PLS HELP ME PLEASETo Measure The Distance Across A Lake, A Surveyor Has Taken The Measurements Shown

Answers

Answer 1

Using the law of cosines, it is found that the distance across the lake is of 978.5 feet.

What is the law of cosines?

The law of cosines states that we can find the angle C of a triangle as follows:

[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\cos{C}[/tex]

in which:

c is the length of the side opposite to angle C.a and b are the lengths of the other sides.

In this problem, the parameters are:

a = 800, b = 900, C = 70º.

Hence the distance across the lake is c, found as follows:

[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\cos{C}[/tex]

c² = 800² + 900² - 2(800)(900)cos(70º)

c² = 957491

[tex]c = \sqrt{957491}[/tex]

c = 978.5.

The distance across the lake is of 978.5 feet.

If F(x)=-x+6 and g(x)=3x^2-x+3 find the value of (g•f)(8)

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -374

Step-by-step explanation:

  f(8) = -8 +6 = -2

  g(8) = (3x -1)x +3 = (3·8 -1)8 +3 = 23·8 +3 = 187

Then the product is ...

  (g•f)(8) = g(8)•f(8) = 187·(-2)

  (g•f)(8) = -374

−14 − 8x = −2(−3x + 7)

Answers

Answer:

-8x=6x+14-14

-8x-6x=0

-14x=0

X=0/14

X=0

?????

Answer:

X= 0 or Zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps To solve this problem... (8 steps)

1) Rearrange terms:

−14 − 8x = −2(−3x + 7)

−8x − 14 = −2(−3x + 7)

2) Distribute:

−8x − 14 = −2−(3x + 7)

−8x − 14 = 6x - 14

3) Add  14 to both sides of the equation:

−8x − 14 = 6x - 14

−8x − 14 + 14 = 6x - 14 + 14

4) Simplify (Add the numbers):

-8x = 6x

5) Subtract  6x from both sides of the equation:

-8x = 6x

-8x - 6x = 6x - 6x

6) Simplify (Combine like terms):

-14x = 0

7) Divide both sides of the equation by the same term:

-14x = 0

-14x/-14 = 0/-14

8) Simplify  (Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator):

X= 0/-14

During the rainstorm last week, Dwight and his sister wanted to see how much rain they could collect. In order to do this, they put out 12 three-and-a-half liter containers. Each of these containers was filled four times during the storm. How much rain was collected in all?

Answers

Answer: 168 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given , we are informed that they put out 12 three-and-a-half liter containers and that each of these containers was filled four times during the storm.

The amount of rain that was collected in all goes thus:

Since each container was filled 4 times, the amount filled by each container will be:

= 3 1/2 liters × 4

= 14 liters

Therefore, the total amount for the 12 containers will be:

= 12 × 14 liters

= 168 liters

Part A: Bill earned $12 walking his neighbors' dogs on Saturday. He earned some extra money on Sunday doing the same thing. Write an expression with a variable that shows the total amount of money Bill earned Saturday and Sunday.

Part B: Bill was able to walk 2 more than twice as many dogs as his friend Steve. Write an algebraic expression to represent the number of dogs Bill walked compared with Steve.

Answers

Answer:

Part A: 12 + x

Part B: 2s + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing you need to know is the difference between an expression and an equation. An expression does not have an equal sign, while an equation does.

To write an expression for Part A, first write the 12 (the amount he got on Saturday). Then, we need to write the addition sign (to find the total amount Bill earned). We don't know how much Bill earned on Sunday, so use any variable (I used x). Because we're writing an expression, do not write an equal sign.

To write an expression for Part B, first write the amount of dogs his friend Steve walked using a variable because we don't know that number (I used the variable s). Then, since Bill walked 2 more than twice as many dogs Steve walked, write the s multiplied by the 2 or just 2s. Now add the addition sign (to find the total amount Bill walked). Add a 2 because Bill walked 2 more dogs than twice as many Steve walked.

Hope it helps!

The expressions formed are 12+x and 2y+2.

What is an Expression?

An expression is a mathematical statement which consists of variables, constants and mathematical operators.

Let x be the amount of money Bill earned on Sunday.

He earned $12 on Saturday.

The total amount of money Bill earned is,

=> 12 + x

Let the number of dogs Bill's friend Steve walked is y.

Then the expression for the number of dogs Bill walked compared with Steve is,

=> 2y +2

The measurements of an cuboidal oil box are 30cm, 40cm and 50cm respectively. The cost of the tin sheet used in making the box is Rs. 10 per m². Find the cost of the tin required to make 20 such boxes ?​

Answers

Answer:

Cost of 20 boxes = RS. 188

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of box = 30 cm  = 0.3m

Width of box = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Height of box = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Cost per m² = Rs. 10

Find:

Cost of 20 boxes

computation:

TSA of box = 2[lb + bh + hl]

TSA of box = 2[(0.3)(0.4) + (0.4)(0.5) + (0.5)(0.3)]

TSA of box = 2[0.12 + 0.2 + 0.15]

TSA of box = 0.94 m²

Cost of 20 boxes = 0.94 x 20 x 10

Cost of 20 boxes = RS. 188

Answer:

[tex] 3\frac{1}{3} [/tex]

or

[tex] \frac{10}{3} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

These two triangles are similar. Since they share two angles, the right angle and angle EBD and ABC are congruent. By AA similarity rule, they are similar triangles.

Since they are similar we can set up a proportion of the triangles since similar triangles have proportional side length.

Side AC corresponds with DE

Side AB corresponds with BE

Side BC corresponds with BD

So we can use this proportion theorem, or angle bisector theorem

[tex] \frac{ac}{ab} = \frac{de}{be} [/tex]

Plug in the numbers.

[tex] \frac{3}{5} = \frac{2}{x} [/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]x = \frac{10}{3} [/tex]
