UW= 2 and UX=y. Write an expression for WX

Eddi Din [679]

Divide each term by U and simplify. X=y/U and W=2/U. Next, solve the equation for y. Simplify the left side then cancel the common factor of U. 1/1*y/1=y

W=2/U. Multiply 1/1*y/1=y/1 so, y/1=y and W=2/U. Next, divide y/y to get 1 now y=y, still W=2/U. Now, move all terms containing y to the left side. Since, Y contains the variable to solve for, move it to the left side of the equation by subtracting y from both sides. Now, y-y=0 still W=2/U. Next, subtract y from y to get zero and still W=2/U. Subtract y from y to get zero or 0=0 and W=2/U is your expression since 0=0.

Next: UW=m and WX=y+14 write expression for UX

First, divide each term by W and simplify. U=m/W, WX=y+14. Next, solve the equation for Y. Move y from the right side of the equation to the left side. Still, U=m/W and y=-14+WX. We must reorder -14 and WX. U=m/w and y=WX-14.
Replace the variable U with m/W in the expression to (m/W)X. Next, simplify (m/W)X. Now, write X and a fraction with denominator 1. Looks like this
fractions are side by side m/W X/1 . Multiply, m/W and X/1 to get mX/W.
mX/W is your final expression for UW=m and WX=y+14 expression for UX.

In AFGH, GH = 14, HF = 13, and FG = 15. Which list has the angles of AFGH

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The answer is the second one

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is the second one because remember when given a side length the letter that is not in the length is equal to the angle

The bigger the side length the bigger the angle

ex. FG is the longest side length

FG does not contain the letter H

meaning that the side corresponds with angle H

therefore angle H is the largest angle

ex. HF is the smallest side length and does not contain letter G

therefore angle G is the smallest side length

which concludes that the order of the angles from least to greatest is

G, F, H

Hope this helps!

Find an exact value.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \cos\left(-\frac{7\,\pi}{12}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{6}}{4}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the angle $\displaystyle \left(-\frac{7\, \pi}{12}\right)$ to degrees:

$\displaystyle \left(-\frac{7\, \pi}{12}\right) = \left(-\frac{7\, \pi}{12}\right) \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = -105^\circ$ .

Note, that $\left(-105^\circ\right)$ is the sum of two common angles: $\left(-45^\circ\right)$ and $\left(-60^\circ\right)$ .

$\displaystyle \cos\left(-45^\circ\right) = \cos\left(45^\circ\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ .
$\displaystyle \cos\left(-60^\circ\right) = \cos\left(60^\circ\right) = \frac{1}{2}$ .

$\displaystyle \sin\left(-45^\circ\right) = -\sin\left(45^\circ\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ .
$\displaystyle \sin\left(-60^\circ\right) = -\sin\left(60^\circ\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ .

By the sum-angle identity of cosine:

$\cos(A + B) = \cos(A)\cdot \cos(B) - \sin(A) \cdot \sin(B)$ .

Apply the sum formula for cosine to find the exact value of $\cos\left(-105^\circ \right)$ .

$\begin{aligned}\cos\left(-105^\circ \right) &= \cos\left(\left(-45^\circ\right) + \left(-60^\circ\right)\right) \\ &= \cos\left(-45^\circ\right) \cdot \cos\left(-60^\circ\right)\right) - \sin\left(-45^\circ\right) \cdot \sin\left(-60^\circ\right)\right) \\ &= \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} - \left(-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)\times \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{6}}{4}\end{aligned}$ .

$\displaystyle \left(-\frac{7\, \pi}{12}\right) = \left(-\frac{7\, \pi}{12}\right) \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = -105^\circ$ . In other words, $\displaystyle \left(-\frac{7\, \pi}{12}\right)$ and $\left(-105^\circ\right)$ correspond to the same angle. Therefore, the cosine of $\displaystyle \left(-\frac{7\, \pi}{12}\right)\!$ would be equal to the cosine of $\left(-105^\circ\right)\!$ .

$\displaystyle \cos\left(-\frac{7\,\pi}{12}\right) = \cos\left(-105^\circ\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{6}}{4}$ .
