Answer:

x ≈ 61.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos71° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{20}{x} ( multiply both sides by x )

x × cos71° = 20 ( divide both sides by cos71° )

x = \frac{20}{cos71} ≈ 61.4 ( to the nearest tenth )

<h3>Answer:  61.4</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

Use the cosine ratio to get the following,

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(71) = 20/x

x*cos(71) = 20

x = 20/cos(71)

x = 61.431 approximately

x = 61.4

Notes:

  • The hypotenuse is always the longest side of any right triangle, so x must be larger than 20.
  • Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

Deandra is doing her math homework. Out of 24 problems total, she completed the first 12 problems in 1 hour and the last 12 in 3
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

6 problems per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Total problems = 24

she completed the first 12 problems in 1 hour

The last 12 in 3 hours.

Total time = 1 hour + 3 hours

= 4 hours

unit rate for all 24 problems = total number of problems / total time taken

= 24 problems / 4 hours

= 6 problems per hour

Can someone please explain the steps to solve these questions.
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Alright! So to solve these questions, you need to find out the difference. You can use ratios to solve this. For example, question #25:

A class had 30 pupils at the beginning of this school term, but now has 5 more pupils. What is the percent of increase?

The question is basically asking how much 5 is in ratio to 30. So just divide 5 (the given amount) by 30 (the total amount). The answer is 0.16, or 16%

a group of friends went to lunch. the bill, before sales tax and tip, was $37.50. a sales tax of 8% was added. the group then ti
valentina_108 [34]
First, there was $37.50.
Then, there was a tax of 8%.
Then, there was a tip of 18%.
Since the tip is after the tax, it's not going to affect it, and we can essentially ignore it.

The real question here is just <em>what is 8% of $37.50?</em>

To find the percent of something, first you need to put the percent as a decimal.

8% in decimal form is 0.08 (If you think about it literally, they're both 8 hundredths)

Finally, just multiply the percent in decimal form by the number.

37.50 dollars × 0.08 = 3 dollars.<em />
