Find, to four significant digits, the distance between the graphs of 2x-3y+4=0 and 2x-3y+15=0.

1 answer:

4 0

In analytical geometry, we can find the linear distance between two parallel lines by determining the coefficients of the variables and the constants. The general equation for a linear equation is: Ax + By = C.

Line 1: 2x - 3y = -4
Line 2: 2x - 3y = -15

In this case, A=2 and B=-3. The constants are C₁ = -4 and C₂ = -15. The distance follows this formula:

d = |C₁ - C₂|/(√(A²+B²)
d = |⁻4 - ⁻15|/(√(2²+⁻3²)
d = 3.051 units

Solve the triangle. Round your answers to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

B. m∠B = 118°, a = 17, c = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer choices all agree on the values of ∠B and c, so we only need to compute the value of side a.

We can verify angle B is ...

∠B = 180° -30° -32° = 118°

By the law of sines, ...

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B)

Multiplying by sin(A), we get ...

a = b·sin(A)/sin(B) = 30·sin(30°)/sin(118°) ≈ 16.98855

a ≈ 17.0 . . . units . . . . . matches choice B

If you like, you can also verify side c:

c = b·sin(C)/sin(B) = 30·sin(32°)/sin(118°) ≈ 18.00512

c ≈ 18.0 . . . units

Solve each equation and leave the answer in terms of “i”

almond37 [142]

17)
x² + 8 = -8
x² = -8 - 8
x² = 16
x = ±√-16
x = ±√16i
x = ±4i

18)
x² + 5 = -3
x² = -3 - 5
x² = -8
x = ±√-8
x = ±√8i
x = ±2√2i

19)
x² + 3 = 0
x² = -3
x = ±√-3
x = ±√3i

hope this helps, God bless!

What is the best estimate for the length of a bike

castortr0y [4]

The average length of a bike (including the length of both wheels) is about 68 inches.For finding the true answer we must follow the following convertion rule: 1 inch is equivalent to 0.02 yard, so 68 inches equal to 1.88 yards. Consequently, the value nearest 1.88 yards is 1.5 yards, so the answer is the choice A: 1.5 yards.
