Find C.<br> Round to the nearest tenth

andre [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcosC

cosC= (a^2+b^2-c^2)/(2ab)

C=arccos[(a^2+b^2-c^2)/(2ab)]

C=arccos(90^2+55^2-50^2)/(2(90)55)

C=arccos(8625)/(9900)

C=29.4 degrees

1. Find the vertex of the following: y = (x - 4)(x - 10) *

horsena [70]

Answer:

1. (7,-9)

2. (4,0) and (10,0)

3. (3,0) and (-3,0)

4. (0,-9)

5. (-1,-32)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the vertex use the formula

$\frac{-b}{2a}$

First make the equation into a quadratic equation.

$(x-4)(x-10)\\x^{2} -10x-4x+40\\x^{2} -14x+40$

Now it is in the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

Now we can substitute the values

$\frac{-(-14)}{2(1)} \\\frac{14}{2} \\7$

Now we have 7 as our x value for the vertex we can substitute for y,

$x^{2} -14x+40=y\\(7)^{2} -14(7)+40=y\\49-98+4=y\\y=-9$

So the vertex for 1 is (7,-9)

To find the intercepts for 2 & 3, they basically already give it to you. You just need to find a value for x for x-4 that will equal it to 0 and another for x for x-10 that will equal it to 0.

$x-4=0\\x=4\\\\x-10=0\\x=10$

4 is slightly different but start the same,

$(x-3)(x+3)\\x^{2}+3x-3x-9\\x^{2}-9$

Here, c (9) just shows the graph move down 9, so the y intercept = 9.

5 is the same process as 1,

$2(x-3)(x+5)\\2(x^{2}+5x-3x-15)\\2(x^{2}+2x-15)\\2x^{2}+4x-30$

Vertex,

$\frac{-(4)}{2(2)} \\\frac{-4}{4} \\-1$

Substitute,

$2x^{2}+4x-30\\2(-1)^{2}+4(-1)-30\\2-4-30\\-32$

So the vertex is (-1,-32)

What is the solution to the following system?

leva [86]

Answer:

(4,3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this via matrices, so the equations given can be written in matrix form as:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}3&2&1&20\\1&-4&-1&-10\\2&1&2&15\end{array}\right]$

Now I will shift rows to make my pivot point (top left) a 1 and so:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\2&1&2&15\\3&2&1&20\end{array}\right]$

Next I will come up with algorithms that can cancel out numbers where R1 means row 1, R2 means row 2 and R3 means row three therefore,

-2R1+R2=R2 , -3R1+R3=R3

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\0&9&4&35\\0&14&4&50\end{array}\right]$

$\frac{R_2}{9}=R_2$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&14&4&50\end{array}\right]$

4R2+R1=R1 , -14R2+R3=R3

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&\frac{7}{9}&\frac{50}{9}\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&0&-\frac{20}{9}&-\frac{40}{9}\end{array}\right]$

$-\frac{9}{20}R_3=R_3$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&\frac{7}{9}&\frac{50}{9}\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&0&1&2\end{array}\right]$

$-\frac{4}{9}R_3+R_2=R2$ , $-\frac{7}{9}R_3+R_1=R_1$

$\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&0&4\\0&1&0&3\\0&0&1&2\end{array}\right]$

Therefore the solution to the system of equations are (x,y,z) = (4,3,2)

Note: If answer choices are given, plug them in and see if you get what is "equal to". Meaning plug in 4 for x, 3 for y and 2 for z in the first equation and you should get 20, second equation -10 and third 15.
