\bf (\stackrel{\stackrel{x}{adjacent}}{7}~~,~~\stackrel{\stackrel{y}{opposite}}{6})\impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{hypotenuse}}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=hypotenuse\\
a=adjacent\\
b=opposite\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
c=\sqrt{7^2+6^2}\implies c=\sqrt{85}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{hypotenuse}{adjacent}\qquad \qquad sec(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{85}}{7}

Find the values of x and y that make k || j and
MArishka [77]

Answer:

  • x = 80°
  • y = 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior is a parallelogram when adjacent angles are supplementary. This requires ...

  (x -30)° + (x +50)° = 180°

  2x + 20 = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, divide by °

  2x = 160 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 20

  x = 80 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Then the angle x+50 is ...

  (x +50)° = (80 +50)° = 130°

This is also the measure of the angle marked y.

For the lines to be parallel, x = 80, y = 130°.

(b) Find all 3-tuples (a,b,c) satisfying
jolli1 [7]

We have a three unknown, 4 equation homogeneous system.  These always have at least (0,0,0) as a solution.  Let's write the equations, one column at a time.

1a + 0b + 0c = 0

-1a + 1b +0c = 0

0a - 1b + c = 0

0a + 0b + -1 c = 0

We could do row reduction but these are easy enough not to bother.

Equation 1 says

a = 0

Equation 4 says

c = 0

Substituting in the two remaining,

-1(0) + 1b + 0c = 0

b = 0

0(0) - 1b + 0 = 0

b = 0

The only 3-tuple satisfying the vector equation is (a,b,c)=(0,0,0)

A ham sandwich consists of one slice of ham (9 grams) and two slices of bread (25 grams each). you have 1 kg of ham and 1.2 kg o
jok3333 [9.3K]
The rule of thumb for this kind of problem is that you must first determine the limiting variable in your situation. We know that for a single sandwich, 50 grams bread greatly exceeds the 9 grams of ham requirement. We also know that there will be a greater supply of ham since 1 kg is relatively close in amount to 1.2 kg. This means that we only need to look at the bread for calculation purposes. We can get the total number of sandwiches to be 1200 / 50 = 24 sandwiches.

tangare [24]
Speed 45m/s
Distance = speed × time
d = 45 × t
d= 45t
So, this is your equation for distance travelled in h time.
