What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle?

Enter your answer, in simplest radical form, in the box.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question I would use the sin rule.

The sin rule states that

[tex] \frac{a}{ \sin(a) } = \frac{b}{ \sin(b) } [/tex]

Therefore if you substitute in your numbers you get:

[tex] \frac{a}{ \sin(90) } = \frac{15}{ \sin(60) } [/tex]

If you rearrange that you get:

[tex]a = \frac{15}{ \sin(60) } \times \sin(90) [/tex]

Therefore a = 17.3 Inches (to 3 sf)

This can also be done with basic trigonometry where you would get

[tex] \sin(60) = \frac{15}{h} [/tex]

Rearranging to

[tex]h = \frac{15}{ \sin(60) } [/tex]

meaning the answer is 13.7 inches

Answer 2
Answer:     10*sqrt(3)

================================================

Work Shown:

h = unknown hypotenuse

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(60) = 15/h

h*sin(60) = 15

h*sqrt(3)/2 = 15

h*sqrt(3) = 2*15

h*sqrt(3) = 30

h = 30/sqrt(3)

h = (30*sqrt(3))/(sqrt(3)*sqrt(3)

h = 30*sqrt(3)/3

h = (30/3)*sqrt(3)

h = 10*sqrt(3)

Answers

Answer: The function will be ODD.

Hope this helps! :)

QuezoMartiinez

The function f(x) = -9x³ + 8x is odd.

Option A is the correct  answer.

What is a function?

function is a relationship between inputs where each input is related to exactly one output.

Example:

f(x) = 2x + 1

f(1) = 2 + 1 = 3

f(2) = 2 x 2 + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

The outputs of the functions are 3 and 5

The inputs of the function are 1 and 2.

We have,

A function f(x) is even if f(-x) = f(x).

A function is odd if f(-x) = -f(x).

Using the above definition.

f(x) = -9x³ + 8x

Put x = -x

f(-x) = -9 x (-x³) + 8 x (-x)

f(-x) = 9x³ - 8x

f(-x) = - ( -9x³ + 8x)

f(-x) = -f(x)

This means,

The function is odd.

Thus,

f(x) is odd.

The answer to your question

a) Values excluded = -2, 0

b) solutions = -2/3, 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

                        [tex]\frac{4x}{2x + 4} = \frac{x+ 2}{2x}[/tex]

a) x is restricted when the denominators equal zero, so let's get them.

                 2x + 4 = 0                           2x =  0

                 2x = - 4                                  x = 0 / 2

                 x = -4 / 2                               x = 0

                 x = -2

x must be different to -2, 0

b)                   [tex]\frac{4x}{2x + 4} = \frac{x+ 2}{2x}[/tex]

                      [tex]\frac{2x}{x + 2} = \frac{x + 2}{2x}[/tex]

                      4x² = (x + 2)²

                      4x² = x² + 4x + 4

                     4x² - x² - 4x - 4 = 0

                      3x² - 4x - 4 = 0

                      3x² - 6x + 2x - 4 = 0

                     3x(x - 2) + 2(x - 2) = 0

                     (x - 2)(3x + 2) = 0

You have to find x.

Answers

Answer:x = 9.01

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is a right angle triangle.

From the given right angle triangle the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle is 17

With 35 degrees as the reference angle,

x represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

The unlabelled side represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

θ = 35 degrees

To determine x, we would apply trigonometric ratio

Cos θ = adjacent side/hypotenuse side. Therefore,

Cos 35 = x/11

x = 11 Cos 35 = 11 × 0.8192

x = 9.01

Answer:

9.01

Step-by-step explanation:

The right angle triangle with a focused angle of degree is easily solved using Trig Ratio that can easily be recalled with this word :

SohCahToa.

What it means is:

If the Opposite side to the focused angle is given and also the hypotenuse is given, we use sine

Cosine if Adjacent and Hypotenuse is given.

Tangent if the opposite and Adjacent is given.

Now, to the question:

The Adjacent and the Hypotenuse is given. Therefore we'll use Cosine.

Therefore:

Cos 35 = x / 11

Cross multiplying:

11 cos 35 = x

11 * 0.8192 = x

Theresfore,

x = 9.01

Which angles are coterminal with an angle drawn in standard position measuring 282°?

Select all correct angle measures.


−438∘

−78∘

78°

572°

642°

Answers

Answer:

−438°, -78°, 642°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given angle:

282°

To find the co-terminal angles of the given angle.

Solution:

Co-terminal angles are all those angles having same initial sides as well as terminal sides.

To find the positive co-terminal of an angle between 360°-720° we will add the angle to 360°

So, we have: [tex]282\°+360\°=642\°[/tex]

To find the negative co-terminal of an angle between 0° to -360° we add it to -360°

So, we have:  [tex]282\°-360\°=-78\°[/tex]

To find the negative co-terminal of an angle between -360° to -720° we add it to -720°

So, we have:   [tex]282\°-720\°=-438\°[/tex]

Thus, the co-terminal angles for  282° are:

−438°, -78°, 642°

The correct coterminal angles with 282° are -78° option(2) and 642° option(5). The angles -438°, 78°, and 572° are not coterminal with 282°.

In mathematics, coterminal angles are angles that share the same initial and terminal sides. To find coterminal angles for a given angle, we add or subtract multiples of 360° (a full rotation). For the angle 282°:

1. Subtracting 360°:

⇒ 282° - 360° = -78°

2. Adding 360°:

⇒ 282° + 360° = 642°

Therefore, the angle measures -78° and 642° are coterminal with 282°. The other values, -438°, 78°, and 572°, are not coterminal with 282° as they do not share the same position after full rotations.

In summary, the correct coterminal angles with 282° are -78° and 642°.

[tex]y''=\frac{d}{dx}(\frac{-x}{y})\\\\y''=\frac{y(-1)-(-x)y'}{y^2}\\\\y''=\frac{-y+xy'}{y^2}[/tex]

Now, value of [tex]y''[/tex] at (4,3) is given as by plugging 4 for 'x', 3 for 'y' and [tex]\frac{-4}{3}[/tex] for [tex]y'[/tex]

[tex]y''_{(4,3)}=\frac{-3+(4)(-\frac{4}{3})}{3^2}\\\\y''_{(4,3)}=\frac{-3-\frac{16}{3}}{9}\\\\y''_{(4,3)}=\frac{-9-16}{3}\div 9\\\\y''_{(4,3)}=\frac{-25}{3}\div 9\\\\y''_{(4,3)}=\frac{-25}{3}\times \frac{1}{9}\\\\y''_{(4,3)}=-\frac{25}{27}[/tex]

A rectangular box 4 meters long, 3 meters wide and 2 meters tall. On the box is a cat, and the box is floating in water such that half the box is under water. The density of the box is 300 kg/m³. What is the mass of the cat?

Answers

Answer:

Mass of the cat  = 16800kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box = its length * its breath * its height- 4m × 3m × 2m = 24[tex]m^{3}[/tex]

The standard density of water is 1000 Kg/[tex]m^{3}[/tex]

By Archimedes principle, the mass of a body  floating body is equivalent to the mass of the volume liquid displaced

in this case we have

Mass of water displaced = Density of the water × Volume of the water  displaced =   1000 Kg/[tex]m^{3}[/tex] × 24[tex]m^{3}[/tex] = 24000kg

The mass of the box = Box density × Box volume = 24[tex]m^{3}[/tex] × 300kg/[tex]m^{3}[/tex] = 7200 kg Hence the mass of water displaced = mass of the foating box + mass of th cat

24000kg =  mass of cat +7200kg

mass of cat = 24000kg - 7200kg = 16800kg

The Hall family and the Nguyen family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate for the Hall family's sprinkler was 35L per hour. The water output rate for the Nguyen family's sprinkler was 15L per hour. The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 50 hours, resulting in a total water output of 1050L. How long was each sprinkler used?

Answers

Answer:

Nguyen family uses sprinkler for 35 hours while the Hall family uses sprinkler for 15 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h and n be the number of hours that the Hall and Nguyen family individually use their sprinkler for, respectively. Since they use for a combined total of 50 hours, h + n = 50, or h = 50 - n

Also their total water output is 1050 L, we can have the following equation

35h + 15n = 1050

Substitute h = 50 - n and we have

35(50 - n) + 15n = 1050

1750 - 35n + 15n = 1050

35n - 15n = 1750 - 1050

20n = 700

n = 35 hours

h = 50 - n = 50 - 35 = 15 hours

Given quadratic equation is [tex]-2x^2+x=0[/tex]

To solve the equation by completing the square :

[tex]-2x^2+x=0[/tex]

[tex]-2(x^2-\frac{x}{2})=0[/tex]

[tex]x^2-\frac{x}{2}=0[/tex]

Rewritting the above equation as below :

[tex]x^2-2(x)\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4^2}-\frac{1}{4^2}=0[/tex]

[tex](x-\frac{1}{4})^2-\frac{1}{4^2}=0[/tex]

[tex](x-\frac{1}{4})^2=\frac{1}{4^2}[/tex]

Taking square root on both sides we get

[tex]\sqrt{(x-\frac{1}{4})^2}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4^2}}[/tex]

[tex](x-\frac{1}{4})=\pm\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=\pm\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}[/tex] and [tex]x=-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{2}{4}[/tex] and [tex]x=0[/tex]

Therefore [tex]x=\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and x=0

[tex]x=0.5[/tex] and x=0

Therefore the solution to the given equation is [tex]{\{0.5,0}\}[/tex]

Option C) [tex]{\{0.5,0}\}[/tex] is correct

A 28ft ladder leans against a wall so that the base of the ladder is 5ft away from the base of the wall. How far up the wall does the ladder reach?
Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

the top of the ladder is 27.5ft above the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder makes an angle, θ with the ground thus forming a right angle triangle with the wall of the house.

The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

The ground distance from the base of the wall to the foot of the ladder represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

Therefore, to determine how high up is the top of the ladder on the wall, x, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

28² = x² + 5²

784 = x² + 25

x² = 784 - 25 = 759

x = √759 = 27.5ft

Final answer:

Using the Pythagorean theorem, the ladder reaches approximately 27.5 feet up the wall when the base is 5 feet from the wall.

Explanation:

The question involves finding the height up a wall that a 28ft ladder reaches when its base is 5ft from the wall. To solve this, we will use the Pythagorean theorem which relates the sides of a right-angled triangle. The ladder, wall, and ground form a right-angled triangle with the ladder as the hypotenuse and the wall and ground as the other two sides.

Let h be the height the ladder reaches up the wall. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have:


28² = h² + 5²

Solving for h:


28² - 5² = h²


784 - 25 = h²

759 = h²

h ≈ √759

h ≈ 27.5 (to the nearest tenth)

Therefore, the ladder reaches approximately 27.5 feet up the wall.

If y = e^5t is a solution to the differential equation d^2 y/dt^2 - 13 dy/dt + ky = 0, find the value of the constant k and the general form y = Ae^5t + Be^at of the solution to the above equation, (i.e. find a). (Use constants A, B, etc., for any constants in your solution formula.)

Answers

Answer:

k = -12/5

A = 125/12

B = -325/12

a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = e^5t

Dy/dt = 5e^5t

d2y/dt2 = 25e^5t

Inputting the values of dy/dt and d2y/dt2 into the equation above, we have:

25e^5t - 13e^5t + 5k(e^5t) = 0

12e^5t + 5k(e^5t) = 0

e^5t(12 + 5k) = 0

12 + 5k = 0

k = -12/5

The equation becomes,

d2y/dt2 - 13dy/dt -12/5y = o

So rearranging the equation,

-5/12d2y/dt2 + 65/12dy/dt + y = 0

y = 5/12(25e^5t) - 65/12(5e^5t)

y = 125/12e^5t - 325/12e^5t

Therefore,

k = -12/5

A = 125/12

B = -325/12

a = 5

The value of the constant k is 40. The general form of the solution is y = A[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] + B[tex]e^{8t}[/tex]

Let's start by recognizing that if y = [tex]e^{5t}[/tex] is a solution to the differential equation d²y/dt² - 13 dy/dt + ky = 0, we need to find the value of the constant k and the general form  y = A[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] + B[tex]e^{at}[/tex] of the solution. To do this, we need to determine k and a.

1. First, calculate the first and second derivatives of y = [tex]e^{5t}[/tex]

First derivative: dy/dt = 5[tex]e^{5t}[/tex]Second derivative: d²y/dt² = 25[tex]e^{5t}[/tex]

2. Substitute these into the differential equation:

d²y/dt² - 13 dy/dt + ky = 0

3. Substituting, we get:

25[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] - 13(5[tex]e^{5t}[/tex]) + k[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] = 0

25[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] - 65[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] + k[tex]e^{5t}[/tex]= 0

(25 - 65 + k)[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] = 0

(-40 + k)[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] = 0

4. For this to hold true, the following must be true:

k - 40 = 0

Thus:

k = 40

The general solution to the differential equation can be expressed as:

y = A[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] + B[tex]e^{at}[/tex]

1. To find a, substitute y = [tex]e^{at}[/tex] into the equation:

d²([tex]e^{at}[/tex])/dt² - 13 d([tex]e^{at}[/tex])/dt + 40[tex]e^{at}[/tex] = 0

We get:

a²[tex]e^{at}[/tex]- 13a[tex]e^{at}[/tex] + 40[tex]e^{at}[/tex]= 0

(a² - 13a + 40)[tex]e^{at}[/tex] = 0

2. The characteristic equation is:

a² - 13a + 40 = 0

3. Solve for a using the quadratic formula:

a = [13 ± √(13² - 4⋅40)] / 2

a = [13 ± √(169 - 160)] / 2

a = [13 ± √9] / 2

a = [13 ± 3] / 2

4. The roots are:

a = 8a = 5

Since y = [tex]e^{5t}[/tex] is a solution already, the other root a = 8 is the additional solution. Thus, the general solution to the differential equation is:

y = A[tex]e^{5t}[/tex] + B[tex]e^{8t}[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

P = 0.1654

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability:

P = nCr pʳ qⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1−p).

P = ₂₅C₁₈ (0.75)¹⁸ (0.25)²⁵⁻¹⁸

P = 480,700 (0.75)¹⁸ (0.25)⁷

P = 0.1654
