PLEASE HELP DUE SOON! IM SO CONFUSED!!!

The first step that we need to take before attempting to solve a problem is to understand what the problem is asking us to do and what is given to us to help accomplish that goal.  Looking at the problem statement they are asking for us to determine the value of the unknown variable h.  We are given one angle along with two sides.

Now that we have completed that step, we can move onto understanding what needs to be done to solve for the unknown.  We know that the best option is to use some trigonometry to help us determine the other side. Using Soh | Cah | Toa we are able to determine that we have the opposite side (h) and the hypotenuse (15.6 cm).

<u>Trigonometric functions</u>

  • sin(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
  • cos(\theta) = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}
  • tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

<u>Plug in the values</u>

  • sin(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
  • sin(36) = \frac{h}{15.6\ cm}

We know have an expression which contains everything that we need to determine the value of the unknown.  To help isolate h we need to multiply both sides by 15.6 cm which will isolate h.  After that we need to simplify the expression so we can get the value of h.

<u>Multiply both sides by 15.6 cm</u>

  • sin(36) * 15.6\ cm = \frac{h}{15.6\ cm}  * 15.6\ cm
  • sin(36) * 15.6\ cm = h

<u>Simplify the expression</u>

  • 0.5878 * 15.6\ cm = h
  • 9.169 = h

After simplifying the expression, we are able to eliminate options A and C because they state that h is equal to 8.4 cm.  We also know that with the given dimensions we would be able to create two triangles. Therefore, the option that best incapsulates the correct answer would be option B - 9.2, two possible triangles.

16. Tell whether the lines for each pair of equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Given equation are:

y = -\frac{1}{4}x+8                  ......[1]

-2x+8y = 4                             .....[2]

  • The two lines are parallel lines then their slopes will be equal.
  • When two lines are perpendicular then, the slope of lines are the negative reciprocals of each other.

Now, Equation of a line is in the form of y =mx+b where m is the slope of the line.

Slope(m_1) of equation of line in [1] is;

y = -\frac{1}{4}x+8  

then;

m_1= -\frac{1}{4}

Slope(m_2) of equation of line in [2];

-2x+8y = 4

Add both sides 2x we get;

-2x + 8y + 2x = 2x + 4

Simplify:

8y = 2x +4

Divide both sides by 8 we get;

y = \frac{1}{4} x + \frac{1}{2}

then;

m_2 = \frac{1}{4}

Therefore, the given two lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

What are the relative frequencies, to the nearest hundredth, of the rows of the two-way table?
sveta [45]

Answer:       A                 B

Group 1     0.25          0.75

Group 2    0.44          0.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of people of A in group 1 = 15

Number of people of B in group 1 = 45

Total number of people in group 1 is given by

15+45=60

Relative frequency of people of A in Group 1 is given by

\frac{15}{60}=0.25

Relative frequency of people of B in Group 1 is given by

\frac{45}{60}=0.75

Similarly, Number of people of A in group 2 = 20

Number of people of B in group 2 = 25

Total number of people in group 2 is given by

20+25=45

Relative frequency of people of A in Group 2 is given by

\frac{20}{45}=0.44

Relative frequency of people of B in Group 2 is given by

\frac{25}{45}=0.56

Hence,        A                 B

Group 1     0.25          0.75

Group 2    0.44          0.56
