C because you have to divide by m or the members because you are splitting it up or dividing it between the members. And you subtract 95 dollars becuase it was a cost or bill

5. When looking at a map, a student realizes that Birmingham is nearly due west of Atlanta, and Nashville is nearly due north of

leonid [27]

Answer: 250 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can think in a triangle rectangle:

The distance from Birmingham to Atlanta is roughly 150 mi, and this is one of the cathetus.

And the distance from Birmingham to Nashville is roughly 200 mi, this is the other cathetus of the triangle.

Now, the distance from Atlanta to Nashville will be the hypotenuse of this triangle rectangle.

Now we can apply the Pythagorean's theorem:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

Where A and B are the cathetus, and H is the hypotenuse:

Then:

H = √(A^2 + B^2)

H = √(150^2 + 200^2) mi = √(62,500) mi = 250 mi

Then the estimated distance from Atlanta to Nashville is 250 mi

Given right triangle XYZ, what is the value of tan(60°)?

Svetlanka [38]

we know that

Step $1$

in the right triangle XYZ

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

Find the value of ZY

$XY^{2}=XZ^{2} +ZY^{2} \\ ZY^{2}=XY^{2}-XZ^{2}\\ ZY^{2}=42^{2}-21^{2}\\ ZY^{2}=1,323\\ ZY=\sqrt{1,323}\ units$

$ZY=21\sqrt{3}\ units$

Step $2$

in the right triangle XYZ

Find tan $60$ °

we know that

$tan\ 60=\frac{opposite\ side\ angle\ 60}{adjacent\ side\ angle\ 60}$

in this problem

opposite side angle $60$ is ZY

adjacent side angle $60$ is XZ

so

$tan\ 60=\frac{ZY}{XZ} \\ \\ tan\ 60=\frac{21\sqrt{3}}{21} \\ \\ tan\ 60=\sqrt{3}$

therefore

the answer is

$\sqrt{3}$

Jerry makes $40,000 a year working at a nearby factory. He gets two weeks paid vacation per year, plus five other paid holidays.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Vacation pays are not included in salaries. Therefore, Jerry's calculation is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is :

Jerry makes $40,000 a year working at a nearby factory.

He gets two weeks paid vacation per year, plus five other paid holidays.

So total paid holidays become = $14+5=19$ days

Subtracting 19 from 365 days and assuming that Jerry works for 365 days a year.

We get = $365-19=346$ days

So, his per day salary will be = $\frac{40000}{346}= 115.60$

Vacation pays are not included in salaries. Therefore, Jerry's calculation is wrong.
