You can first use the fundamental trigonometric identity:

sin(x) ^2 + cos(x) ^2 = 1

=> cos(x) ^2 = 1 - sin(x) ^2

=> cos(x) ^2 = 1 - (-4/5)^2 = 1 - 16/25 = (25 - 16) / 25 = 9 /25

=> cos (x) = +/ - √ (9/25) = +/- 3/5

Now, analyze the sign.

In the fhird quadrant the cosine is negative, so the answer is cos(x) = - 3/5.

Answer: option C. - 3/5

Answer:

y = 7 sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp/ hyp

sin 45 = 7/y

y sin 45 = 7

y = 7/ sin 45

y = 7 / (1/sqrt(2) )

y = 7 sqrt(2)

An equation that represents the path of a diver jumping off a diving board is y = –7x2 + 5x + 16. Graph this function from the p

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that represents the path of a diver jumping off a diving board is

$y = -7x^2 + 5x + 16.$

The diver jumped to the water when x = 0.

Then

$y=-7\cdot 0^2+5\cdot 0+16=16$

The jumper reached the water when y = 0, then

$-7x^2+5x+16=0\\ \\D=5^2-4\cdot (-7)\cdot 16=25+448=473\\ \\x_{1,2}=\dfrac{-5\pm\sqrt{473}}{-14}$

So, point where the jumper reached the water is

$\left(\dfrac{5+\sqrt{473}}{14},0\right)\approx (1.93,0)$

Answer:

6 + (d * 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are adding 6 to the equation after the amount d times 2. In that case, a parentheses is required to round up d * 2.
