In Rodger's state, unemployment compensation is calculated by finding the total of the quarterly wages of two consecutive quarte

rs and dividing by 26. The weekly unemployment is 65% of that amount. In the quarter including January, February, and March, Rodger made a total of $13,950.80. In the quarter including April, May, and June, he made a total of $14,250.10. Find Rodger's weekly unemployment amount.

Rodger's weekly unemployment amount is $ 705.0225

Given,

The total of the quarterly wages of two consecutive quarters and dividing by 26.

The weekly unemployment is 65% of that amount.

Rodger made a total of $13,950.80.

and, he made a total of $14,250.10

We have to follow the some steps for solving question:

Step 1: Find the total of the quarterly wages of two consecutive quarters.

= $ 13,950.80 + $ 14,250.10

= $28,200.90

Step 2 : Divide the total by 26

= $28,200.90 / 26

= 1,084.65

Step 3 : Find the 65%

= 1,084.65 x 65%

= 1,084.65 x 65/100

= 705.0225

Hence, Rodger's weekly unemployment amount is $ 705.0225

If sin(x) = 5/13, and x is in quadrant 1, then tan(x/2) equals what?

Rufina [12.5K]

$x$ is in quadrant I, so $0$ , which means $0$ , so $\dfrac x2$ belongs to the same quadrant.

Now,

$\tan^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{\sin^2\frac x2}{\cos^2\frac x2}=\dfrac{\frac{1-\cos x}2}{\frac{1+\cos x}2}=\dfrac{1-\cos x}{1+\cos x}$

Since $\sin x=\dfrac5{13}$ , it follows that

$\cos^2x=1-\sin^2x\implies \cos x=\pm\sqrt{1-\left(\dfrac5{13}\right)^2}=\pm\dfrac{12}{13}$

Since $x$ belongs to the first quadrant, you take the positive root ( $\cos x>0$ for $x$ in quadrant I). Then

$\tan\dfrac x2=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\frac{12}{13}}{1+\frac{12}{13}}}$

$\tan x$ is also positive for $x$ in quadrant I, so you take the positive root again. You're left with

$\tan\dfrac x2=\dfrac15$

What is an equation of the line that is perpendicular to −x+2y=4 and passes through the point (−2, 1) ?

Elza [17]

Answer:

y=-2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since our equation is in standard form Ax+By=C we must first manipulate the equation so that we have it in the slope-intercept form such that y=mx+b. Therefore:

$-x+2y=4\\2y=x+4\\\\y=\frac{x+4}{2}\\\\y=\frac{1}{2}x+2$

Therefore, our slope is 1/2 and our y-intercept is 2. Now in order to determine a perpendicular line to the one stated above we must then get the negative inverse of our slope meaning $\frac{1}{2}=-2$ (negative reciprocal). Now we must use the point slope formula:

$y=m(x-x_1)+y_1$

Where m is the slope, x1 is -2 and y1 is 1 (because of the ordered pair given). And so:

$y=-2(x-(-2))+1\\\\y=-2(x+2)+1\\\\y=-2x-4+1\\\\y=-2x-3$

Therefore, the line that is perpendicular to -x+2y=4 is y=-2x-3.
