Theresa has two brothers, Paul and Steve, who are both the same height. Paul says he is 16 inches shorter than 1 and a half times Theresa’s height. Steve says he is 6 inches shorter than 1 and one third times Theresa’s height if they are both right how tall is Theresa?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Theresa is 60 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Theresa's height be t.

Let Paul's height be p.

Let Steve's height be s.

Paul says he is 16 inches shorter than 1 and a half times Theresa’s height. This means that:

p = 3/2 t - 16 = 3t/2 - 16 ________(1)

Steve says he is 6 inches shorter than 1 and one third times Theresa’s height. This means that:

s = 4/3 t - 6 = 4t/3 - 6 __________(2)

Since they are both right and they have the same height, we can equate (1) and (2):

3t/2 - 16 = 4t/3 - 6

Collect like terms:

3t/2 - 4t/3 = 16 - 6 = 10

t/6 = 10

=> t = 6 * 10 = 60 inches

Theresa is 60 inches tall.

Jessica rode 38 miles on a bus. The ride took 48 minutes. What was the average speed of the bus?

Answers

Answer: 47.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance / time

48 minutes = 0.8 hours

Speed = 38 / 0.8

= 47.5 miles per hour

ANSWER: 21.235 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance travelled: 38 miles, 61155.1 m(SI unit of speed or average speed is m/s so distance has to be in meters and time has to be in seconds)

Time taken:48 minutes, 48×60 seconds= 2880 seconds

Average speed= total distance by total time taken: 61155.1/ 2880= 21. 235 m/s

Solve the right triangle, ΔABC, for the missing side and angles to the nearest tenth given sides a = 13.2 and b = 17.7.

Answers

Answer:

Side c = 22.1

Angle A = 36.7°

Angle B = 53.2°

Angle C = 90.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC is a right angle

Where given sides

a = 13.2

b = 17.7

We can find c using Pythagoras Theorem

Pythagoras Theorem for a right angle triangle=

c² = a² + b²

c = √(a² + b²)

c = √(13.2² + 17.7²)

c = 22.08008

≈To the nearest tenth = 22.1

We can solve for Angles A, B, C using Cosine rule

Angle A

a² = b² + c² - 2bc × Cos A

Cos A = b² + c² - a²/2bc

A = Arc cos ( b² + c² - a²/2bc)

A = Arc cos ( 17.7² + 22.1² - 13.2²/2 × 17.7 × 22.1)

A = 36.67563°

≈ To the nearest tenth = 36.7°

Angle B

b² = a² + c² - 2ac × Cos B

Cos B = a² + c² - b²/2ac

B = Arc cos (a² + c² - b²/2ac)

B = Arc cos(13.2² + 22.1² - 17.7²/ 2 × 13.2 ×22.1)

B = 53.21647°

≈Approximately to the nearest tenth = 53.2°

Angle C

c² = a² + b² - 2ab × Cos C

Cos C = a² + b² - c²/2ab

C = Arc cos ( a² + b² - c²/2ab)

C = Arc cos ( 13.2² + 17.7² - 22.1²/2 × 13.2 × 17.7)

C = 90.1079°

≈ to the nearest tenth = 90.1°

A pack of 6 batteries of the same type costs £2.79. By caculating the price, per battery, determine if this is better value. You must show your working.

Answers

Answer:

£0.465. It is a better value.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a pack of 6 batteries costs £2.79, price of a battery can be calculated as shown;

6batteries = £2.79

1 battery = x

x = cost of a battery

6x = £2.79

x = £2.79/6

x = £0.465

Price per battery will be £0.465. This price is a better value since the price is lesser than the cost of the 6batteries (£2.79) in a pack.

Divide the sum of 3/8 and -5/12 by the reciprocal of 16/27 x(-15)/8

Answers

Answer:

First find the sum of 3/8 and -5/12

That is

3/8 - 5/12

First find the common denominator

The common denominator is 24

We get

3/8 - 5/12 = 3(3) - 5(2) / 24

= 9 - 10 / 24

= - 1 / 24

Next find the product of 16/27 x(-15)/8

That's

16/27 × -15/8

= -10/9

Next reverse -10/9

Which is -9/10

Next we divide it by = -1 /24

so we get

-1/24 ÷ -9/10

Change the sign to (×) and reverse the second fraction

We get

-1/24 × -10/9

= 5 / 108

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is as follows;

Madeeha’s father won £149.

He shared the £149 between his three children in the ratio 6:3:1. Madeeha was given the biggest share.

(a) Work out how much money Madeeha received.

(b) Madeeha saved 3/4 of her share.

Work out how much Madeeha saved.

Answer;

The total ratio is 6 + 3 + 1 = 10

Since madeeha was given the biggest share, that means she is given 6 out of 10 portions

So the amount she was given would be ;

6/10 * 149 = £89.4

Now we were told she saved 3/4

Amount saved would be 3/4 * 89.4 = £67.05

What type of triangle has these side lengths

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sides of a triangle are 2, [tex]\sqrt{12}[/tex] and [tex]\sqrt{19}[/tex].

Option (A).

If the triangle is a right triangle.

By Pythagoras theorem,

(Longest side)² = (Leg 1)² + (Leg 2)²

[tex](\sqrt{19})^2=2^2+(\sqrt{12})^2[/tex]

19 = 4 + 12

19 = 16

Not true.

Therefore, its not a right triangle.

Option (B).

If it is a triangle following conditions will be followed.

1). a + b > c

2). b + c > a

3). a + c > b

For the given sides of the triangle,

1). 2 + √12 > √19 [True]

2). 2 + √19 > √12 [True]

3). √12 + √19 > 2 [True]

Therefore, the given measures of the sides will form a triangle.

Option (C)

By Pythagorean inequality theorem,

If c² =  a² + b² → Right triangle

If c² > a² + b² → Obtuse triangle

If c² < a² + b² → Acute triangle

Since, (√19)² > 2² + (√12)² → 19 > 4 + 12

Therefore, the given triangle is an Obtuse triangle.

Option (D).

Not true. It's an obtuse triangle.

Answers

Answer:

Supongo que tenemos dos ángulos A y B

"la mitad de A mas la tercera parte de B es igual a 15°" (también supongo que son grados)

A/2 + B/3 = 15°

A/2 = 15° - (B/3)

A = 30° - 2*(B/3)

Ahora queremos calcular:

2*sin(3*A)/cos(2*B)

pero podemos reemplazar A por lo que tenemos arriba:

2*sin(3*(30° - 2*(B/3)))/cos(2*B)

2*sin(90° - 2*B)/cos(2*B)

y como sabemos,  

Sin( 90° - x) = Sin(90°)*cos(-x) + cos(90°)*sin(-x) = cos(-x) = cos(x)

entonces:

2*sin(90° - 2*B)/cos(2*B) = 2*cos(2*B)/cos(2*B) = 2*1 = 2.

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that to find the area of a triangle you have to multiply the base times the height and divide it by two or multiply it by 1/2.Looking the information given it say that theta is equal to 26 degrees  and the length of a or the hypotenuse is 25 and b which in this case is the base is 32. So the information gives us the base but now we need to find the height.

To find  H we need to apply trigonometry solve for h the height.

As we could see theta which is 26 degrees is opposite the height and we know the hypotenuse length. So using soh cah toh we have to know that the length of h is  going to be using the sin formula opposite over hypotenuse.

[tex]sin(26)=\frac{h}{25}[/tex]    solve for h by multiplying both sides by 25.

h= 25 sin(26)

h= 10.96   is being rounded to the nearest hundredth because that is essential

Now we know H is equal to 10.96  which is the Height so now we have all the information we need the height and the base.

Multiply 10.96 by 32 and divide it by 2.

10.96 * 32 =  350.72

350.72 /2 = 176.36  

The best answer is A  because that is the only best approximation to 175.35.
