[(4x + 15) / 5x)] = 1/2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Arada [10]3 years ago
6 0
One way in which to approach this problem would be to treat it as an equation of ratios and to cross multiply:

<span>[(4x + 15) / 5x)] = 1/2  could be written as:

4x + 15        1
----------- =  ---
     5x           2

Then 8x + 30 = 5x

3x = -30,  and so     x = -10 (answer).  Be certain to check this answer through substitution!

23)   Does the following infinite geometric series diverge or converge? Explain.
Ksju [112]
It diverges; it does not have a sum.  the sum of a geometric series is given by a /(1-r) where a is the first term and the r is the ratio between the terms. r=3 in the series you have given . The absolute value of r must be less then 1 for a geometric series to converge.

What is the approximate angle measure for angle W in the triangle below?
Artyom0805 [142]
In this case we know the three sides of the triangle, then this is a SSS triangle (Side Side Side). To solve this case, first we must use the Law of Cosines, applied to the opposite side to the angle we want to find.
We want to find angle W, and its opposite side is XV, then we apply the Law of Cosines to the side XV:
XV^2=XW^2+WV^2-2(XW)(WV)cos W
Replacing the known values:
116^2=96^2+89^2-2(96)(89)cos W
Solving for W
13,456=9,216+7,921-17,088 cos W
13,456=17,137-17,088 cos W
13,456-17,137=17,137-17,088 cos W-17,137
-3,681=-17,088 cos W
(-3,681)/(-17,088)=(-17,088 cos W)/(-17,088)
0.215414326=cos W
cos W = 0.215414326

Solving for W:
W= cos^(-1) 0.215414326
Using the calculator:
W=77.56016397°
Rounded to one decimal place:
W=77.6°

Answer: Third option 77.6°
