Solve 4 + 2 sinx= 14-8 sinx for 0° ≤ x ≤ 180
Oduvanchick [21]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>x= 90°</u>.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

<h3>1. Write the expression.</h3>

4 + 2 sin(x)= 14-8 sin(x)

<h3>2. Subtract "4" from both sides of the equation.</h3>

-4+4 + 2 sin(x)= 14-8 sin(x)-4\\ \\2 sin(x)= 10-8 sin(x)

<h3>3. Add "8sin(x)" to both sides of the equation.</h3>

2 sin(x)+8 sin(x)= 10-8 sin(x)+8 sin(x)\\ \\10 sin(x)= 10

<h3>4. Divide both sides by 10.</h3>

\frac{10 sin(x)}{10} = \frac{10}{10} \\ \\sin(x)=1

<h3>5. Apply the arcsin of sin^-1 to both sides of the equation.</h3>

arcsin(sin(x))=arcsin(1)\\ \\x=90

<h3>6. Conclude.</h3>

<u>x= 90°</u>.

The longest side of an acute triangle measures 30 inches. The two remaining sides are congruent, but their length is
qwelly [4]

Answer:

(C)72.4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an acute triangle in which the longest side measures 30 inches; and the other two sides are congruent.

Consider the attached diagram

AB=BC=x

However to be able to solve for x, we form a right triangle with endpoints A and C.

Since the hypotenuse is always the longest side in a right triangle

Hypotenuse, AC=30 Inches

Using Pythagoras Theorem

30^2=x^2+x^2\\900=2x^2\\x^2=450\\x=\sqrt{450}\\x=21.21$ inches

Therefore, the smallest possible perimeter of the triangle

Perimeter=2x+30

=2(21.21)+30

=42.42+30

=72.4 Inches (rounded to the nearest tenth)

To find the coordinates of point L, the midpoint of JK, the equation M = can be used. What are the coordinates of point L? L(1,
anygoal [31]
Since we are already given with the formula to solve for the coordinates of point L, all we have to do is to perform the necessary operation in the item. The formula for the coordinates of the midpoint is,                    M = ((5 + 1) / 2 , (3 - 7) / 2)performing the operation,                   M = (3, -2)Thus, the coordinates of point L are (3,-2).

5x + 2y = 7
zvonat [6]

Answer:

(\frac{5}{7},\frac{12}{7})

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is

5x+2y=7

y=x+1

We substitute the bottom equation into the top equation to get:

5x+2(x+1)=7

Expand to get:

5x+2x+2=7

Group similar terms:

5x+2x=7-2

Combine similar terms:

7x=5

x=\frac{5}{7}

Put x=\frac{5}{7} into the bottom equation

y=\frac{5}{7}+1

y=\frac{5+7}{7}

y=\frac{12}{7}

The solution is

(\frac{5}{7},\frac{12}{7})

A park is in the shape of a rectangle 2 miles long and 1.5 miles wide. How much shorter if you walk diaganolly across the park r
Nimfa-mama [501]
You can answer this by using Pythagoras theorem. Okay, let me draw this first.

            2 miles
               V
________________________
|                                        |
|                                        |
|                                        |   << 1.5 miles
|_______________________|  

^ Assume this is the rectangle. The long side is 2 miles while the shorter side is 1.5 miles.

So, to get the shortest distance, let's cut out a triangle from the rectangle. 

                                                         /|
                                                       /  |
                                                     /    |
What we want to find is this one >  /      |  << 2 miles
                                                  /        |
                                                /______|
                                                   ^ 1.5 miles (I know the size is not logical,but imagine                                                                       it please)

So to get the diagonal length = \sqrt{{a^{2} }+ b^{2}}
                                          =  \sqrt{{2^{2} }+ 1.5^{2}}
                                          =  2.5 miles

To calculate how much shorter = ( 2 miles + 1.5 miles) - 2.5 miles
                                             = 3.5 miles - 2.5 miles
                                             = 1.0 miles

Hope this help !
