The tangent represents the sides making up the right angle in a right angle triangle. To find out the answer to what you have asked, the simplest way is to assume that you are talking about a right angle triangle.

Step One

Find the hypotenuse. Use a variation of the Pythagorean Theorem.

opposite^2 + adjacent^2 = hypotenuse^2

5^2 + 12^2 = x^2

25 + 144 = x^2

x^2 = 169

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(169)

x = 13

Step Two

Find the sine.

When the tangent is given, the opposite in this case is 5.

That's because the opposite is always the numerator of a tangent.

Sin(theta) = 5/13 Answer

Damien , Jake , and Makayla shared a bowl of grapes . Damien ate x grapes . Jake ate 1 more than twice the number of grapes that
vivado [14]

Answer:

There were (4x + 2) grapes in the bowl

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the total number of grapes in the bowl.

We have 3 people sharing the total

Damien are x grapes

Jake ate 1 more than twice what Damien and that is (1 + 2x) grapes

Makayla ate 5 fewer grapes than Damien: So what Makayla ate is (x-5) grapes

And now, we have 6 grapes left.

To find the total number of grapes in the bowl, we need to add up all what they ate plus what is left.

Mathematically, that would be;

x + 1 + 2x + x -5 + 6

= 4x + 2

Pete has the option of borrowing $380 for one week at an APR of 600% or borrowing the $380 for one week with a fee of $45. Which
GarryVolchara [31]
APR = annual percentage rate.

Since Pete is borrowing the money for one week, the APR must be divided into a daily interest rate before we can figure out how much he'll pay for the loan.

There are 365 days in a year. Divide the APR by 365 to find the daily interest rate.

\frac{600}{365} = 1.643

The daily interest rate of the loan will be 1.643%.

The following equation is used to find the total interest payment:

A = P(1+ \frac{r}{365})^{t} - P

A represents the total amount paid in interest. P represents the amount borrowed for the loan. r represents the daily interest rate. t represents the amount of days the loan will last.

Plug in your values into the equation.

P = 380, r = 1.643, t = 7

380(1+ \frac{1.643}{365})^{7} - 380 = 12.136

Rounded to the nearest hundredths value, the total interest paid will be $12.14.

Compare the total amounts paid for both loans.

$12.14 < $45

The better deal is the loan with the 600% APR.
