2) a construction contractor used the equation 11.52=(1.44)8 to
calculate how much 8 boxes of nails would cost him. how
much would 2 boxes of nails cost him?

2.88

Explanation:

If you break down the equation we see that 8 is the number of boxes and 1.44 is the price of each box. So if you wanted to change the equation the formula would be: (1.44)x = cost so if you wanted to figure out how much 2 boxes would be, you just plug in 2 for x and you get (1.44)2 = 2.88

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

by the trigonometric ratio tangent, tangent equals opposite divided by adjacent.

therefore, tan(50) equals ac/3

multiply each side by 3 to get: ac=3tan(50)

the answer is b.

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
