Answer:
38.2°
Step-by-step explanation:
The law of sines tells you ...
sin(x)/15 = sin(27°)/11
sin(x) = (15/11)sin(27°) . . . . . multiply by 15
x = arcsin((15/11)sin(27°)) ≈ arcsin(0.619078) ≈ 38.2488°
x ≈ 38.2°

In "law of sines" problems, you need to identify a side and opposite angle that you know both values of. Then, you need to identify whether you're looking for an angle or a side, and whether its opposite side or angle is known. If two angles are known, you can always figure the third from the sum of angles in a triangle.
Here, we have angle 27° opposite side 11. We are looking for an angle, and we know its opposite side. This lets us use the ratio formula directly. Since the angle is the unknown, it is useful to write the equation with sines on top and sides on the bottom.
The given angle is opposite the shorter of the given sides, so this triangle has two solutions. We assume that we want the solution that is an acute angle (141.8° is the other solution). That assumption is based on the drawing. Usually, you're cautioned not to take the drawings at face value.
Sorry I am a little late...
a = -2
b = -9
Here is how to solve the problem.
First thing I did was multiply the first equation by -2 so that we can eliminate the the b. After you multiply it by -2, your new equation is -16a + 8b = -40.
You leave the second equation alone and all you do is combine like terms. So -16a+5a is -11. And you eliminate the b. Then you're going to do -40+62 which is 22. So it's -11a=22 and then you have to solve for a. What I did was I multiplied the whole thing by minus to turn the a positive. So then it's 11a=-22. Pretty easy, the final step is to simplify. -22/11 is -2. ;D
So there you have your first answer.
a = -2
Now we're going to use the first answer to help us find b.
For the second equation, all you're going to do is plug in that a.
5 (-2)-8b=62
-10 - 8b = 62
Now we move the -10 to the other side...
-8b = 62 + 10
-8b = 72
Multiply the whole thing by negative once again to turn the b positive.
Now we have 8b = -72
The final step is to simplify. -72/11 = -9
b = -9
Hope this makes sense! Also I had the same question on my test and I got it right. :)
The x value of the ordered pair is 0
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We are dining the value that is $92 fewer or less than she did on the 7th. On the 7th, she had $48. Subtracting $92, we get $48 - $98 = -$44 = money she had on the 14th. Therefore, the answer is C.
Answer:
The answer is C. AC = 2.83, BD = 4.47
