We know that
Applying the law of cosines
c²=a²+b²-2*a*b*cos
C------> cos C=[a²+b²-c²]/[2*a*b]
in this problem
a=7.6 in
b=8.6 in
c=7.4 in
C=angle V
cos C=[7.6²+8.6²-7.4²]/[2*7.6*8.6]----> 0.5887
C=arc cos (0.5887)--------> C=53.93°-------> C=53.9°
the answer is
angle V is 53.9°
-2.5 and 4
You can get this by factoring to the equation (2x + 5)(x - 4)

Answer:
-3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the argument where the variable is and do the arithmetic.
f(-1/4) = 2(-1/4) -3 = -1/2 -3
f(-1/4) = -(3 1/2)
The price of the sweater was reduced by 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Cost before reduction was $20. The cost after reduction was 12$. Cost reduced= cost before reduction - cost after reduction
Cost reduced= $20 - $12 = $8
Step 2; We must find how much of the cost was reduced from the initial cost i.e. how much $8 is to $20. To do this we must convert it into a percentage. We divide the $8 with the $20 to get a value. This value must be multiplied with a 100 to be converted into a percentage.
Cost by which sweater was reduced=
* 100 = 0.4 * 100 = 40
So the price of the sweater was reduced from $20 to $8 which equates to a reduction in 40%.
