Answer:
-17>-22
-22<-17
Negative seventeen is closer to zero, therefore it is always larger than negative twenty-two.
Answer:
x = ± 4
y = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 0.5x² - 10 ------------------------(I)
y = -x² + 14 ------------------------(II)
Substitute the y value in equation (II)
0.5x² - 10 = -x² + 14 {Add x² to both sides}
0.5x² + x² -10 = 14 {combine like terms}
1.5x² - 10 = 14 {Add 10 to both sides}
1.5x² = 14 + 10
1.5x² = 24 {Divide both sides by 1.5}
1.5x²/1.5 = 24/1.5
x² = 16
x = ±4
Substitute x = 4 in (I)
y = 0.5 * 4² - 10
= 0.5*16 - 10
= 8- 10
y = -2
Substitute x = -4 in (I)
y = 0.5 * (-4)² - 10
= 0.5*16 - 10
= 8- 10
y = -2
Answer:
1) ΔACD is a right triangle at C
=> sin 32° = AC/15
⇔ AC = sin 32°.15 ≈ 7.9 (cm)
2) ΔABC is a right triangle at C, using Pythagoras theorem, we have:
AB² = AC² + BC²
⇔ AB² = 7.9² + 9.7² = 156.5
⇒ AB = 12.5 (cm)
3) ΔABC is a right triangle at C
=> sin ∠BAC = BC/AB
⇔ sin ∠BAC = 9.7/12.5 = 0.776
⇒ ∠BAC ≈ 50.9°
4) ΔACD is a right triangle at C
=> cos 32° = CD/15
⇔ CD = cos32°.15
⇒ CD ≈ 12.72 (cm)
