Answer:

Rate=9.05%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P represent the Principal ,t the time = 8 years and r be the rate of interest.

It is given money doubles in 8 years so A=2P.

The compound interest is given by the formula :

$A= P(1+r^{)t}$

Substituting the values we have:

$2P=P( 1+r^){8}$

Dividing both sides by P :

$2=(1+r)^{8}$

$2^{\frac{1}{8} } =1+r$

1.0905-1=r

r=0.09050

r=9.05%

Order the following numbers from least to greatest. √11, -0.4, (-4/3), 0.8, √2

agasfer [191]

Answer:

(-4/3), 0.4, 0.8, √2, √11

Step-by-step explanation:

√11=3.316624790355399849114932736670686683927088545589353597058

0.4

(-4/3) = -1.33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

0.8

√2=1.414213562373095048801688724209698078569671875376948073176

Thus :

Cosθ=−2√3 , where π≤θ≤3π2 .

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

$sin(\theta + \beta) = -\frac{\sqrt{7}}{5}-4\frac{\sqrt{2}}{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the $sin(\theta)$

we know that

Applying the trigonometric identity

$sin^2(\theta)+ cos^2(\theta)=1$

we have

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}$

substitute

$sin^2(\theta)+ (-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3})^2=1$

$sin^2(\theta)+ \frac{2}{9}=1$

$sin^2(\theta)=1- \frac{2}{9}$

$sin^2(\theta)= \frac{7}{9}$

$sin(\theta)=\pm\frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}$

Remember that

π≤θ≤3π/2

so

Angle θ belong to the III Quadrant

That means ----> The sin(θ) is negative

$sin(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}$

step 2

Find the sec(β)

Applying the trigonometric identity

$tan^2(\beta)+1= sec^2(\beta)$

we have

$tan(\beta)=\frac{4}{3}$

substitute

$(\frac{4}{3})^2+1= sec^2(\beta)$

$\frac{16}{9}+1= sec^2(\beta)$

$sec^2(\beta)=\frac{25}{9}$

$sec(\beta)=\pm\frac{5}{3}$

we know

0≤β≤π/2 ----> II Quadrant

so

sec(β), sin(β) and cos(β) are positive

$sec(\beta)=\frac{5}{3}$

Remember that

$sec(\beta)=\frac{1}{cos(\beta)}$

therefore

$cos(\beta)=\frac{3}{5}$

step 3

Find the sin(β)

we know that

$tan(\beta)=\frac{sin(\beta)}{cos(\beta)}$

we have

$tan(\beta)=\frac{4}{3}$

$cos(\beta)=\frac{3}{5}$

substitute

$(4/3)=\frac{sin(\beta)}{(3/5)}$

therefore

$sin(\beta)=\frac{4}{5}$

step 4

Find sin(θ+β)

we know that

$sin(A + B) = sin A cos B + cos A sin B$

so

In this problem

$sin(\theta + \beta) = sin(\theta)cos(\beta)+ cos(\theta)sin (\beta)$

we have

$sin(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}$

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}$

$sin(\beta)=\frac{4}{5}$

$cos(\beta)=\frac{3}{5}$

substitute the given values in the formula

$sin(\theta + \beta) = (-\frac{\sqrt{7}}{3})(\frac{3}{5})+ (-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3})(\frac{4}{5})$

$sin(\theta + \beta) = (-3\frac{\sqrt{7}}{15})+ (-4\frac{\sqrt{2}}{15})$

$sin(\theta + \beta) = -\frac{\sqrt{7}}{5}-4\frac{\sqrt{2}}{15}$
