C, D, and E all represent parts of the situation.  

A does not, because x is actually 55 smaller than y, which is why both D and E work.  

B does not because it's doubling the sum of x = y, but the description says to double x and then add y (which is why C works).

X and y are the numbers
y>x

sum (addition) of twice a number (2x) and larger number (y) is (=) 145
2x+y=145

difference between them is 55 (y is bigger so it would be x is subtracted from y)
y-x=55

so the equations are

2x+y=145 and
y-x=55

we could add x to both sides in the 2nd equation to obtain
y=x+55, but that doesn't really represent that the difference is 55, though they are the same euation

so I would say C and D only

What are the coordinates of the terminal point determined by t=20pi/3?
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

(- 1/2 , √3/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

t=20π/3

t' = 20π/3 - 6π = 2π/3   (120°) ... 2nd quadrant

If we start from (1,0) of unit circle, the coordinate of terminal point (x,y)

OF/OE = - cos 60° = x / 1 =  - 1/2

FE/OE = sin 60° = y/1  = √3/2

What is 8.57x10-⁴ in standered form ?
marusya05 [52]

Kaleerain5,

In order to get your answer you must remember that if the exponent is negative move to the left and if the exponent is positive you have to move to the right.

  • 8.57 \times 10^{-4}
  • The exponent is negative so move to the left:
  • 8. = .8 = .08 = .008 = .0008
  • = .000857

Therefore your answer is ".000857."

Hope this helps!

The 3rd term and 7th terms of an arithmetic progression are 6 and 30 respectively
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step

Create an algebraic equation. 6N-12. 6x1 - 12 = -6. So -6 is the first term.

6x10-12 = 48. So 48 is the 10th term

Hope it helps

Sorry if it’s unclear
