The value of the function f(x) = x² + 6x - 9 when x = -5 is -14.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

An independent variable is a variable that does not depends on other variable while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variable.

Given that:

f(x) = x² + 6x - 9

When x = -5:

f(-5) = (-5)² + 6(-5) - 9 = -14

The value of the function f(x) = x² + 6x - 9 when x = -5 is -14.

A ball is tossed between three friends. The first toss is 8.6 feet, the second is 5.8 feet, and the third toss is 7.5 feet, whic

Rainbow [258]

angles formed by these tosses are $79.45, 59.02$ and $41.53$ degrees to the nearest hundredth.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here , We have a triangle with sides of length 8.6 feet, 5.8 feet and 7.5 feet.

The Law of Cosines (also called the Cosine Rule) says:

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab (cosx)$

Using the Cosine Rule to find the measure of the angle opposite the side of length 8.6 feet:

⇒ $c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab (cosx)$

⇒ $c^2 -a^2 - b^2 = -2ab (cosx)$

⇒ $(cosx) =\frac{ c^2 -a^2 - b^2}{ -2ab}$

⇒ $(cosx) =\frac{(8.6^2 - 5.8^2 - 7.5^2)}{ ( -2(5.8)7.5)}$

⇒ $(cosx) =0.18310$

⇒ $cos^{-1}(cosx) = cos^{-1}(0.18310)$

⇒ $x = 79.45$

The Law of Sines (or Sine Rule) is very useful for solving triangles:

$\frac{a}{sin A} = \frac{ b}{sin B} = \frac{c}{sin C}$

We can now find another angle using the sine rule:

⇒ $\frac{ 8.6 }{ sin 79.45} = \frac{7.5}{ sin Y}$

⇒ $sin Y = \frac{(7.5 (sin 79.45))}{ 8.6}$

⇒ $Y = 59.02 degrees$

So, the third angle = $180 - 79.45 - 59.02 = 41.53 degrees.$

Therefore, angles formed by these tosses are $79.45, 59.02$ and $41.53$ degrees to the nearest hundredth.

Answer:

9000. the value of 9 in 920 is 900. and ten times anything is basically just adding a 0. so ten times 900 is 9000.

What is the value of the correlation coefficient r of the data set?

enyata [817]

The correct option will be: C) 0.84

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Formula for Correlation coefficient :

$r= \frac{n(\Sigma xy)-(\Sigma x)(\Sigma y)}{\sqrt{[n\Sigma x^2-(\Sigma x)^2][n\Sigma y^2-(\Sigma y)^2]}}$

First, for each point(x, y), we need to calculate x², y² and xy .

Then, we will find sum all x, y, x², y² and xy, which gives us Σx, Σy, Σx², ∑y² and Σxy

<em>(Please refer to the attached image for the table )</em>

Here we got, ∑x = 44 , ∑y = 183 , ∑x² = 362 , ∑y² = 6575 and ∑xy = 1480

'n' is the total number of data set, which is 7 here.

So, plugging those values into the above formula..........

$r= \frac{n(\Sigma xy)-(\Sigma x)(\Sigma y)}{\sqrt{[n\Sigma x^2-(\Sigma x)^2][n\Sigma y^2-(\Sigma y)^2]}}\\ \\ r=\frac{7(1480)-(44)(183)}{\sqrt{[7(362)-(44)^2][7(6575)-(183)^2]}}\\ \\ r=\frac{10360-8052}{\sqrt{(598)(12536)}}\\ \\ r=\frac{2308}{\sqrt{7496528}}\\ \\ r=0.84$

So, the value of the correlation coefficient is 0.84
