If sin theta =7/25, use the Pythagorean identity to find cos theta

Mathematics

Ksenya-84 [330]3 years ago

Answer:

\cos(\theta)=\pm \frac{24}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know where \theta is so there is going to be two possibilities for cosine value, one being positive while the other is negative.

A Pythagorean Identity is \cos^2(\theta)+\sin^2(\theta)=1.

We are given \sin(\theta)=\frac{7}{25}.

So we are going to input \frac{7}{25} for the sin(\theta):

\cos^2(\theta)+(\frac{7}{25})^2=1

\cos^2(\theta)+\frac{49}{625}=1

Subtract 49/625 on both sides:

\cos^2(\theta)=1-\frac{49}{625}

Find a common denominator:

\cos^2(\theta)=\frac{625-49}{625}

\cos^2(\theta)=\frac{576}{625}

Square root both sides:

\cos(\theta)=\pm \sqrt{\frac{576}{625}}

\cos(\theta)=\pm \frac{\sqrt{576}}{\sqrt{625}}

\cos(\theta)=\pm \frac{24}{25}

Answer:

2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn both fractions into improper fractions, multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator.

4 3/4

4 * 4 + 3 = 19

19/4

2 1/4

2 * 4 + 1 = 9

9/4

Now since she drank 2 1/4 gallons of juice, subtract 9/4 from 19/4.

19/4 - 9/4 = 10/4

Now turn back into a mixed fraction, do this by putting 4 into ten twice and taking the remainder and putting it as numerator:

4 * 2 = 8

10 - 8 = 2

2 1/2

____ [38]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given to you is in y=mx+b form.

m is the slope which in this case would be 2/9.

b is the y-intercept which in this case would be 1/3

It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. One study looked at the average number of minute
Molodets [167]

Answer:

10.38% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 410 minutes.

99.55% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 410 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mildly obese

Normally distributed with mean 375 minutes and standard deviation 68 minutes. So \mu = 375, \sigma = 68

What is the probability (±0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 410 minutes?

So n = 6, s = \frac{68}{\sqrt{6}} = 27.76

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 410.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{410 - 375}{27.76}

Z = 1.26

Z = 1.26 has a pvalue of 0.8962.

So there is a 1-0.8962 = 0.1038 = 10.38% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 410 minutes.

Lean

Normally distributed with mean 522 minutes and standard deviation 106 minutes. So \mu = 522, \sigma = 106

What is the probability (±0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 410 minutes?

So n = 6, s = \frac{106}{\sqrt{6}} = 43.27

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 410.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{410 - 523}{43.27}

Z = -2.61

Z = -2.61 has a pvalue of 0.0045.

So there is a 1-0.0045 = 0.9955 = 99.55% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 410 minutes
