Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is:

The area of the triangle is:

[tex]Area=13.2cm^{2}[/tex]

We can solve the problem using the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) method, to calculate the area of a triangle given two sides and a single angle.

The SAS method to calculate the area of a triangle is given by the following the equation:

[tex]Area=\frac{abSinC}{2}[/tex]

Where,

a and b are the known sides.

C is the known angle

Now, we are given a triangle with the following dimension:

[tex]Side_{a}=7cm\\Side_{b}=8cm\\\alpha=28\°[/tex]

Then, using the information and solving we have:

[tex]Area=\frac{7cm*8cm*Sin(28\°)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Area=\frac{56cm^{2}*Sin(28\°)}{2}\\\\Area=\frac{56cm^{2}*0.47}{2}\\\\Area=\frac{26.32cm^{2}}{2}\\\\Area=13.16cm^{2}[/tex]

Hence, the area of the triangle, rounded to the nearest tenth is:

[tex]Area=13.2cm^{2}[/tex]

ANSWER

The value of x is 47°

EXPLANATION

PQ is a tangent to the circle at Q.

This tangent meets the diameter at 90°.

The sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°

This implies that:

[tex]90 \degree + x + 43 \degree = 180 \degree[/tex]

[tex]133 \degree + x = 180 \degree[/tex]

Group similar terms to obtain;

[tex] x = 180 \degree - 133 \degree[/tex]

Simplify similar terms to get;

[tex]x = 47\degree[/tex]

Answer:

The value of x = 47°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we can see that a circle with center O.

PQ is a tangent to the circle fro point P.

m<P = 43°

Therefore <Q = 90°

To find the value of x

From the given triangle we can write,

x + m<Q + m<P = 180

x = 180 - (m<Q + m<P)

 = 180 - (90 + 43)

 = 180 - 133 = 47°

Therefore the value of x = 47°

Answer:

Hence final answer is [tex](1,3)[/tex].

correct choice is D because both ends are open circles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequality is [tex]\frac{x-1}{x-3}<0[/tex]

Setting both numerator and denominator =0 gives:

x-1=0,  x-3=0

or x=1, x=3

Using these critical points, we can divide number line into three sets:

[tex](-\infty,1)[/tex], [tex](1,3)[/tex] and [tex](3,\infty)[/tex]

We pick one number from each interval and plug into original inequality to see if that number satisfies the inequality or not.

Test for [tex](-\infty,1)[/tex].

Clearly x=0 belongs to [tex](-\infty,1)[/tex] interval then plug x=1 into [tex]\frac{x-1}{x-3}<0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{0-1}{0-3}<0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-1}{-3}<0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{3}<0[/tex]

Which is False.

Hence [tex](-\infty,1)[/tex] desn't belongs to the answer.

Similarly testing other intervals, we get that only [tex](1,3)[/tex] satisfies the original inequality.

Hence final answer is [tex](1,3)[/tex].

correct choice is D because both ends are open circles.

Answer:

21503 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Square 1 = 69 x 69 = 4761

Area of Triangle = 69 x 92 ÷ 2 = 3174

Area of Square 2 = 92 x 92 = 8464

Answer:

x = -48, y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Both equations have a 5y term, we can work with that.

Let's first convert them into 5y = ... form:

2x + 5y = 29 => 5y = 29 - 2x

3x + 5y = -19 => 5y = -3x - 19

Now we can equate the right-hand sides:

29 - 2x = -3x - 19

And simplify:

29 + 19 = -3x + 2x => x = -48

Let's put this x value in the first:

2*(-48) + 5y = 29 =>

-96 - 29 = -5y =>

-5y = -125 =>

y = 25

5 1/4 in decimal form is 5.25 because 25 is 1/4 of 100.

The mixed fraction 5 1/4 is equivalent to 5.25 in decimal form. The fraction 1/4 is converted to decimal by dividing 1 by 4 to get 0.25 and then added to the whole number 5.

To convert the mixed fraction 5 1/4 to decimal form, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator for the fractional part and then add that result to the whole number part. In this case, 1 divided by 4 equals 0.25. Adding this result to the whole number 5 gives you 5.25, which is 5 1/4 in decimal form.

Answer:

3π/13

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the reference angle of a given angle, first of all, its quadrant is determined

In order to determine the quadrant,

10π/13=10(180)/13

=138.46

As the given angle belongs to 2nd quadrant, it will be subtracted from 180 degrees also denoted by pi.

So,

Reference angle for 10π/13= π-10π/13

=(13π-10π)/13

=3π/13

So the reference angle for 10π/13 is 3π/13 ..

-2C= 550 - 610= -30

C= 15

T= 122-15 = 107

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:  50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of cars and y be the number of trucks .

By considering the given information, we get

[tex]x+y=122-----------------(1)\\\\3x+5y=510-------------------(2)[/tex]

Multiply (1) by 3 , we get

[tex]3x+3y=366--------------(3)[/tex]

Eliminate equation (3) from (2), we get

[tex]2y=144\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=72[/tex]

Put y= 72 in equation (1), we get

[tex]x+72=122\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=122-72=50[/tex]

Hence, the number of cars did the club = 50

Answer: 5.18 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The pressure exerted on the walls of a container by a gas enclosed within it is directly proportional to  the temperature of the gas.

Let 'p' denote the pressure exerted on the walls and 't' denotes  temperature of the gas.

Then the equation is given by :-

[tex]p=ct[/tex], where c is the proportionality constant.

Also, the pressure is 6 pounds per square inch when the temperature is 440° F.

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 6=440c\\\\\Rightarrow\ c=\dfrac{6}{440}=\dfrac{3}{220}[/tex]

Then, the final equation to calculate pressure becomes :-

[tex]p=\dfrac{3}{220}t[/tex]

Now, the pressure exerted when the temperature of the gas is 380°F is given by :-

[tex]p=\dfrac{3}{220}\times380=5.181818\approx5.18\text{ pounds}[/tex]

Answer:

Donuts cost $2.00 and Cookies cost $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

D = cost of a donut

C = cost of a cookie

4D + 10C = $23.00

8D + 6C = $25.00

Eliminate a variable when subtracting the two equations.  Change both values with C to 60 in order to eliminate the C variable and solve for D.

80D + 60C = $250.00 subtracted from 24D + 60C = $138

56D = $112.00  (Divide by 56 to single out the variable)

56D/56 = $112.00/56

D = $2.00

Use the D value to solve for C.

4(2) + 10C = $23.00

8 + 10C = $23.00

8 - 8 + 10C = $23.00 - 8

10C = $15.00

10C/10 = $15/10

C = $1.50

Check:

Bentley:  

4D + 10C = $23

4(2) + 10(1.50) = $23

8 + 15 = $23

23 = 23

Skylar:

8D + 6C = $25

8(2) + 6(1.50) = $25

16 + 9 = $25

25 = 25

Answer:

Each donut costs $2 and each cookie costs $1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let´s name the variables as the following:

x = price of one donut

y = price of one cookie

2. Write in an equation form which Bentley bought:

[tex]4x+10y=23[/tex] (Eq.1)

3. Write in an equation form which Skylar bought:

[tex]8x+6y=25[/tex] (Eq.2)

4. Solve for x in Eq.1:

[tex]4x+10y=23[/tex]

[tex]4x=23-10y[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{23-10y}{4}[/tex] (Eq.3)

5. Replace Eq.3 in Eq.2 and solve for y:

[tex]8*(\frac{23-10y}{4})+6y=25[/tex]

[tex]\frac{184-80y}{4}+6y=25[/tex]

[tex]\frac{184-80y+24y}{4}=25[/tex]

[tex]184-80y+24y=100[/tex]

[tex]-80y+24y=100-184[/tex]

[tex]-56y=-84[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{84}{56}[/tex]

[tex]y=1.5[/tex]

6. Replacing the value of y in Eq.3:

[tex]x=\frac{23-10*(1.5)}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{23-10*(1.5)}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{23-15}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{8}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=2[/tex]

Therefore each donut costs $2 and each cookie costs $1.5

Answer:

The top isn't closed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom is enclosed, creating more surface area, but the top is opened.

Answer:

The surface area of a cylinder is given by :

SA=[tex]2 \pi rh+2\pi r^{2}[/tex]

When the base is same but the height is doubled. Doubling the height replaces h with 2h:

New formula becomes:

SA=[tex]2 \pi r(2h)+2\pi r^{2}[/tex]

SA = [tex]4\pi rh+2\pi r^{2}[/tex]

We can see that only the height is doubled not the radius. The formula changes a little bit.

We can take an example-

Lets say the height of cylinder is 10 cm and radius is 4 cm

So, SA in 1st case :

SA=[tex]2\times3.14\times4\times10+ 2\times3.14\times (4)^{2}[/tex]

=[tex]251.2+100.48=351.68[/tex] cm square

SA in 2nd case:

[tex]4\times3.14\times4\times10+ 2\times3.14\times(4)^{2}[/tex]

= [tex]502.4+100.48=602.88[/tex] cm square

We can see that area of lateral surface doubles up in case 2 but the base area remains the same.

(B).(x=5 or -5) is the homogeneous mixture

The first equation has two distinct rational solutions, the expression 2x - 1 can be one of the factors to solve the second equation, the solutions to the third equation are x = -2/5 and x = 0, and the solutions to the fourth equation are x = -1 and x = -5.

1. To find the solutions to the equation x^2 - 1 = 24, we can start by isolating the squared term:

x^2 = 24 + 1

x^2 = 25

Next, we take the square root of both sides to find the values of x:

x = ±√25

Therefore, there are two distinct rational solutions to the equation.

2. In order to solve the quadratic equation 2x^2 - 7x + 3 = 0, Marcus can use the quadratic formula x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / (2a). One of the factors he can write is 2x - 1.

3. The solutions to the equation 5x^2 = -2x are found by getting all the terms to one side and setting the equation equal to zero:

5x^2 + 2x = 0

Next, we factor out the greatest common factor:

x(5x + 2) = 0

Setting each term equal to zero, we get two values for x:

x = 0 or x = -2/5

Therefore, the statement that the solutions are x = -2/5 and x = 0 is true.

4. To find the solutions to the equation (x + 3)^2 - 4 = 0, we isolate the squared quantity:

(x + 3)^2 = 4

Next, we take the square root of both sides, considering both the positive and negative square roots:

x + 3 = ±√4

x + 3 = ±2

Solving for x, we get two solutions:

x = -3 - 2 = -5

x = -3 + 2 = -1

Therefore, the statement that the solutions are x = -1 and x = -5 is true.

Answer:

[tex]5(a^2b-a^2c-db+dc)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is [tex]5a^2b- 5a^2c -5db +5dc[/tex].

Now we need to show the first step of factoring.

We know that first step of factoring in any problem is to find the GCF that is find the greatest common factor. We see that 5 is the only largest number that can divide each term so 5 is the GCF.

Now we write 5 outside parenthesis and divide given terms by 5 to find the terms that goes inside parenthesis.

Hence first step of factoring is given by :

[tex]5a^2b- 5a^2c -5db +5dc[/tex]

[tex]=5(a^2b-a^2c-db+dc)[/tex]

The first step when factoring [tex]\(5a^2b - 5a^2c - 5db + 5dc\)[/tex] by grouping is to group the terms and then factor out the common terms from each group

Let's factor the expression [tex]\(5a^2b - 5a^2c - 5db + 5dc\)[/tex] by grouping.

First, let's group the terms:

[tex]\( (5a^2b - 5a^2c) + (-5db + 5dc) \)[/tex]

Now, let's factor out the common terms from each group:

[tex]\( 5a^2(b - c) + 5d(-b + c) \)[/tex]

Now, we can factor out the common factor of 5 from both terms:

[tex]\( 5(a^2(b - c) + d(-b + c)) \)[/tex]

So, the factored expression is [tex]\(5(a^2(b - c) + d(-b + c))\).[/tex]

In the given expression, we have four terms[tex]: \(5a^2b\), \(-5a^2c\), \(-5db\), and \(5dc\).[/tex]

The first step in factoring by grouping is to group the terms in pairs. Here, we pair [tex]\(5a^2b\)[/tex] with [tex]\(-5a^2c\)[/tex] and [tex]\(-5db\)[/tex] with [tex]\(5dc\).[/tex]

Next, we factor out the common terms from each group. From the first group, we factor out [tex]\(5a^2\)[/tex], and from the second group, we factor out [tex]\(5d\).[/tex] This leaves us with [tex]\(b - c\)[/tex] in the first group and [tex]\(-b + c\)[/tex] in the second group.

Finally, we factor out the common factor of 5 from both terms to get the final factored expression [tex]\(5(a^2(b - c) + d(-b + c))\).[/tex]

So, the first step when factoring [tex]\(5a^2b - 5a^2c - 5db + 5dc\)[/tex] by grouping is to group the terms and then factor out the common terms from each group.

QA) Which solid figures can the staircase be broken into?

A) The staircase can be broken into 3 rectangular prisms.

QB) What are the dimensions of each solid figure?

A) We are given the height (2.5 ft) and the length (3 ft) of the entire staircase. To find the height and length of each step, just divide by 3:

2.5 / 3 = 5/6 ft high

3 / 3 = 1 ft long

Looking at the image given, we can see that the staircase is 6 ft wide.

Bottom prism: 3 ft long, 6 ft wide, and 5/6 ft high.

Middle prism: 2 ft long, 6 ft wide, and 5/6 ft high.

Top prism: 1 ft long, 6 ft wide, and 5/6 ft high.

QC) How much concrete will be needed to form the staircase?

A) To answer this question, we have to find the volume of each rectangular prism. The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is

V = lwh; where l = length, w = width, and h = height.

We need to apply this formula to each prism. I'll go from the bottom up.

(1.) V = lwh; l = 3, w = 6, h = 5/6

V = (3)(6)(5/6)

V = 15 ft²

(2.) V = lwh; l = 2, w = 6, h = 5/6

V = (2)(6)(5/6)

V = 10 ft²

(3.) V = lwh; l = 1, w = 6, h = 5/6

V = (1)(6)(5/6)

V = 5 ft²

To find the amount of concrete needed to form the staircase, just add the volumes of the three rectangular prisms:

15 + 10 + 5 = 30 ft²

The contractor will need enough concrete to cover 30 ft² to form the staircase.

Hope this helps!

Final answer:

The staircase can be broken into rectangular prisms, each representing a step. The volume of each step is calculated using the given dimensions, which are then summed to find the total concrete needed.

Explanation:

To determine the amount of concrete needed to form a staircase, we need to calculate the volume of concrete required for each step and then sum them up. Since each step is of the same size, we can break down the staircase into a set of rectangular prisms, where each prism represents a step.

Dimensions of each solid figure (step): Given a stage height of 400 mm and 3 steps, the height of each step would be 400 mm / 3, which is around 133.33 mm or 13.33 cm. The length of the horizontal part of each step is 800 mm or 80 cm. Assuming a step width of 1,200 mm or 120 cm (since the steps must be wide enough for two people), we obtain the dimensions for each step.

To calculate the volume of each step, we use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism: Volume = Length × Width × Height. Therefore, we have Volume = 80 cm × 120 cm × 13.33 cm for each step. To find the total volume for the staircase, we multiply the volume of one step by the number of steps (3 in this case).

Calculating the total concrete required: After finding the volume of one step, we multiply it by 3 (since there are 3 steps) to find the total concrete needed.

We're given that

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}=6\dfrac{\rm in}{\rm s}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}=-3\dfrac{\rm in}{\rm s}[/tex]

so that at the point when [tex]r=5\,\rm in[/tex] and [tex]h=11\,\rm in[/tex], the volume is undergoing a total change of

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=2\pi(5\,\mathrm{in})(11\,\mathrm{in})\left(6\dfrac{\rm in}{\rm s}\right)+\pi(5\,\mathrm{in})^2\left(-3\dfrac{\rm in}{\rm s}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=585\pi\dfrac{\mathrm{in}^3}{\rm s}}[/tex]

The volume of the right circular cylinder is changing at a rate of 255π cubic inches/sec with the radius increasing at 6 in./s and height decreasing at 3 in./s.

The question involves the application of calculus concepts particularly related to volume flow rate. The volume (V) of a right circular cylinder is given by V = πr²h, where r is the radius and h is the height. We can take the derivative in respect to time (t) of both sides, which will result in dV/dt = πrh(dr/dt) + πr²(dh/dt).

According to the problem, dr/dt = 6 in./s and dh/dt = -3 in./s. The volume is changing when the radius (r) is 5 in. and the height (h) is 11 in. Substituting all these values into the formula, we get: dV/dt = π(5)(11)(6) + π(5)²(-3). This equals 330π - 75π = 255π cubic inches/sec.

Thus, the volume of the cylinder is changing at a rate of 255π cubic inches/sec.

QUESTION 18

Use the Pythagorean Identity.

[tex] \cos^{2}( \theta) +\sin^{2}( \theta) = 1[/tex]

We substitute the given value into the formula,

[tex] \cos^{2}( \theta) +( { \frac{4}{7} })^{2} = 1[/tex]

[tex] \cos^{2}( \theta) + \frac{16}{49} = 1[/tex]

[tex] \cos^{2}( \theta) = 1 - \frac{16}{49} [/tex]

[tex]\cos^{2}( \theta) = \frac{33}{49} [/tex]

Since we are in the first quadrant, we take positive square root,

[tex]\cos( \theta) = \sqrt{\frac{33}{49} } [/tex]

[tex]\cos( \theta) = \frac{ \sqrt{33}}{7} [/tex]

The 3rd choice is correct.

QUESTION 19.

We want to simplify;

[tex]18 \sin( \theta) \sec( \theta) [/tex]

Recall the reciprocal identity

[tex] \sec( \theta) = \frac{1}{ \cos( \theta) } [/tex]

This implies that,

[tex]18 \sin( \theta) \sec( \theta) =18 \sin( \theta) \times \frac{1}{ \cos( \theta) } [/tex]

[tex]18 \sin( \theta) \sec( \theta) =18 \times \frac{\sin( \theta) }{ \cos( \theta) } [/tex]

This will give us:

[tex]18 \sin( \theta) \sec( \theta) =18 \tan( \theta) [/tex]

The correct choice is D.
