Answer: Took the test correct :)

Step-by-step explanation:Problem 1

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(18) = x/25

25*cos(18) = x

x = 25*cos(18)

x = 23.7764129073789

x = 23.78

Answer: x = 23.78

=====================================================

Problem 2

theta = greek letter that looks like a "zero" or the letter O with a horizontal line through it

With the reference angle of theta, the opposite side is 3. This side is the leg furthest from the angle theta. In contrast, the side 4 is the closest leg to theta. The longest side 5 is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is always the lonest side

sin(theta) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(theta) = 3/5

cos(theta) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(theta) = 4/5

tan(theta) = opposite/adjacent

tan(theta) = 3/4

---------------------------

In summary:

sin(theta) = 3/5

cos(theta) = 4/5

tan(theta) = 3/4

=====================================================

Problem 3

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(x) = 15/29

x = arccos(15/29) .... inverse cosine or cos^(-1) also works

x = 58.852610078491

x = 58.85

Answer: x = 58.85

=====================================================

Problem 4

The rule we'll use is

sin(x) = cos(90-x)

sin(theta) = cos(90-theta)

cos(90-theta) = cos(58)

90 - theta = 58

90 - theta+theta = 58+theta

90 = 58+theta

90-58 = 58+theta-58

32 = theta

theta = 32

Answer: 32

=====================================================

Problem 5

x = height of pole

the vertical side is the side we want, which is the opposite side compared to the angle 55 degrees

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(55) = x/25

25*sin(55) = x

x = 25*sin(55)

x = 20.4788011072248

x = 20.5

Each pole is roughly 20.5 feet tall.

=====================================================

Problem 6

The exact value is the fraction sqrt(3)/2 which can be written as \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

"sqrt" is shorhand for "square root"

Factor the expression and simplify as much as possible. 24x(x2 1)4(x3 1)5 42x2(x2 1)5(x3 1)4

zmey [24]

Answer: 120[4(x^6 + x^3 + x^4 + x) +7(x^7 + x^4 + x^5 + x^2)]

Step-by-step explanation:

=24x(x^2 + 1)4(x^3 + 1)5 + 42x^2(x^2 + 1)5(x^3 + 1)4

Remove the brackets first

=[(24x^3 +24x)(4x^3 + 4)]5 + [(42x^4 +42x^2)(5x^3 + 5)4]

=[(96x^6 + 96x^3 +96x^4 + 96x)5] + [(210x^7 + 210x^4 + 210x^5 + 210x^2)4]

=(480x^6 + 480x^3 + 480x^4 + 480x) + (840x^7 + 840x^4 + 840x^5 + 840x^2)

Then the common:

=[480(x^6 + x^3 + x^4 + x) + 840(x^7 + x^4 + x^5 + x^2)]

=120[4(x^6 + x^3 + x^4 + x) +7(x^7 + x^4 + x^5 + x^2)]

A national survey showed that 44% of college students drink. A professor provided his own survey by choosing a random sample of

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

It is an unusual result contradicting the national survey.

Step-by-step explanation:

National survey showed 44% of college students who drink.

The professor's survey showed that 96/244 = 39% drink.

The professor's survey deviated from the national survey is 5% (44% - 39%) representing about 0.25% (5% squared) variance.

Standard deviation is the spread of a set of numbers from their mean. In other words, it measures how far an observed value is from the mean. It can be calculated by getting the square root of the variance.

5x^2 + 19x + 12=0<br> how do i figure this out

zlopas [31]

Answer:

x=−4/5 or x=−3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.

(5x+4)(x+3)=0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.

5x+4=0 or x+3=0

x=−4/5 or x=−3

How is multiplying exponents (x^2*x^4) different from raising a power to a power((x^2)^4)? Ty =)

Contact [7]

Answer:

When your multiplying exponents in the same parenthasis like x^2*x^4, you'll add the exponents so it will be x^6. If it is outside the parenthasis like (x^2)^4 you'll multiply the exponents so it will be x^8. good luck! :)
