<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.

State which of the following sets of ordered pairs represent a function.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function can be termed as a process from a set of x values to a set of possible y-values where each x-value relates to exactly one y-value.

In other words, a relation can only be a function there is no repetition of x-values. It means a relation can not have duplicated inputs.

Given the sets

Set A: (5,2), (4, 3), (3, 4), (2,5)

Set B: (-1,-6), (0, 2), (1, 2), (3, 6)

Set C: (2, 1), (4, 2), (2, 3), (8,4)

It is clear that sets A and B represent the function because, in these sets, each x-value relates to exactly one y-value. In other words, there are no duplicated inputs.

But, set C has duplicated inputs i.e. x = 2 is repeated twice, and a function can not have a repeated input.

Therefore, we conclude that set A and set B represent a function.

Thus, option (D) is correct.

Find the value of using identities 996^2
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

992,016

Step-by-step explanation:

{996}^{2}  \\  =  {(1000 - 4)}^{2}  \\  =  {1000}^{2}  - 2 \times 1000 \times 4 +  {4}^{2}  \\  = 1000000 - 8000 + 16 \\  = 1000016 - 8000 \\  = 992,016 \\

Find the equation of a line passing through the point (2, 3) and having a slope of 3.
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter B) y = 3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Point = (2, 3)

slope = m = 3

Process

To solve this problem just substitute the values given in the slope-point equation.

Formula

               y - y1 = m(x - x1)

   x1 = 2      y1 = 3

-Substitution

              y - 3 = 3(x - 2)

-Expand

              y - 3 = 3x - 6

-Solve for y

             y = 3x - 6 + 3

-Result

             y = 3x - 3
