Answer:

54.98 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram, the sides of the A-Frame are lengths AB and BC. The width of the cabin is length BC. We are to determine the measure of the angle at B, i.e. the angle between the two sides of the roof.

Using Cosine Rule:

$b^2=a^2+c^2-2acCos B\\Cos B=\dfrac{b^2-a^2-c^2}{-2ac} \\B=arcCos(\dfrac{b^2-a^2-c^2}{-2ac} )\\a=26, b=24, c=26\\B=arcCos(\dfrac{24^2-26^2-26^2}{-2*26*26} )\\=arcCos 0.5739\\B=54.98^0$

The angle in between the two sides of the roof is 54.98 degrees.

If you have a spinner with 5 slots, what is the compound probability of spinning an even number, then an odd number? Expressed a

Minchanka [31]

Since the spinner has 5 slots it contains 3 odd and 2 evens,

Odds ⇒ 1, 3, 5

Evens⇒ 2,4

this can be expressed as

$\frac{2}{5} =\frac{x}{100}$ , cross multiply and we get

$5x=200$

$x=40$ %

Simplifly the expression 64^7/12

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

$8\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$64^{\frac{7}{12}}$

we know that

$64=2^{6}$

substitute

$64^{\frac{7}{12}}=(2^{6})^{\frac{7}{12}}\\ \\=(2)^{\frac{6*7}{12}} \\ \\=(2)^{\frac{7}{2}} \\ \\=\sqrt{2^{7}}\\ \\=2^{3}\sqrt{2} \\ \\=8\sqrt{2}$

PLEASE HELP ME ASAPP !!

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

1. you start with $ 3 and save $1 each month

2. your total savings is 3 times the number of month multiplied by itself

3. you save $3 the first month and then each month the amount triples

Step-by-step explanation:

as y axis represents savings while x axis represents months

the statement "you start with $ 3 and save $1 each month"

is best described by the graph of straight line having slope of 1 and intercept of 3.

2. your total savings is 3 times the number of month multiplied by itself

= 3(x)(x)

= 3x^2

3. as y axis represents savings while x axis represents months

the statement "you save $3 the first month and then each month the amount triples" is best described by the exponential graph starting to rise from point (1,3) which means $3 save at 1 month.

Find f'(x) for f(x) = cos^2(3x^3).

garik1379 [7]

$f(x) = \cos^2(3x^3)\\f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}[\cos^2(3x^3)]\\= 2\cos(3x^3) \cdot \frac{d}{dx}[cos(3x^3)]\\= 2\cos(3x^3) \cdot (-\sin(3x^3)) \cdot \frac{d}{dx}[3x^3]\\= 2\cos(3x^3) \cdot (-\sin(3x^3)) \cdot 9x^2\\= -18x^2\cos(3x^3)\sin(3x^3)$
