<h3>Answer:  116.2°</h3>

Work Shown:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\cos(C)\\\\55^2 = 24^2 + 40^2 - 2*24*40\cos(C)\\\\3025 = 576 + 1600 - 1920\cos(C)\\\\3025 = 2176 - 1920\cos(C)\\\\3025 - 2176  = -1920\cos(C)\\\\849  = -1920\cos(C)\\\\-1920\cos(C) = 849\\\\\cos(C) = (849)/(-1920)\\\\\cos(C) \approx -0.4421875\\\\C \approx \cos^{-1}(-0.4421875)\\\\C \approx 116.243535748231^{\circ}\\\\C \approx 116.2^{\circ}\\\\

The first equation is one of the three variations for the Law of Cosines.

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH MY MATH
Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

y is 3 times more than x.

X=0 Y=0  3x0=0

X=1  Y=3

X=2 Y=6

X=3 Y=9

X=4 Y=12

Then just plot it as co-ordinates (x,y)

2)

Y is 1/4 of x. Divide by 4

X=0 Y=0

X=4 Y=1

X=8 Y=2

X=12 Y=3

X=16 Y=4

Then just plot it as co-ordinates (x,y)

Write a polynomial of degree 3 whose only roots are x=2 and x=2/5. Is there another polynomial of degree 3 that has the same roo
TEA [102]
One such polynomial might be

(x-2)\left(x-\dfrac25\right)^2

Another with the same roots would be

(x-2)^2\left(x-\dfrac25\right)
