<span>Total households = 127,900,000
Proportion of households having remote control and not
7 : 3
7x + 3x = 127,900,000
10x = 127,900,000
x = 12,790,000
Households having remote control = 7x
= 7 X 12,790,000
= 89,530,000
Answer:
89,530,000 households have TV remote controls.</span>
You are asking for the condition needed for the
<span>two segments to be perpendicular to each other. </span>
<span>If the slope of one segment is m, then the slope of a perpendicular segment would be -1/m </span>
<span>this means that m2 = -1/m and so m2 x m = -1 </span>
<span>If you look carefully at your choices, the 3rd answer involves the two slope and has the -1. It's </span>
<span>the correct answer.</span>
Let n = the unknown number
"the difference between a number and 11" translates to n - 11
"3 more than half the number" translates to 1/2n + 3
The word "is" becomes the equal sign.
n - 11 = 1/2n + 3
We know that
Applying the law of cosines:
<span>c</span>²<span> = a</span>²<span> + b</span>²<span> - 2abcos(C) </span>
<span>where: </span>
<span>a,b and c are sides of the triangle and C is the angle opposite side c </span>
<span>that is </span>
<span>150</span>²<span> = 240</span>²<span> + 200</span>²<span> - 2(240)(200)cos(C) </span>
<span>solve for C </span>
<span>22,500 = 57,600 + 40,000 - 96,000cos(C) </span>
<span>22,500-57,600-40,000 = -96,000cos(C)
</span>-75,100=-96,000cos (C)
cos (C)=0.7822916
C=arc cos(0.7822916)--------> C=38.53°°
<span>hence, </span>
<span>he should turn in the direction of island b by
180 - 38.53 </span><span>= 141.47 degrees</span>
