Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The questions which involve calculating the angles and the sides of a triangle either require the sine rule or the cosine rule. In this question, the two sides that are given are adjacent to each other the given angle is the included angle. This means that the angle B is formed by the intersection of the lines a and c. Therefore, cosine rule will be used to calculate the length of b. The cosine rule is:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B).

The question specifies that c=71, B=123°, and a=65. Plugging in the values:

b^2 = 65^2 + 71^2 - 2(65)(71)*cos(123°).

Simplifying gives:

b^2 = 14293.0182932.

Taking square root on the both sides gives b = 119.6 (rounded to the one decimal place).

This means that the Option D is the correct choice!!!

adelina 88 [10]

$ 25 was the cost of each ​ticket before applying the service fee.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given that the cost of two tickets including the service fee = $59

So, the cost of one ticket including the service fee =  \frac{59}{2} = \$ 29.5

Service fee on each ticket = 18%

Let the cost of 1 ticket without including the service fee = x

So, according to the data given in the question,

                     x+18 \% \text { of } x=29.5

                     x+\frac{18}{100} \times x=29.5

                    x+0.18 x=29.5

                    1.18 x=29.5

                    x=\frac{29.5}{1.18}=25

Hence, cost of each ticket before applying the service fee = $25

torisob [31]

Answer:

The bike whose position has greater y-coordinate.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Dorrian plotted the co-ordinates of the bikes with second on the x-axis and distance traveled on the y-axis, the x-coordinates of the two bikes will be the same.

But, the bike which went faster will have the greater y-coordinate and which followed the earlier will have the smaller y-coordinate.

Hence, the bike which has greater y-coordinate will win the race.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both triangles are similar, we know this because they have 2 angles in common, they both have the same third angle.

To find the third angle, we use the angle sum. The sum of angles in a triangle will always equal 180 degrees. We are given a right angle which is 90 degrees and another angle, which is 53 degrees. Knowing this:

90 + 53 + x = 180 (I have chosen to call the third angle x)

when rearranging this we get

180 - 90 - 53 = x

now we solve

x = 37 degrees

Hope this helps,

Catherine has $54. She plans to spend more than $20 of the money for a painting canvas. The rest will go toward paints. Each tub
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

4. 54- 8.5x>20

Step-by-step explanation:

Catherine only has $54, so she cannot spend more than that.

The canvas will cost at least $20, but we don't know how much exactly.

The tubes cost $8.50 each.

So, she starts with a total budget of $54, out of which she will buy paints (8.5x) and she wants to have at least $20 left for canvas.

So, we transpose those facts into the inequity:

54 - 8.5x > 20
