Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

use sin formula

$\frac{a}{sin \alpha } =\frac{b}{sin \beta } =\frac{c}{sin \gamma} \\\frac{10}{sin~40} =\frac{12}{sin ~\beta } \\sin~\beta =\frac{12}{10} \times sin~40\\ \beta=sin^{-1}(1.2 sin ~40)\approx 50.5 ^\circ\\\gamma=180-(40+50.5)=89.5^\circ\\\frac{c}{sin~89.5}=\frac{10}{sin~40} \\c=\frac{sin~89.5}{sin ~40} \times 10 \approx 15.6\\D$

W(x) = 5^2x + 1; Find w(0)

hammer [34]

Answer:

w(0) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If w(0) is true, replace all x in the equation with 0 and then solve

w(0) = 5^2(0) + 1

w(0) = 25(0) + 1

w(0) = 0+1

w(0) = 1

Grant is a member of a book club. He pays a $10 yearly membership fee and can purchase books through the club for $2.75 each. Hi

ryzh [129]

Answer: A, C, and E

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the function given:

C(b) = 2.75b + 10

Where:

Independent variable: b (number of books)
Input = b
Output = C = annual cost

Dependent variable = C (depends on b, the independent variable)

So:

A. The number of books purchased is the independent variable. TRUE

B. The input is the yearly cost. (FALSE, the input is the number of books )

C. The total yearly cost depends on the number of books purchased. TRUE

D. The number of books purchased is determined by the yearly cost. FALSE , the yearly cost is determined by the number

of books.

E. The output is the yearly cost.TRUE
