Cosine = x-component/hypotenuse
cosine = 5 / √(12^2 + 5^2) = 5/13 = 0.385
Let us start with something we know is true.
5 > 3
That reads as 5 is greater than 3. Anyone will tell you that that is a true statement.
But what happens when you multiply this result by - 10
5 * -10 > 3 * - 10
- 50 > - 30 is that true? If you are not sure, think it terms of money. Which would you rather be
owing 50 dollars to some or owing 30 dollars to someone? Of course if you are careful with money you would likely say neither. But this is math so you have to choose.
You likely would have to say you would want to owe 30 dollars. That makes - 30 larger than - 50. So a true statement has now become a false one. Check with me if you don't understand. I'd like to know if you accept my explanation.
The chain made 145 times more money than the single store.
To find this answer first find the amount of money both made and divide the chain amount by the super store amount to get the final answer.
Hope this helps. :D
