Answer: Each hard cover book is worth $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Hard cover is worth $1.50, so the softcover is worth 0.50, 3x1.5 is 4.5, 4x0.50 is 2, 2+4.5=6.50

A triangle has an angle that measures 10°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:14. What

ivann1987 [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Need to FinD :</h3>

We have to find the measures of other two angles of triangle.

$\red{\frak{Given}} \begin{cases} & \sf{The\ measure\ of\ one\ angle\ of\ traingle\ is\ {\pmb{\sf{10^{\circ}}}}.} \\ & \sf{The\ other\ two\ angles\ are\ in\ the\ ratio\ of\ {\pmb{\sf{3\ :\ 14}}}.} \end{cases}$

We know that,

The other two angles of triangle are in the ratio of 3 : 14. So, let us consider the other two angles of the triangle be 3x and 14x.

Angle sum property,

The angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of triangle is 180°. By using this property, we'll find the other two angles of the triangle.

$\rule{200}{3}$

$\sf \dashrightarrow {10^{\circ}\ +\ 3x\ +\ 14x\ =\ 180^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {10^{\circ}\ +\ 17x\ =\ 180^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {17x\ =\ 180^{\circ}\ -\ 10^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {17x\ =\ 170^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {x\ =\ \dfrac{\cancel{170^{\circ}}}{\cancel{17}}} \\ \\ \\ \dashrightarrow {\underbrace{\boxed{\pink{\frak{x\ =\ 10^{\circ}.}}}}_{\sf \blue {\tiny{Value\ of\ x}}}}$

∴ Hence, the value of x is 10°. Now, let us find out the other two angles of the triangle.

$\rule{200}{3}$

Second AnglE :

3x
3 × 10
30°

∴ Hence, the measure of the second angle of triangle is 30°. Now, let us find out the third angle of triangle.

$\rule{200}{3}$

Third AnglE :

14x
14 × 10
140°

∴ Hence, the measure of the third angle of the triangle is 140°.

Pls help trig question!!

$4\sin^2 x - 3 = 3 \sin x\\\\\implies 4\sin^2 x -3 \sin x -3 =0\\\\\implies 4u^2 -3u -3 =0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;[\text{Set} ~ \sin x = u]\\\\\implies u = \dfrac{-(-3) \pm \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4\cdot 4 \cdot (-3)}}{2(4)}~~~~~~;[\text{Apply quadratic formula}]\\\\\\\implies u = \dfrac{3\pm\sqrt{57}}8\\\\\implies \sin x = \dfrac{3\pm\sqrt{57}}8~~~~~~;[\text{Substitute back}~ u = \sin x]\\\\\text{Now,}\\\\\sin x = \dfrac{3+\sqrt{57}}8\\\\\text{No solution for}~ x\in \mathbb{R} ~\text{Since}~ -1\leq \sin x \leq 1\\$

$\sin x = \dfrac{3 - \sqrt{57}}8\\\\\implies x = n\pi + (-1)^n \sin^{-1} \left(\dfrac{3-\sqrt{57}}8\right)\\\\\\\text{ When n = 1,2 and}~ [0,2\pi]},\\\\\\x= \pi - \sin^{-1} \left(\dfrac{3-\sqrt{57}}8 \right)~ \text{and} ~x = 2\pi + \sin^{-1} \left(\dfrac{3-\sqrt{57}}8 \right)\\\\\text{In decimal,}\\\\x= 3.75~~~~ \text{and}~~~ x =5.68$

I'm not 100% sure but I think it's 10:10 because of the Spoons - 10:30.
