Some people advise that in very cold weather, you should keep the gas tank in your car more than half full. Irene's car had 5.

5 gallons in the 14-gallon tank on the coldest day of the year. filled the tank with gas that cost $3.50 per gallon. How much did Irene spend on gas?

14-5.5= 8.5 gal she needs to fill
$3.5x8.5= $29.75

Answer:
Irene spends $29.75 on gas.

If RV=w and SU=w–30, what is the value of w?

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

w = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

the midsegment SU is half the measure of side RV, then

SU = RV , so

w - 30 = w ( multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction )

2w - 60 = w ( subtract w from both sides )

w - 60 = 0 ( add 60 to both sides )

w = 60

Find the length of side a.<br> 10<br> A<br> 6<br> A. 4<br> B. 64<br> C. V 136<br> D. 8<br> PREVIOUS

dedylja [7]

Answer:

D .8

Step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse (h) = 10

base (b) = 6

perpendicular (p) = a= ?

We know by using Pythagoras theorem we get

p = √ h² - b²

a = √ 10² - 6²

a = √ 64

a = 8

Hope it will help :)

Jodi is cutting out pieces of paper that measure 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches from a larger sheet of paper that has an area of 1000

jolli1 [7]

8 1/2 or 8.5 x11 = 93.5 square inches thus,
1000 square inches divided by 93.5 square inches
1000/93.5 ~10.695
that mean that Jodi can cut out about 10 pieces of paper measuring 8 1/2 x 11 inches.

Each side of WRD is 3 inches long what id the measure of each angle in WRD

ira [324]

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If each side of the triangle WRD is 3 inches long, then WRD is an equilateral triangle, meaning all angles are the same size. Since there are 180 degrees in a triangle, 180/3 = 60 degrees.

Measure the lengths of the sides of ∆ABC in GeoGebra, and compute the sine and the cosine of ∠A and ∠B. Verify your calculations

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

$Sin \angle A =0.80$

$Cos \angle A=0.60$

$Sin \angle B =0.60$

$Cos \angle B=0.80$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

I will answer this question using the attached triangle

Solving (a): Sine and Cosine A

In trigonometry:

$Sin \theta =\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$ and

$Cos \theta =\frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

So:

$Sin \angle A =\frac{BC}{BA}$

Substitute values for BC and BA

$Sin \angle A =\frac{8cm}{10cm}$

$Sin \angle A =\frac{8}{10}$

$Sin \angle A =0.80$

$Cos \angle A=\frac{AC}{BA}$

Substitute values for AC and BA

$Cos \angle A=\frac{6cm}{10cm}$

$Cos \angle A=\frac{6}{10}$

$Cos \angle A=0.60$

Solving (b): Sine and Cosine B

In trigonometry:

$Sin \theta =\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$ and

$Cos \theta =\frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

So:

$Sin \angle B =\frac{AC}{BA}$

Substitute values for AC and BA

$Sin \angle B =\frac{6cm}{10cm}$

$Sin \angle B =\frac{6}{10}$

$Sin \angle B =0.60$

$Cos \angle B=\frac{BC}{BA}$

Substitute values for BC and BA

$Cos \angle B=\frac{8cm}{10cm}$

$Cos \angle B=\frac{8}{10}$

$Cos \angle B=0.80$

Using a calculator:

$A = 53^{\circ}$

So:

$Sin(53^{\circ}) =0.7986$

$Sin(53^{\circ}) =0.80$ -- approximated

$Cos(53^{\circ}) = 0.6018$

$Cos(53^{\circ}) = 0.60$ -- approximated

$B = 37^{\circ}$

So:

$Sin(37^{\circ}) = 0.6018$

$Sin(37^{\circ}) = 0.60$ --- approximated

$Cos(37^{\circ}) = 0.7986$

$Cos(37^{\circ}) = 0.80$ --- approximated
