Answer:

AC=7.5 cm

CB=10.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we don't know the distance from C to B, we can label it as x. Our equation will be x+(x-3)=18. Simplify that so it is 2x-3=18. Add 3 to both sides and get 2x=21. x=10.5 So AC=7.5 cm and CB is 10.5 cm

Hi, having trouble understanding this question.. as well as solving it.
kramer

-- You have two angles.

-- They're complementary . . . they add up to 90 degrees.

-- One is 4 times as big as the other one.
___________________________________________

-- The smaller angle has 1 share of the 90 degrees.

-- The bigger angle has 4 shares of the 90 degrees.

-- (The smaller one is 1/4 the size of the bigger one.
   The bigger one is 4 times the size of the smaller one.)

-- When you add them together, you get 5 shares, totaling 90 degrees.

-- What's the size of each share ?  It's 90/5 = 18 degrees.

-- The smaller angle gets one share . . . 18 degrees.

-- The bigger angle gets 4 shares.   (4 x 18) = 72 degrees.
____________________________________

Check:

-- Is the small one 1/4 the size of the big one ?    18/72 = 1/4  Yes.

-- Are they complementary ?  Do they add up to 90 degrees ?

                                                                       18 + 72  =  90  Yes.

                                                                                 yay !

Rewrite the following fractions as division problems. a. 7⁄11 b. 5⁄2 c. 9⁄10 d. 7⁄15
larisa [96]
A. 7/11= 7 ÷ 11
B. 5/2= 5 ÷ 2
C. 9/10= 9 ÷ 10
D. 7/15= 7 ÷ 15

A fraction is just a division problem. 7/11 would be considered 7 ÷ 11 (or just 7/11) just do the same for the rest of the fractions.

If f(x)f(x) is an exponential function where f(-1)=5f(−1)=5 and f(7)=32f(7)=32, then find the value of f(4)f(4), to the nearest
Whitepunk [10]

Using an exponential function, it is found that the value of the function when x = 4 is of f(4) = 15.95.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

It is modeled by:

y = ab^x

In which:

  • a is the initial value.
  • b is the rate of change, as a decimal.

In this problem, we have that f(-1)=5, hence:

5 = ab^{-1}

\frac{a}{b} = 5

a = 5b

We also have that f(7)=32, hence:

32 = ab^7

Since a = 5b:

5b^8 = 32

b = \sqrt[8]{\frac{32}{5}}

b = 1.2612.

a = 5b = 5 x 1.2612 = 6.306.

Hence the function is given by:

y = 6.306(1.2612)^x

Then, when x = 4, we have that:

y = 6.306(1.2612)^4 = 15.95
