Answer:

The measurement of angle HBC is m∠HBC=61°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem states that

The line BH divides angle EBC into two equal parts,

consult the attached diagram for clarity

thus

m∠EBC=m∠EBH+m∠HBC

where m∠EBH=m∠HBC

therefore

m∠EBC=2(m∠EBH)

Insert the provided values to solve for a

31a-2=2(4a+45)\\31a-2=8a+90\\31a-8a=92\\23a=92\\a=4

Determine the value of angle EBH

m∠EBH=(4(4)+45)=61°

Keep in mind that

m∠EBH=m∠HBC

therefore

The measurement of angle HBC is m∠HBC=61°

Sheri’s cab fare was $32, with a 20% gratuity and no taxes. Sheri wrote a check to the cab driver for $40.
zzz [12365]

Indeed, a fare of $40 is a fair charge for the cab ride.

Explanation

Sheri's cab fare totaled $32, with a gratuity rate of 20%.

The gratuity amount is: \$32* 20\% = \$32*0.20= \$6.40

Thus, the total cab fare including gratuity is: \$32+\$6.40 = \$38.40

Since Sheri issued a $40 check to the cab driver, it indicates she provided ($40 - $38.40) or an extra $1.60 to the cab driver. Consequently, the $40 payment is reasonable for the cab fare.

Two birds sit at the top of two different trees. The distance between the first bird and a birdwatcher on the ground is 32 feet.
Svet_ta [12734]

Response:

Step-by-step breakdown:

When you sketch that diagram (great description, by the way!), what you essentially have is a right triangle with a base of 32 and a hypotenuse of 45. The right angle resides at one of the base's ends, and x represents the vertex angle. We must find this vertex angle first to determine the angle of depression from the second bird to the watcher. The side measuring 32 is opposite to angle x, with 45 being the hypotenuse; hence, the trigonometric relation we need is sine:

sin(x)=\frac{32}{45} and

sin(x) =.711111111

Go to your calculator, press the 2nd key followed by the sin key, and your display will show:

sin^{-1}(

then, enter in your decimal.711111111 and hit equals. You should arrive at an angle of 45.325. That angle is x. However, that's not the angle of depression. The angle of depression is the complementary angle to x.

Angle of depression = 90 - angle x and

Angle of depression = 90 - 45.325, resulting in

Angle of depression = 44.67 or 44.7 degrees.

If t represent the number of tickets purchased for a baseball game, which scenario is modeled by the equation, 32.50t + 5 = 28.7
tester [12383]

Answer: By substituting t with 4, we find that 32.5*4 + 5 yields 135 and 28.75 * 4 + 20 results in the same value of 135, confirming the equation is valid.

or

By using 4 as the value for t in the equation, a true statement emerges, indicating that the Burns family will incur a cost of $135 for 4 tickets and parking regardless of whether the choice is lower-level or middle-level seating.
