Answer: "Three times the sum of 8 and 4": $3\times (8+4)$

Explanation:

In the question we have asked that what will be the mathematical expression for the " three times the sum of 8 and 4".

We have asked with 'Three times the sum of 8 and 4' which means that adding the sum of number '8' and number '4' by three times.

We can write 'Three times the sum' mathematically as '3 $\times (\text{sum of numbers})$ '.

We can write 'sum of 8 and 4' mathematically as ' $8+4$

So the final expression comes out to be: $3\times(8+4)$

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-2,-3) and is perpenicular to 2X -3Y= 6

Rufina [12.5K]

You should first of all rewrite the equation in slope intercept form. You should get y=2/3x-2. The perpendicular slope is the opposite reciprocal, in this case -3/2. You will use this slope and the point to write your equation in point slope form and then clean this up to get it into slope intercept form. You should get y=-3/2x-6

(-2/3, sqrt5/3) is a point on a unit circle. Find the cosine, cosecant, and sine of the angle.

Nana76 [90]

Look at the picture.

$\csc\theta=\dfrac{1}{\sin\theta}=\dfrac{1}{\frac{y}{r}}=\dfrac{r}{y}$

We have the right triangle x, y and r. From the Pythagorean theorem we have:

$r^2=x^2+y^2\to r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

We have the point

$\left(-\dfrac{2}{3};\ \dfrac{\sqrt5}{3}\right)$

Substitute:

$r=\sqrt{\left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\sqrt5}{3}\right)^2}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{9}+\dfrac{5}{9}}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{9}}\\\\r=1$

$\csc\theta=\dfrac{1}{\frac{\sqrt5}{3}}=\dfrac{3}{\sqrt5}=\dfrac{3\cdot\sqrt5}{\sqrt5\cdot\sqrt5}=\boxed{\dfrac{3\sqrt5}{5}}$

Mel has to put the greatest number of

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Mel should use the least common multiple to solve the problem

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Mel has to put the greatest number of bolts and nuts in each box so each box has the same number of bolts and the same number of nuts.

We have to find that should Mel use the greatest common factor or the least common multiple to solve the problem?

He should use least common multiple.

Let us see an example, suppose 12 bolts and nuts are to be fit in 6 boxes.

Then, if we took H.C.F of 12 and 6, it is 6, which means 6 bolts and nuts in each box, but, after filling 2 boxes with 6 bolts and nuts, there will be nothing left, which is wrong as remaining boxes are empty.

So the remaining method to choose is L.C.M.

Hence, he should use L.C.M method.
