Let teh greek symbol theta be equal to x. since the triangle is scalene, then apply law of cosine.

a2=b2 + c2 - 2cosx
let a = 7, b = 8 and c = 10

7^2 = 8^2 + 10^2 - 2(8)(10)cosx
cosx = 23/32 or 0.72
x = 44.05 degrees
 
the answer is letter C

Let
T = theta
Use the Law of Cosines to get
c^2 = a^2+b^2 - 2ab*cos(T)
<span>7^2 = 10^2+8^2 - 2*10*8*cos(T)
</span><span>49  = 164 - 160*cos(T)
-160cos(T) = 49-164
</span><span>-160cos(T) = -115
</span>cos(T) = -115/(-160)
cos(T) = 23/32
cos(T) = 0.71875 which rounds to 0.72

The final answer is C) 0.72

Need help please...answer correctly ​
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

9.09

Step-by-step explanation:

x=speed of boat

y=speed of water current

Downstream relative speed = x+y

Upstream relative speed = x-y

Distance remains the same for both upstream and downstream.

a) Distance travelled downstream = speed x time = 3(x+y)

Distance travelled upstream = speed x time = 3.6(x-y)

b) Since both distances are equal, we can write

3(x+y)= 3.6(x-y)

3x+3y = 3.6x-3.6y

6.6y = 0,6x

x=11y: y=x/11

c) Water current has speed as 1/11 times of that of boat

In percent this equals 100/11 = 9.09%

a jar contains 36 marbles. it has 20 red, 12 black, and 4 green marbles. two marbles are drawn; the first is not returned before
Sedaia [141]
The probability of drawing red on the first draw is 20/36. Having drawn red on the first draw, the probability of drawing red on the second draw is 19/35. The probability that both marbles are red is therefore;
P(both\ red)=\frac{20\times19}{36\times35}=0.302

How to graph f(x)=(x-2)^2+5
tatyana61 [14]

That's a quadratic, a nice parabola in vertex form.


The parabola has a positive x^2 term, so it's a CUP, concave up positive. It will have a minimum at the vertex, which is (2,5). Plot that point.


Now we need a couple of guide points to draw the usual parabola going up from both sides of its vertex. We try x=0 giving (0,9) and see that x=4 also gives 9, (4,9). Plot the parabola through those two points and the vertex and you're done.
