Answer 2

Answer:

3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a triangle where opposite side = 12 , adjacent side = 5 and hypotenuse =  √(12^2 + 5^2) = 13   (because cot a = adjacent/ opposite side).

So  2sina - 3cosa / 4sina - 9cosa

= (2 * 12/13 - 3 * 5/13) / ( 4 * 12/13 - 9 * 5/13)

= (24/13 - 15/13) / (48/13 - 45/13)

=  9/13 / 3/13

= 9/13 * 13/3

= 3.

A circle has a circumference of 28.36 units what is the diameter of the circle

Answers

Answer:

The diameter of circle d is 9.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of Circle = 28.36

We need to find the diameter of circle.

The formula used to find the circumference of circle is:

C = 2πr

we know that radius is half of diameter

so r = d/2

Putting value of r in above equation

C = 2π(d/2)

C = πd

The value of π is 3.14. finding value of d

28.36 = 3.14 * d

=> d = 28.36 / 3.14

d = 9.03

So, the diameter of circle d is 9.03

Answer:

The diameter is approximately 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference is given by

C = pi *d

28.36 = pi *d

Let use 3.14 for pi

28.36 = 3.14 *d

Divide each side by 3.14

28.36 /3.14 = 3.14 d/3.14

9.031847134 = d

The diameter is approximately 9 units

Question #1

Look at the following graph of Carl’s travel time and distance:


What is Carl’s constant rate of speed (in miles per hour)?

How many miles will Carl have traveled after 2 hours?


Question #2

Look at the following equation:


–4x + y = 10

What is the slope of this line?

What is the value of y when x = 3?


Question #3

What is the rate (in dollars per ticket)?

How much money will the theater earn if it sells 150 tickets?


Answers

1. Carl's constant rate of speed is the slope of the straight line graph.

This straight line passes through: (0,0), (5,1), (10,2) etc

We can use the slope formula with any two points to find the slope of this line.

The slope formula is [tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex].

Let [tex](x_1,y_1)=(0,0)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)=(5,1)[/tex]

Then [tex]m=\frac{1-0}{5-0}[/tex], [tex]\implies m=\frac{1}{5}[/tex].

Carl's speed is [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] miles per minute.

But we must leave our answer in miles per hour

Hence Carl's speed is [tex]\frac{1}{5}\times 60=12[/tex]  miles per hour

After 2 hours, Carl will travel [tex]12\times 2=24[/tex] miles.

2. The given line has equation [tex]-4x+y=10[/tex]

We write this in slope-intercept form by solving for y.

[tex]\implies y=4x+10[/tex]

This is in the form [tex]y=mx+c[/tex], where [tex]m=4[/tex] is the slope.

When x=3,  [tex]y=4(3)+10[/tex]

[tex]\implies y=12+10=22[/tex]

When x=3, y=22

3. The given straight line graph that models the situation passes through:

(0,0) and (20,30).

The slope of this line is [tex]\frac{Rise}{Run}=\frac{300}{20}=15[/tex]

Therefore the rate is $ 15 per ticket.

If the theater sells 150 tickets, the earnings will be: [tex]150\times 15=2,250[/tex] dollars.

If my friend and i went to get ice cream, I have $30 and each ice cream is $5. What equation would help me solve this? I need an equation...

Answers

Hello there!

Your question asks to make an equation with the information that was given.

Answer: y = -5x + 30

In order to make an equation for your question. We would be making an equation with the formula: y = mx + b.

Formula: y = mx + b

m = change

x = amount of ice cream

b = starting value

We would need to gather the key information from the question.

Key information:

You have $30

Each ice cream cost $5

With the information above, we can make an equation for the question.

What we know is that you started with $30, so that means that 30 would be your b value (starting value).

Your equation should look like this:

y = mx + 30

Now, we know that each ice cream cost $5, but since we're paying for the ice cream, we would subtract that from our starting value. This means that our change would be -5, since we are taking away $5 each time we buy ice cream.

Your equation should look like this:

y = -5x + 30

The equation above would be the equation for your question.

We would do nothing to x but just leave it as is, since we don't know how many ice creams you're going to buy.

y = -5x + 30 should be your FINAL answer.

Please help

Answers

Answer: [tex]y=-3(x+1)^2+4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of the equation of  a parabola is:

 [tex]f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k[/tex]

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

To write [tex]y=-3x^2 - 6x +1[/tex] in vertex form, you need to complete the square:

1. Move the 1 to the other side of the equation:

[tex]y-1=-3x^2 - 6x[/tex]

2. Since the leading coefficient must be 1, you need to factor out -3:

[tex]y-1=-3(x^2 + 2x)[/tex]

3. Divide the coefficient of the x-term inside the parentheses by 2 and square it:

  [tex](\frac{2}{2})^2=1[/tex]

4. Now add 1 inside the parethenses and -3(1) to the other side of the equation (because you factored out -3):

[tex]y-1-3(1)=-3(x^2 + 2x+1)[/tex]

[tex]y-4=-3(x^2 + 2x+1)[/tex]

5. Convert the right side of the equation to a squared expression:

 [tex]y-4=-3(x+1)^2[/tex]

6. And finally, you must solve for "y":

[tex]y=-3(x+1)^2+4[/tex]

What is the equation of the line that passes through (4, 2) and is parallel to 3x – 2y = -6?

Answers

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3x - 2y = - 6 into this form

Subtract 3x from both sides

- 2y = - 3x - 6 ( divide all terms by - 2 )

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + c ← partial equation of parallel line

To find c substitute (4, 2) into the partial equation

2 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 6 = - 4

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 4 ← equation of parallel line

Answers

Area of a rectangle is Length times width.

The Width is given as X and the length is 2x+3

Now you have x * 2x+3 = 230

Multiplying x to 2x+3 = 2x^2 +3x

2x^2 +3x = 230

Subtract 230 from both sides:

2x^2+3x-230 = 0

Factor the polynomial:

(x-10) (2x+23) = 0

Solve for each x:

x = 10 and X = -11.5

Since a side of a rectangle can't be a negative number x = 10.

The width = x = 10 yards.

If 8x−4y=20 and 4x−8y=4, what is the value of x−y?
(A) 1 (B) 2 (C) 3 (D) 4 (E) 6

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system:

8x−4y=20

4x−8y=4

Reduce the first equation by dividing every term by -2:

-4x + 2y = -10

and then combine this result with the second equation:

4x−8y=4

-4x + 2y = -10

--------------------

      -6y = -6, and so y = 1.  

According to the first equation, if y = 1, then 4x - 8 = 4, or x = 3.

Then x = 3 and y = 1.

So, finally, x - y = 3 - 1 = 2

what is the radius of the sphere if surface area is 2826ft2? calculate in inches ​

Answers

Answer:179.95in

That is the awnser so how it helped

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

15.00 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the formula for the surface area of a sphere and a radius of r

A = 4πr²

In our case, we are given that A = 2826 ft² = 406944 in²

so,

406944 = 4πr²

r² = 406944 / (4π)      (use π=3.142)

r² = 406944 / (4π)  = 32383.57

r = √32383.57 = 179.95 in

which is defined using the undefined terms point and lines

Answers

You are getting the definition in define
Final answer:

Undefined terms such as points and lines are central to defining geometric concepts such as line segments and angles. They also play a crucial role in the Cartesian coordinate system, where points are defined in relation to lines (axes).

Explanation:

In Mathematics, particularly in Geometry, the undefined terms points and lines are used to define several other concepts. One such concept defined by these undefined terms is the 'Line Segment'. A Line Segment is simply part of a line that is bounded by two distinct endpoints, and contains every point on the line between its endpoints. Both points and lines have a defining role in constructing this definition. A line segment is an example of 'one-dimensional' structure, as it only extends in one direction, unlike a plane or volume that extend in two or three dimensions, respectively.

Another major concept that is defined using points and lines is the 'Angle'. An angle is formed when two lines meet at a point. The point is called the vertex of the angle, and the lines are the sides of the angle.

In the Cartesian coordinate system, the interaction of points and lines is at the core of defining and plotting positions. For example, a point in this system is represented by two coordinates (x, y) - where x represents its position along the x-axis (a horizontal line) and y represents its position along the y-axis (a vertical line).

The range of the function f(x) = -(x + 3)² + 7 is {y: y ∈ R, y ≤ 7}. So, option A is correct.

How to find the range of a function?Consider the given function as  y = f(x)Solve for x ( isolate x from the equation)The domain of the obtained function is the range of the function f(x).

Finding the range:

Given that,

f(x) = -(x + 3)² + 7

⇒ y = -(x + 3)² + 7

⇒ (x + 3)² = 7 - y

⇒ (x + 3) = √(7 - y)

⇒ x = (√(7-y)) - 3

Thus, all the real values less than or equal to 7 for y define the function. So, the domain for the obtained function is {y: y ∈ R, y ≤ 7}.

Suppose U={1,2} is the universal set and T={2}. Then what is the complement of T

Answers

Answer:

T'={1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition:

Given a set T, the complement of T is the set of all elements in the universal set U, but not in T.

We can write T^c  

You can also say complement of T in U

Complement of T( T')= U-T

where U={1,2} and T={2}

Now put the sets of U and T in the formula:

T'=U-T

T'={1,2}-{2}

T'{1}

Thus the Complement of T(T')={1}....

Final answer:

The complement of a set T in a universal set U is all the elements in U that are not in T. If U={1,2} and T={2}, the all the elements in U that are not in T corresponds to {1}. So, the complement of T is {1}.

Explanation:

In the field of Mathematics, specifically in set theory, the complement of a set T in a universal set U is the set of all elements in U that are not in T. When we say complement of T, we are referring to the set of all outcomes in the universal set U that are NOT in T.

In this case, the universal set U={1,2}, and the event T={2}. Therefore, the complement of the set T in relation to U would be the set of all elements in U that are not in T. Hence, since 2 is in T, the only number left in U that is not in T is 1. So, the complement of T is {1}.

She soon saw a team of four sable (black) horses, snorting smoke out of their nostrils, and tearing their way out of the earth with a splendid golden chariot whirling at their heels. They leaped out of the bottomless hole, chariot and all; and there they were, tossing their black manes and flourishing their black tails, close by the spot where Proserpina stood."In the chariot, a gloomy but handsome man rubbed his eyes as if he had never seen the sunshine. When he saw Proserpina, he beckoned for her to come to him."Do not be afraid," said he, with as cheerful a smile as he knew how to put on. "Come! Will you not like to ride a little way with me, in my beautiful chariot?"Proserpina's first thought was to call for her mother, but her voice was too quiet to be heard by anyone other than the richly dressed man in the chariot."Indeed, it is most likely that Ceres was then a thousand miles off, making the corn grow in some far distant country. Nor could it have helped her poor daughter for the stranger leaped to the ground, caught the child in his arms, and again mounted the chariot, shook the reins, and shouted to the four black horses to set off."As they rode on, the stranger did his best to comfort her."I promise not to do you any harm. What! you have been gathering flowers? Wait till we come to my palace, and I will give you a garden full of prettier flowers than those, all made of pearls, and diamonds, and rubies. Can you guess who I am? They call my name Pluto; and I am the king of diamonds and all other precious stones. The one thing which my palace needs is a merry little maid, to run upstairs and down, and cheer up the rooms with her smile. And this is what you must do for King Pluto."It is my opinion that even King Pluto had never been happy in his palace, and that this was the true reason why he had stolen away Proserpina, in order that he might have something to love, some sunshine in his dark world.They were now on a dark and gloomy road, beyond the reach of sunshine."We are just entering my dominions. Do you see that tall gateway before us? When we pass those gates, we are at home. And there lies my faithful mastiff at the threshold. Cerberus! Cerberus! Come hither, my good dog!""Will the dog bite me?" asked Proserpina, fearing the three-headed dog. "What an ugly creature he is!""O, never fear," answered her companion. "He never harms people, unless they try to enter my dominions without being sent for, or to get away when I wish to keep them here. Down, Cerberus! Now, my pretty Proserpina, we will drive on."Next they crossed over the River Lethe, a magical stream that makes people forget every care and sorrow. Pluto offered Proserpina a sip, which she refused."I had a thousand times rather be miserable with remembering my mother, than be happy in forgetting her. That dear, dear mother! I never, never will forget her. I will neither drink that nor anything else. Nor will I taste a morsel of food, even if you keep me forever in your palace."To tempt Proserpina to eat a morsel and thereby trap her into staying forever, King Pluto sent for his cook who came up with a menu of sweets, seasoned meats, and rich pastries.Read this line from the text:It was so wondrous that she almost felt the urge to run away from it.What does the word wondrous mean in this context?
