Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

The way the diagram looks when it is drawn is that you are going to need the sine function to solve for the side opposite which is CD.

Formula

Sin(A) = Sin(68 = opposite / hypotenuse     Substitute values.

Solution

sin(68) = altitude (side opposite) / 20       multiply both sides by 20

20*sin(68) = 20* altitude / 20                     substitute for sin(68)

20* 0.9272 = altitude

altitude = 18.5

Answer: 18.5 to the nearest tenth

Diane needs a pice of paper whose length is 4 more inchs than width, and the area is as close as possible to 50 in^2. TO the nea
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Width = 5 inches

Length = 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The paper;

Length = (x + 4) inches

Width = x inches

The area is close as possible to 50 square inches.

Since this paper is rectangular in shape; the area of a rectangle is given by:

Area = Length × Width

∴ (x + 4) * x = 50 square inches

x² + 4x = 50

Let the area be equal to 45 square inches;

Applying the quadratic formula, x = 5 or -9

But since we are dealing with length measurements, the value of x = 5 inches.

So the width = 5 inches and;

length = 5 + 4 = 9 inches.

Consider the function f(x) = x2 + 3x − 7. Find the value of f(x) when x = 3 and select the correct answer below.
victus00 [196]

<em>Answer</em>

= 11

<em>Explanation</em>

f(x) = x² + 3x- 7

To get the value of f(x) when x = 3, we substitute x with 3 in the function f(x).

f(x) = x² + 3x- 7

= 3² + (3×3) -7

= 9 + 9 - 7

= 11
