Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
This shape is a 30-60-90 triangle, which means that the angles of the triangle are each 30°, 60° and 90°. Given that the measures of the angles of the triangle are known, as well as one side, we can find the measures of all the other sides (example attached). A 30-60-90 triangle is special because of the relationship of its sides. The hypotenuse (directly across from the 90° angle) is equal to twice the length (2x) of the shorter leg, in this case labeled 'x' and directly across from the 30° angle. The longer leg, across from the 60° angle, is equal to multiplying the shorter leg (x) by √3 or x√3.
Since the measure of the hypotenuse is given at 18, we can set the expression of that side equal to 18 and solve for x:
2x = 18 or x = 9
What we know:
Petrolyn motor oil is a combination of natural oil and synthetic oil. It contains 7 liters of natural oil for every 5 liters of synthetic oil.
What we need to find:
If 355 liters of synthetic oil are used, how many liters of petrolyn oil will be made?
Set up a proportion to find how much natural oil is used.
7L natural oil/5L synthetic oil = x/355 synthetic oil where x=natural oil
7/5=x/355
(5)(x)=(7)(355) cross multiplied
5x=2485 simplified
5/5x=2485/5 multiplicative inverse
x=497L
Now, add both synthetic oil and natural oil to find amount of petrolyn oil.
355 L synthetic oil + 497 L natural oil= 852 L of petrolyn oil
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5088
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial value of the car is $19340
The rate of decrease is 12.5%
The value of the car after 10 years is given by

Substitute the values to get;




To the nearest dollar we have $5088
The correct answer is choice C
So the first thing you're gonna wanna know is how many miles Brian is riding per day so
16/2= 8
Then you'll want to do the following steps
16 × 5 = 80
8 × 5 = 40
80-40 = 40
Sandi rode 40 more miles then Brian in five days
Hope this helped!
