Draw a right triangle.

tan(theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

tan(theta) = \frac{10}{14}

Arctangent (tan^-1) can be used to find theta.

tan^{-1}(\frac{10}{14})=theta

theta\ is\ approx\ \boxed{36\ degrees}

In-s [12.5K]

The width of a book is 1.5 inches.

The total width of 79 books is 1.5×79

= 118.5 inches.

The cost of a 34.5 inch wide shelf is $12.95

Therefore, the cost of a 118.5 inch wide shelf will be:

(Let the cost of the 118.5 inch wide shelf be x)

\frac{34.5}{12.95}  =  \frac{118.5}{x}  \\ cross \: multipy \\ 34.5x = 118.5 \times 12.95 \\ x =  \frac{118.5 \times 12.95}{34.5}  \\ x = 44.48

x= $44.48

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

k(x) = 6x

Step-by-step explanation:

A function shows the relationship between two or more variables. It shows the relationship between an independent and a dependent variable.

Given that the amount of water being poured into the tube is given by f(x) = 12x, where x is in minutes and the amount of water draining out of the tub is given by the function g( x )=6x. The amount of water remaining in the tube after x minutes is gotten by finding the difference between the amount of water entering the tube and the amount leaving the tube after x minutes. If k is the function representing the amount of water in the tube after x minutes, it is given by:

k(x) = f(x) - g(x)

k(x) = 12x - 6x

k(x) = 6x
