Answer:
a)8/21
b)1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
because when we divide fraction we resprocal the divisor
The bottom answer is correct. I had some trouble with this so I had to find x and y in separate parts.
TO FIND X
notice that the top triangle and bottom triangles are similar, meaning if you multiple all three sides of one by a specific number, it becomes the same size as the bottom triangle.
17 x n = 8, therefore n=8/17
8 x n = X, therefore X=64/17
For some reason, this does not give a correct value for Y, so I had to use trig
TO FIND Y
Notice that the angle DAB is the same as DBC (lets call this angle Ø)
Using trig rule, we know that the cos of an angle is equal to the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuses.
We can now form some equations:
cosØ = 15/17 (from the top triangle)
cosØ = 8/Y (from bottom triangle)
Now we know that Y=(8x17)/15 = 136/15
X=64/15 Y=136/15
Answer:
Y = 7.60X + 1246.67
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
Production Volume (units) Total Cost ($)
400 4000
450 5000
550 5400
600 5900
700 6400
750 7000
Using technology, the linear regression calculator, the regression model obtained by fitting the data is :
Y = 7.60X + 1246.67 ; which is the model giving the relationship between Production volume, x and total cost, y.
Slope = 7.60
Intercept = 1246.67
This is adding two vectors, one magnitude 300 direction east, and one magnitude 100 direction 30 degrees northeast.
For the resulting sum we can use the Law of Cosines or just add up the components. Let's try it both ways.
Components first. In the east direction we have
300 + 100 cos 30° = 300 + 100(√3/2) = 386.60 miles per hour
In the north direction we have
0 + 100 sin 30° = 100 (1/2) = 50 miles per hour
So a total speed of
sqrt{386.6^2 + 50^2} = 389.82 miles per hour
Answer: 389.82
--------
OK let's try the Law of Cosines. We have sides 300 and 100 and included angle 150°.
Ok then after that what’s the question ?
