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.

How many adult tickets were sold if each adult ticket sold was $6 and each student ticket was $4.50 and 260 tickets were sold fo
erik [133]

Answer:

   Adult tickets sold:   156

Step-by-step explanation:

   Adult ticket:   x

Student ticket:  y

x + y = 260                  ===>   -6(x + y = 260)     ===>  -6x -6y = -1560

6x + 4.5y = 1404         ===>                                           6x + 4.5y = 1404

                                                                                  ________________

add the two equations to eliminate a variable:                  -1.5y = -156

divide by -1.5:                                                                              y = 104

substitution to find x:

      x + y = 260

  x + 104 = 260

            x = 156

Find the compound interest on 800 at 5% per annum for 2 years.​
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

C = 82

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

R = 5\% -- Rate

P = 800 -- Principal

N = 2 -- Time

Required

Determine the compound interest

First, we calculate the Amount (A)

A = P(1 + R)^N

A = 800*(1 + 5\%)^2

Express % as decimal

A = 800*(1 + 0.05)^2

A = 800*(1.05)^2

A = 882

The compound interest (C) is then calculated as:

C = A -P i.e. Amount - Principal

C = 882 - 800

C = 82
