In triangle ABC angle A=45 angle B =40 and a=7.Which equation should you solve to find b?

We have been given that in triangle ABC angle A=45 angle B =40 and a=7. We are asked to find the equation that we can use to solve for 'f'.

We have two angles and opposite sides to these angles.

We will use Law of Sines to solve our given problem.

$\frac{a}{\sin(A)}=\frac{b}{\sin(B)}=\frac{c}{\sin(C)}$ , where a, b and c are opposite sides corresponding to angles A, B, and C respectively.

The angle opposite to side b is 40 degrees and angle opposite to side a is 45 degrees.

Upon substituting these values in Law of Sines, we will get:

$\frac{7}{\sin(45^{\circ})}=\frac{b}{\sin(40^{\circ})}$

Therefore, our required equation would be $\frac{7}{\sin(45^{\circ})}=\frac{b}{\sin(40^{\circ})}$ .

Answer:

The answer is y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we need to turn it into an equation. Then we can follow the order of operations to solve.

y - 12 = 8

y = 20

Answer:

$122.88

Step-by-step explanation:

the phone decreases by 20% each year , that is

(100 - 20)% = 80% = $\frac{80}{100}$ = 0.8

the phone reduces by a factor of 0.8 each year , then after 4 years

value = $300 × $(0.8)^{4}$ = $122.88

Answer:

a) $n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=2401$

And rounded up we have that n=2401

b) $n=\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=625.22$

And rounded up we have that n=626

And we see that if we have previous info about p the sample size varies a lot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Solution to the problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

Part a

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.02$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

Since we don't have prior information about the population proportion we can use ase estimator $\hat p =0.5$ . And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=2401$

And rounded up we have that n=2401

Part b

For thi case the estimator for p is $\hat p =0.07$

$n=\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^2}=625.22$

And rounded up we have that n=626

And we see that if we have previous info about p the sample size varies a lot.
