1) Write out what you know
       Blue: 5/8
       Green: 5/9 (of 3/8 because it is the remaining parts) so 5/24
       Red: 1 - (5/8 + 5/24) = 1/6
2) Find the total amount of people
       You know that 1/6 of the population is 48, so the total population is 288 (48×6)
3) Multiply the total population by the fractions to get the number of votes
       Blue: 288 × 5/8 = 180 votes
       Green: 288 × 5/24 = 60 votes

Check: 180 + 60 + 48 = 288 votes

Write a cosine function that has an amplitude of 3, a midline of 2 and a period
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

f(x) = 3 cos  (2Pi / period value ; x  )+ 2

or see answer using 2 as the period see answer in bold below.

Step-by-step explanation:

cosine function amplitude of 3 is  A = 3

The period is used to find B

You need to show period value as the denominator and work out from there with 2PI as a function numerator to show as 2pi / period can be a data angle

C is the adding value.

Acos (Bx) + C

A = 3

Bx =  2 pi / period

C = + 2

However f 2 is also the period found

then we just plug in 2 to above formula

f(x) = 3 cos  (2Pi / 2 ; x  )+ 2

f(x) = 3cos (x pi) + 2

Which of the following triangles are impossible to draw? Choose all that apply.
ioda
I would say a triangle with two right angles because a triangle's angles add to 180 degrees. If a triangle has two right angles, it means that two angles will be 90 degrees, which add to 180 degrees. A triangle must have three angles and sides, and it is not possible for the last angle to be 0 degrees.

Hope this helps

What value of x will make the equation below true?<br> 5x = 12x – 28
mash [69]
X = 4
First take 12x off both sides, so -7x=-28
The negatives cancel out, so 7x=28
Not find the hcf and divide by that.
