Let u be an angle in the 4th quadrant with cos u=8/9 Then sin u=

1 answer:

5 0

To solve for the last side of the triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem:
(8)^2 + x^2 = (9)^2
x = sqrt of 17
However, this is a NEGATIVE sqrt 17 because the terminal side is in quadrant 4, meaning that this side is under the X-axis and therefore negative.
Now that you know the side opposite of u in the triangle, do opposite/hypotenuse.
sin u = -(sqrt 17)/9

Suppose that y varies directly as x and y=10 when x=8. Find the value of x when y=30

x = 24

30/10 = 3

So, 3x = 24

Can someone help me I have two more other questions they are 15 points each I just posted them right now! Thanks so much

Answer:

76˚

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles of a triangle total up to 180˚ so we can make this equation:

x - 14 + 1/2x + 7 + 2x - 128 = 180

3.5x - 135 = 180

3.5x = 315

x = 90

Angle A is x - 14

90 - 14

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

L = 10 - 1.25t

t = 1 ⇒ L = 10 - 1.25 = 8.75 inches

t = 2 ⇒ L = 10 - 1.25(2) = 7.5 inches

t = 3 ⇒ L = 10 - 1.25(3) = 6.25 inches

Which function represents g(x) a reflection of f(c)=1/2(3)x across the y-axis

sukhopar [10]

Hello,

I suppose you mean f(x)=3^x /2

g(x)=3^(-x) /2

Which rule matches the function graphed below? y= - 2x. y= x+4 y = 2x y = x -4

umka21 [38]

y=-2x
We know this because the slope is -2 (slope is found using rise/run, in this case the rise is 2 and the run is -1, so 2/-1=-2), and the y-intercept is at 0 (the y-intercept is the point at which a line crosses the y-axis).
