Answer:

169

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a proportion:

72/85=x/200

Solve for x

(72)(200)=85x

x=(72)(200)/85

x=169.41≈ 169

She can make 169 of 200 free throws.

A ball is dropped from a height of 25feet and allowed to bounce until it comes to a rest. Each time the ball bounces it rebounds

Answer:

$H3 = 25 * \frac{4}{5} * \frac{4}{5}* \frac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Initial\ Height =25$

$Rebound = \frac{4}{5}$

Required

Determine the height at the third rebound

At first rebound;

$H1 = 25 * \frac{4}{5}$

Second rebound

$H2 = 25 * \frac{4}{5}* \frac{4}{5}$

Third rebound

$H3 = 25 * \frac{4}{5} * \frac{4}{5}* \frac{4}{5}$

Hence; the equation is:

$H3 = 25 * \frac{4}{5} * \frac{4}{5}* \frac{4}{5}$

Solving further;

$H3 = 12.8\ ft$

3. A sign company is building a sign with the dimensions shown. What is the area, in square feet, of the sign? Round to the near

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

84.87sq ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ABC be the triangle and AD be the perpendicular on BC such that BD=DC=7ft.

Now, it is known that $\frac{DC}{AC}=cos60^{0}$

$AC=\frac{7}{\frac{1}{2}}$

$AC=7ft$

Now, in triangle ADC, we have

$(AC)^{2}=(AD)^{2}+(DC)^{2}$

$(14)^{2}=(AD)^{2}+(7)^{2}$

$196-49=(AD)^{2}$

$AD=12.12ft$

Now, area of the triangle= $\frac{1}{2}{\times}b{\times}h$

= $\frac{1}{2}{\times}14{\times}12.12$

= $84.87sq ft$

Thus, area of the building is 84.87sq ft.
