868 is about 870, and 28 is about 30, so your expression would be 870 divided by 30 which would be 29 and the actual answer is 31, so your estimate would be close to your actual answer.

You could do 870/30=29.
<span>Or you could do 868/28=31 </span>and then round it<span> but it looks like it doesn't need rounding.</span>

5.7y-5.2=y/2.5 how to solve
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

5.7y-5.2=y/2.5

Add 5.2 to both sides:

5.7y = y/2.5 + 5.2

y/2.5 = 0.4y

5.7y = 0.4y + 5.2

Subtract 0.4y from both sides:

5.3y = 5.2

Divide both sides by 5.3:

y = 5.2/5.3

y = 0.98113

2. Consider the circle x² + y2 = 1, given in figure. Let OP makes an angle 30° with the x axis.
PolarNik [594]

The equation of the tangent line to the circle passing through the point P is; y = (1/√3)x ± 2/√3

<h3>How to find the equation of the tangent?</h3>

I) We are given the equation of the circle as;

x² + y² = 1

Since angle of inclination is 30°, then slope is;

m = tan 30 = 1/√3

Then equation of the tangent will be;

y = (1/√3)x + c

Put  (√3)x + c into the given circle equation to get;

x² + ((1/√3)x + c)² = 1

x² + ¹/₃x² +  (2/√3)cx + c² = 1

⁴/₃x² +  (2/√3)x + (c² - 1) = 0

Since we need to find value of c for equation to become tangent, then the above quadratic equation must have real and equal roots.

Thus;

((2/√3)c)² - 4(⁴/₃)(c² - 1) = 0

⁴/₃c² - ¹⁶/₃(c² - 1) = 0

⁴/₃c² - ¹⁶/₃c² + ¹⁶/₃ = 0

4c² = ¹⁶/₃

c² = ⁴/₃

c = √⁴/₃

c = ±²/√3

Thus, equation of tangent is;

y = (1/√3)x ± 2/√3

II) Radius from the given equation is 1. Thus, we will use trigonometric ratio to find the x and y intercept;

x-intercept is at y = 0;

0 = (1/√3)x ± 2/√3

-(1/√3)x = ±2/√3

Intercept is positive. Thus;

x = (2/√3)/(1/√3)

x = 1

y - intercept is positive at x = 0;

y = (1/√3)0 ± 2/√3

y = 2/√3

Solve for x.<br> 5<br> 10<br> 12<br> 13
zysi [14]

Answer: B)  4 & 1/6

Nice work on getting the correct answer.

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

Explanation:

x is opposite the marked acute angle

5 is opposite the corresponding acute angle

So x and 5 are proportional to each other. We can form the ratio x/5

Similarly, 10 and 12 are proportional to one another. We can form the ratio 10/12.

Set those ratios equal to each other and solve for x

x/5 = 10/12

12x = 5*10 ... cross multiply

12x = 50

x = 50/12 ...... divide both sides by 12

x = (25*2)/(6*2)

x = 25/6

x = (24+1)/6

x = 24/6 + 1/6

x = 4 + 1/6

x = 4 & 1/6 which shows why <u>choice B</u> is the answer.

Side note: 25/6 = 4.167 approximately
