The answer is 623/800 and that is in simplest form.
The second bicycle would weigh 1.32142857143 pounds or rounded to 1.32.
You would find this by multiply 18.5 by 1/14
We turn -5,12 into polar coordinates. It's a Pythagorean Triple so
r = 13 Ф=arctan(-12/5) + 180° ( in the second quadrant )
so -5 = 13 cos Ф, 12 = 13 sin Ф
12 sin x - 5 cos x = 6.5
13 sinФ sin x + 13 cos Ф cos x = 6.5
13 cos(x - Ф) = 6.5
cos(x - Ф) = 1/2
cos(x - Ф) = cos 60°
x - Ф = ± 60° + 360° k integer k
x = Ф ± 60° + 360° k
x = 180° + arctan(-12/5) ± 60° + 360° k
That's the exact answer;
x ≈ 180° - 67.38° ± 60° + 360° k
x ≈ 122.62° ± 60° + 360° k
x ≈ { 62.62°, 182.62°} + 360° k, integer k
Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is based on Secant Secant theorem.
Secant Secant theorem gives us the following formula:
(AB + BD)AB = (AC + CE).AC
From the above question we have the following parameters
AB = 5
BD = x
AC = 7.5
CE = 4.5
Hence,
(AB + BD)AB = (AC + CE).AC
(5 + x)5 = (7.5 + 4.5)7.5
25 + 5x = 90
Collect like terms
5x = 90 - 25
5x = 65
x = 65/5
x = 13
