We have an equation: 5/100 = 17.25/?

Cross multiply:
5*? = 17.25*100
⇒ ? = 17.25*100/5= 345

345 lb of sea water will be needed in order to get 17.25 lb of salt~

There is 5 percent of salt in seawater
to get 17.25 lb of salt you would need to find out what is 17.25 times 20
which = 345lbs

The question is Let h(x)=2x+5  and <span>g(x)=8-3x
what is the value of </span><span>h(g(1.5))
 the answer 

</span>h(g(1.5))= 2g(1.5)+5, and <span>g(1.5)=8-3(1.5)=3.5, so
</span>h(g(1.5))= 2<span>(3.5)+5= 12
</span>h(g(1.5))= 12

If value of cos330° is √3/2 then find tan165°.
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

-2+sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When cos(angle)=sqrt(3)/2

then sin(of that angle)= + or - 1/2 depending on the quadrant

Anyways 330 degrees is in the 4 quadrant.  Cosine is positive there while sine is negative.

so sin(330)=-1/2

Formula for tan(x/2)=(1-cos(x))/sin(x)

Therefore  tan(165)=tan(330/2)=(1-cos(330))/sin(330)=(1-sqrt(3)/2)/(-1/2)

Multiply top and bottom by 2 to get

tan(165)=(2-sqrt(3))/-1

tan(165)=-2+sqrt(3)

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Graph these two points: (0, 360), (30, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Amir drove for 30 minutes at a rate of 12 meters, that means that he started at an elevation of 360 feet. The easiest way to graph this, is to place one dot at (0, 360), and at (30, 0).
