In △ABC, a=26, b=19, and c=17.2. Identify m∠C rounded to the nearest degree.

The figure shows triangle A B C. The length of segment A B is c units. The length of segment A C is b units. The length of segment B C is a units.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

41°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠C is opposite of side c.

Using law of cosines:

c² = a² + b² − 2ab cos C

17.2² = 26² + 19² − 2(26)(19) cos C

cos C = 0.750

C ≈ 41°

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 41 degrees

given that ABCD is a rhombus, what is the value of x?​

Answers

Answer:

D. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

We know:

1. Diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular.

2. Diagonals divide the rhombus on four congruent right triangles.

3. The sum of measures of acute angles in a right triangle is equal 90°.

Angles CAD and ACB are alternate angles. Therefore they are congruent:

m∠DAC = m∠ACB ⇒ m∠ACB = x°.

From 3. we have the equation:

(5x - 18) + x = 90

(5x + x) - 18 = 90              add 18 to both sides

6x = 108             divide both sides by 6

x = 18

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

In any Rhombus the diagonals bisect the angles. The diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other.

So,

5x-18+x+90=180 ( Angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees)

Simplifying like terms:

6x+72=180

Subtracting  72 both sides :

6x= 108

Dividing by 6 both sides:

x=18.

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

match each function with the corresponding function formula when h(x)=5-3x and g(x)=-3+5

Answers

Answer:

k(x) = (3g + 5h)(x) ⇒ (1)

k(x) = (5h - 3g)(x) ⇒ (3)

k(x) = (h - g)(x) ⇒ (2)

k(x) = (g + h)(x) ⇒ (4)

k(x) = (5g + 3h)(x) ⇒ (5)

k(x) = (3h - 5g)(x) ⇒ (6)

Step-by-step explanation:

* To solve this problem we will substitute h(x) and g(x) in k(x) in the

  right column to find the corresponding function formula in the

  left column

h(x) = 5 - 3x

g(x) = -3^x + 5

- Lets start with the right column

# k(x) = (3g + 5h)(x)

∵ g(x) = -3^x + 5

∵ 3g(x) = 3[-3^x + 5] = [3 × -3^x + 3 × 5]

- Lets simplify 3 × -3^x

 take the negative out -(3 × 3^x), and use the rule a^n × a^m = a^(n+m)

∴ -3(3 × 3^x) = -(3^x+1)

3g(x) = -3^x+1 + 15

∵ h(x) = 5 - 3x

5h(x) = 5[5 - 3x] = [5 × 5 - 5 × 3x] = 25 - 15x

- Now substitute 3g(x) and 5h(x) in k(x)

∵ k(x) = (3g + 5h)(x)

∴ k(x) = -3^x+1 + 15 + 25 - 15x ⇒ simplify

∴ k(x) = 40 - 3^x+1 - 15x

∴ k(x) = 40 - 3^x+1 - 15x ⇒ k(x) = (3g + 5h)(x)

* k(x) = (3g + 5h)(x) ⇒ (1)

# k(x) = (5h - 3g)(x)

∵ 5h(x) = 25 - 15x

∵ 3g(x) = -3^x+1 + 15

∵ k(x) = (5h - 3g)(x)

∴ k(x) = 25 - 15x - (-3^x+1 + 15) = 25 -15x + 3^x+1 - 15 ⇒ simplify

∴ k(x) = 10 + 3^x+1 - 15x

∴ k(x) = 10 + 3^x+1 - 15x ⇒ k(x) = (5h - 3g)(x)

* k(x) = (5h - 3g)(x) ⇒ (3)

# k(x) = (h - g)(x)

∵ h(x) = 5 - 3x

∵ g(x) = -3^x + 5

∵ k(x) = (h - g)(x)

∴ k(x) = 5 - 3x - (-3^x + 5) = 5 - 3x + 3^x - 5 ⇒ simplify

∴ k(x) = 3^x - 3x

∴ k(x)= 3^x - 3x ⇒ k(x) = (h - g)(x)

* k(x) = (h - g)(x) ⇒ (2)

# k(x) = (g + h)(x)

∵ h(x) = 5 - 3x

∵ g(x) = -3^x + 5

∵ k(x) = (g + h)(x)

∴ k(x) = -3^x + 5 + 5 - 3x ⇒ simplify

∴ k(x) = 10 - 3^x - 3x

∴ k(x)= 10 - 3^x - 3x ⇒ k(x) = (g + h)(x)

* k(x) = (g + h)(x) ⇒ (4)

# k(x) = (5g + 3h)(x)

∵ g(x) = -3^x + 5

∵ 5g(x) = 5[-3^x + 5] = [5 × -3^x + 5 × 5] = 5(-3^x) + 25

5g(x) = -5(3^x) + 25

∵ h(x) = 5 - 3x

3h(x) = 3[5 - 3x] = [3 × 5 - 3 × 3x] = 15 - 9x

- Now substitute 5g(x) and 3h(x) in k(x)

∵ k(x) = (5g + 3h)(x)

∴ k(x) = -5(3^x) + 25 + 15 - 9x ⇒ simplify

∴ k(x) = 40 - 5(3^x) - 9x

∴ k(x) = 40 - 5(3^x) - 9x ⇒ k(x) = (5g + 3h)(x)

* k(x) = (5g + 3h)(x) ⇒ (5)

# k(x) = (3h - 5g)(x)

∵ 3h(x) = 15 - 9x

∵ 5g(x) = -5(3^x) + 25

∵ k(x) = (3h - 5g)(x)

∴ k(x) = 15 - 9x - [-5(3^x) + 25] = 15 - 9x + 5(3^x) - 25 ⇒ simplify

∴ k(x) = 5(3^x) - 9x - 10

∴ k(x) = 5(3^x) - 9x - 10 ⇒ k(x) = (3h - 5g)(x)

* k(x) = (3h - 5g)(x) ⇒ (6)

What are the coordinates of the center of the ellipse shown below? (x+2)^2+(y-4)^2/9+36=1

Answers

Answer: -2,4

Step-by-step explanation:

Center = (-2,4) are the coordinates of the center of the ellipse .

What is the centre of ellipse?

The major and minor axes' midpoints meet at the center of an ellipse. At their intersection, the axes are perpendicular. The foci are always on the major axis, and the constant sum of the distances between the foci is greater than the sum of the distances from the foci to any point on the ellipse.

The equation of an ellipse is [tex]\frac{\left(x - h\right)^{2}}{a^{2}} + \frac{\left(y - k\right)^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1[/tex]

where (h,k) is the center, b and a are the lengths of the semi-major and the semi-minor axes.

Our ellipse in this form is [tex]\frac{\left(x - \left(-2\right)\right)^{2}}{9} + \frac{\left(y - 4\right)^{2}}{36} = 1[/tex]

Thus, h = -2, k = 4

Center = (-2,4).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find each answer, we just have to complete the table.

We know that there are 54 cats in total, and 26 belong to 8th grade. So, 7th grade would be 54-26=28.

Also, we know that there are 48 dogs in total, if 35 belong to 8th grade, then 7th grade would be 48-35=13.

Therefore, 7th grade students have 28 cats, 13 dogs, and 41 pets in total. Therefore, the right choice is the second one.

Use formula:

Step-by-step explanation:

They are both linear inequalities, so for both, you have to solve for x first. For the first one, since x is basically multiplied to 2 (2x), you have to divide both sides to get x by itself, and you get x>25. The graph has to have an opened circle, and the arrow should go to the right because all the numbers greater than 25 can be x. For the second one, you have to subtract 6 to both sides to get x by itself which then leaves you with ×<26.

Pentagon PQRST and its reflection, pentagon P'Q'R'S'T', are shown in the coordinate plane below:

What is the line of reflection between pentagons PQRST and P'Q'R'S'T'?

Answers

The line of reflection between the two pentagons is the y-axis.

We can see this because all of the points in pentagon P'Q'R'S'T' have the same x-coordinate as their corresponding points in pentagon PQRST, but their y-coordinates are negated. For example, point P has coordinates (-4, 6), and its reflected image P' has coordinates (-4, -6).

The y-axis is the only line that passes through all of the midpoints of the segments connecting corresponding points in the two pentagons. Since reflection preserves distance, the line of reflection must be the perpendicular bisector of any segment connecting a point in one pentagon to its reflected image in the other pentagon.

What is tan 11(3.14)/6

Answer:

A) -sqrt(3)/3

Step-by-step explanation:

If you know your unit circle (attached), 11pi/6 has the value of (sqrt(3)/2,-1/2), where the coords are (cosine, sine).

Tangent is sine/cosine:

(-1/2)/(sqrt(3)/2)

We can convert this to multiplication by miltiplying the reciprocal of sqrt(3)/2:

(-1/2)*(2/sqrt(3))

Multiplied out to:

-2/(2sqrt(3))

We have to rationalize this by multiplying the numerator and denominator by sqrt(3):

-2(sqrt(3))/2sqrt(3)(sqrt(3)

two of the same square roots multiplied together equals the number without the sqrt:

-2(sqrt(3))/2*3

we can factor out 2 from the numerator and denominator:

It costs $14.50 to rent a canoe and $6 to use the canoe for an hour. You have $32.50. Write an equation that represents the number h of hours you can rent the canoe.

Answers

Answer:

The maximum number of hours that can rent the canoe is 2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

h ----> the number of hours you can rent the canoe

we know that

The inequality that represent this situation is

[tex]14.5+6h\leq 32[/tex]

Solve for h

Subtract 14.5 both sides

[tex]6h\leq 32-14.5[/tex]

[tex]6h\leq 17.5[/tex]

Divide by 6 both sides

[tex]h\leq 17.5/6[/tex]

[tex]h\leq 2.9\ hours[/tex]

The maximum number of hours that can rent the canoe is 2 hours

Final answer:

The equation that represents the number of hours you can rent the canoe is h = ($32.50-$14.50)/$6.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is Mathematics and it appears suitable for a Middle School level. Given the scenario you presented, we will need to create a linear equation to determine the number of hours of canoe rental. In this case, the $14.50 is a fixed cost, like the $31.50 in one of your examples. Additionally, the $6 per hour to use the canoe is a variable cost. To create an equation that represents the amount of hours you can rent the canoe, we first deduct the fixed cost from your total budget. This gives you $32.50 - $14.50 = $18 left to work with. Each hour of canoe use costs $6, so we divide the remaining amount by 6 to find how many hours (h) you can rent the canoe. This gives us the equation, h = ($32.50-$14.50)/$6.

Cate purchases $1600 worth of stock and her broker estimates it will increase in value by 4.2% each year. After about how many years will the value of Cate’s stock be about $2000?

Answers

Answer:

Since the money appreciates 4.2% each year, then:

2000=1600x(1.042)^n, where n is the number of years

Then:

1.25=1.042^n

ln 1.25=ln 1.042^n=n ln 1.042

n=5.424 years

Final answer:

Cate's $1600 stock investment, growing at 4.2% annually, will take approximately 5.21 years to reach a value of about $2000.

Explanation:

Given that Cate purchases $1600 worth of stock with an estimated increase in value by 4.2% each year, we are looking to find out after how many years the value will be about $2000. To determine this, we can use the formula for exponential growth, P = P_0 (1 + r)^t, where P is the future value, P_0 is the initial value, r is the rate of increase, and t is the time in years.

Cate's initial investment is $1600 (P_0), and we aim for a future value of $2000 (P). The annual growth rate r is 4.2%, or 0.042 when expressed as a decimal. Plugging these values into the formula and solving for t gives us:

2000 = 1600 (1 + 0.042)^t1.25 = (1.042)^tt = ln(1.25) / ln(1.042)t ≈ 5.21

So, it will take approximately 5.21 years for Cate's investment to reach a value of about $2000, assuming a steady 4.2% growth rate.
