What Is 5 1/2 - 2 5/6? Explain Your Answer

Mathematics
1 answer:
natulia [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

2 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Make them into improper fractions first.

11/2 - 17-6

Then multiply 11/2 so that they have common denominators.

33/6 - 17/6

Then solve.

33/6 - 17/6 = 16/6

Then convert back into a mixed number.

2 4/6 or 2 2/3

A cyclist estimates that he will bike 80 miles this week. He actually bikes 75.5 miles. What is the percent error of the cyclist
maw [93]

Answer:

<em>The percent error of the cyclist's estimate is 5.63%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

The cyclist estimates he will bike 80 miles this week, but he really bikes 75.5 miles.

The error of his estimate in miles can be calculated as the difference between his estimate and the real outcome:

Error = 80 miles - 75.5 miles = 4.5 miles

To calculate the error as a percent, we divide that quantity by the original estimate and multiply by 100%:

Error% = 4.5 / 80 * 100 = 5.625%

Rounding to the nearest hundredth:

The percent error of the cyclist's estimate is 5.63%

How do you solve this triangle by using the law of sine where
mars1129 [50]
Actually, when you know 2 sides and an included angle, you use the Law of Cosines. (and we don't know if theta is an included angle).
Solving for side c
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2ab * cos(C)
c^2 = 36 + 16 - 2*6*4 * cos(60)
c^2 = 52 -48*.5
c^2 = 28
c = 5.2915

Using the Law of Sines
side c / sin(C) = side b / sin (B)
5.2915 / sin(60) = 4 / sin (B)
sin(B) = sin(60) * 4 / 5.2915
sin(B) = 0.86603 * 4 / 5.2915
<span><span>sin(B) = 3.46412 </span> / 5.2915
</span> <span><span><span>sin(B) = 0.6546571451 </span> </span> </span> 
Angle B = 40.894 Degrees

sin (A) / side a = sin (B) / side b
sin (A) = 6 * sin (40.894) / 4
sin (A) = 6 * 0.65466 / 4
sin (A) = .98199
angle A = 79.109 Degrees

angle C = 60 Degrees

What is an algebra?​
Angelina_Jolie [31]
In its most general form, algebra is the study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating these symbols; it is a unifying thread of almost all of mathematics. It includes everything from elementary equation solving to the study of abstractions such as groups, rings, and fields.
