\ \ ] + 3xy^2 - 4y^3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=8x%5E3y%5E2%20-%5C%20%5B%5C%20%5C%20%5D%20%2B%203xy%5E2%20-%204y%5E3)
From the polynomial, we can see that the power of x starts from 3 and stops at 0 while the power of y is constant.
Hence, the variable of the polynomial is x
This implies that the power of x decreases by 1 in each term.
The missing gap has to its left, a term with x to the power of 3 and to its right, a term with x to the power of 1.
This implies that the blank will be filled with a term that has its power of x to be 2
From the list of given options, only
can be used to complete the polynomial.
Hence, the complete polynomial is:
