Hello from MrBillDoesMath

Answer:

[email protected] = - sqrt(7)/ 4    

which is choice B

Discussion:

This problem can be solved by drawing triangles and looking at ratios of sides or by using the trig identity:

([email protected])^2 + (sin2)^2 = 1

If [email protected] = 3/4 , the

([email protected])^2 + (3/4)^2 = 1 =>              (subtract (3/4)^2 from both sides)

([email protected])^2 = 1 - (3/4)^2  = 1 - 9/16   = 7/16

So...... taking the square root of both sides gives

[email protected] =  +\- sqrt(7)/ sqrt(16) = +\- sqrt(7)/4

But is [email protected] positive or negative?  We are told that @ is in the second quadrant and cos(@) is negative in this quadrant, so our answer must be negative

[email protected] = - sqrt(7)/ 4    

which is choice B


Thank you,

Mr. B

wel

Answer: 270 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the scale for a map to actual distance is 2 cm to 100 mi and that the driving distance on the map between Los Angeles and Las Vegas is 5.4 cm.

The actual distance, in miles, between Los Angeles and Las Vegas will go thus:

= 5.4cm/2cm × 100mi

= 2.7cm × 100miles

= 270 miles

Given the equation Y -4 equals three force X +8 in point slope form, identify the equation of the same line in standard form
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

3x - y = -28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation y-4 = 3(x+8), distribute and simplify to get the Standard Form.

y-4 = 3(x+8)

y - 4 = 3x + 24

y = 3x + 28

-3x + y = 28

Standard form does not allow the coefficient of x to be negative so multiply the equation by -1.

3x - y = -28

Please help with answer and number line​
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Graph uploaded!

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First, let's solve the distributive property.</u>

  • 4/5(x - 2) ≤ 6
  • => 4x/5 - 8/5 ≤ 6
  • => 4x/5 ≤ 6 + 8/5
  • => 4x/5 ≤ 38/5
  • => x ≤ 19/2

Now, let's plot this inequality on the line. Please check my graph.

Hoped this helped!

∑∞ n=1 (n^2n)/(1+n)^(3n)
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Given the series,

∑ ∞ n = 1 − 4 ( − 1 / 2 ) n − 1

I think the series is summation from n = 1 to ∞ of -4(-1/2)^(n-1)

So,

∑ − 4 ( − ½ )^(n − 1). From n = 1 to ∞

There are different types of test to show if a series converges or diverges

So, using Ratio test

Lim n → ∞ (a_n+1 / a_n)

Lim n → ∞ (-4(-1/ 2)^(n+1-1) / -4(-1/2)^(n-1))

Lim n → ∞ ((-4(-1/2)^(n) / -4(-1/2)^(n-1))

Lim n → ∞ (-1/2)ⁿ / (-1/2)^(n-1)

Lim n→ ∞ (-1/2)^(n-n+1)

Lim n→ ∞ (-1/2)^1 = -1/2

Since the limit is less than 0, then, the series converge...

Sum to infinity

Using geometric progression formula

S∞ = a / 1 - r

Where

a is first term

r is common ratio

So, first term is

a_1 = -4(-½)^1-1 = -4(-½)^0 = -4 × 1

a_1 = -4

Common ratio r = a_2 / a_1

a_2 = 4(-½)^2-1 = -4(-½)^1 = -4 × -½ = 2

a_2 = 2

Then,

r = a_2 / a_1 = 2 / -4 = -½

S∞ = -4 / 1--½

S∞ = -4 / 1 + ½

S∞ = -4 / 3/2 = -4 × 2 / 3

S∞ = -8 / 3 = -2⅔

The sum to infinity is -2.67 or -2⅔
