As soon as I read this, the words "law of cosines" popped
into my head. I don't have a good intuitive feeling for the
law of cosines, but I went and looked it up (you probably
could have done that), and I found that it's exactly what
you need for this problem.
The "law of cosines" relates the lengths of the sides of any
triangle to the cosine of one of its angles ... just what we need,
since we know all the sides, and we want to find one of the angles.
To find angle-B, the law of cosines says
b² = a² + c² - 2 a c cosine(B)
B = angle-B
b = the side opposite angle-B = 1.4
a, c = the other 2 sides = 1 and 1.9
(1.4)² = (1)² + (1.9)² - (2 x 1 x 1.9) cos(B)
1.96 = (1) + (3.61) - (3.8) cos(B)
Add 3.8 cos(B) from each side:
1.96 + 3.8 cos(B) = 4.61
Subtract 1.96 from each side:
3.8 cos(B) = 2.65
Divide each side by 3.8 :
cos(B) = 0.69737 (rounded)
Whipping out the
trusty calculator:
B = the angle whose cosine is 0.69737
= 45.784° .
Now, for the first time, I'll take a deep breath, then hold it
while I look back at the question and see whether this is
anywhere near one of the choices ...
By gosh ! Choice 'B' is 45.8° ! yay !
I'll bet that's it !
Step-by-step explanation:
a geometric sequence means that every term is created by multiplying the previous term by a certain constant factor. this factor is called the "common ratio".
so,
6×r = 18
r = 18/6 = 3
and a quick check tells us this works also for the next terms (18×3 = 54, 54×3 = 162), so it is indeed a geometric sequence with common ratio 3.
a0 = 6
a1 = a0 × 3 = 6×3 = 18
a2 = a1 × 3 = a0 × 3×3 = 6×3² = 54
an = a0 × 3^n = 6 × 3^n
so,
f(x) = 6×3^x, x is integer, x >=0
Answer:
Equations 1 & 3 are correct.
Explanation:
Equation 2's actual answer is -8, and Equation 4's actual answer is positive 7.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is A. if you notice the y-intercept, it its at -5
A is the only answer choice that gives -5 as the y-intercept
another way to make sure that A is the right answer is to calculate the slope
when you increase 3 units UP (y), you increase 5 units to the RIGHT (x)
since slope is y/x, it should be 3/5 which is also in A
another way to check A is to plug in points
hope this helps!
