2x+5y=12

1 answer:

8 0

Y = -3x - 1......so we sub in -3x - 1 in for y in the other equation

2x + 5y = 12
2x + 5(-3x - 1) = 12....now distribute the 5 through the parenthesis
2x - 15x - 5 = 12...add 5 to both sides
2x - 15x = 12 + 5..combine like terms
-13x = 17...divide both sides by -13
x = -17/13
now sub in -17/13 for x in the other equation
y = -3x - 1
y = -3(-17/13) - 1
y = 51/13 - 1
y = 51/13 - 13/13
y = 38/13

so the solution is (-17/13, 38/13)

En un triángulo rectángulo A es un ángulo agudo y Sen A = 4/5 ¿Cuál será el valor de Tan A?

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \tan A=\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Funciones Trigonométricas</u>

La identidad principal en trigonometría es:

$sen^2A+cos^2A=1$

Si sabemos que A es un ángulo agudo (que mide menos de 90°), su seno y coseno son positivos.

Dado que Sen A = 4/5, calculamos el coseno:

$cos^2A=1-sen^2A$

Sustituyendo:

$\displaystyle cos^2A=1-\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^2$

$\displaystyle cos^2A=1-\frac{16}{25}$

$\displaystyle cos^2A=\frac{25-16}{25}$

$\displaystyle cos^2A=\frac{9}{25}$

Tomando raíz cuadrada:

$\displaystyle cos\ A=\sqrt{\frac{9}{25}}=\frac{3}{5}$

La tangente se define como:

$\displaystyle \tan A=\frac{sen\ A}{cos\ A}$

Substituyendo:

$\displaystyle \tan A=\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{3}{5}}$

$\displaystyle \tan A=\frac{4}{3}$

18+m/4=24 solve for m

Gemiola [76]

18 + m/4 = 24

Subtract 18 from each side:

m/4 = 6

Multiply each side by 4 :

<em>m = 24 </em>

some numbers added to -11 is 37.divide this number by -12.then multiply by -8.what is the final number?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Since some number added to -11 is 37, we must do 37- (-11), which is 48. Then we check our work and find that 48+-11 is indeed 37. Now we divide 48 by -12, which is -4, multiply by -8 and get a final answer of 32.
