PLEASE HELP URGENT Given \tan \theta =0.6, find the value of b.

Mathematics
1 answer:
xxTIMURxx [149]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

b=8.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

tanx (this represents tan theta, it's just easier to type) is equal to 0.6 and since the tanx ratio is opp/adj, we know that opp/adj = 0.6

To find what b is (adjacent as it is adjacent to the angle being used and it is not the hypotenuse), we just have to rearrange.

0.6=5.1/adj

to solve for adj, we can switch 0.6 and adj. (This works because to get adj by itself on one side you would multiply it to the other side and then divide 0.6 from both sides --> simple algebra)

so then you have

adj=5.1/0.6

adj=8.5cm

(if you want to check your solution you can use pythagoeran theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2) and sub everything in and make sure all the numbers equal the right thing!

Write the following as a ratio: 304 calories burned in 56 minutes
IgorC [24]

Answer:

The required ratio is 38 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

304 calories burned in 56 minutes,

That is, the number of calories burnt in 56 minutes = 304

So, the ratio of the calories burnt and time in minutes  = \frac{304}{56}

∵ HCF(304, 56) = 8,

Thus, the ratio of price of photos and number of photos = \frac{304\div 8}{56\div 8}

= \frac{38}{7}

What value of x makes the
loris [4]

Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Add 1/4x to both sides</u>

-\frac{1}{4}x - 12 = x + 3

-12 - \frac{1}{4}x + \frac{1}{4}x = x + 3 + \frac{1}{4}x

-12 = \frac{5}{4}x + 3

<u>Step 2:  Subtract 3 from both sides</u>

-12 - 3 = \frac{5}{4}x + 3 - 3

-15 = \frac{5}{4}x

<u>Step 3:  Multiply both sides by 4/5</u>

-15*\frac{4}{5}=\frac{5}{4}x * \frac{4}{5}

-12 = x

Answer:  x = -12
