Find the exact value of sec 120°.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leto [7]4 years ago
4 0

For this case we have that by definition:

Sec (a) = \frac {1} {cos (a)}

Then, we can rewrite the expression as:

Sec (120) = \frac {1} {cos (120)}

cos (120) = cos (180-60) = - cos (60) = - \frac {1} {2}

So:

Sec (120) = \frac {1} {- \frac {1} {2}}\\Sec (120) = - 2

Answer:

-2

what is the value of the expression? 4(6/10−1/5)+0.4 enter your answer, in simplest form, in the box.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer: 2.0

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression : 4(\dfrac{6}{10}-\dfrac{1}{5})+0.4

To solve the given expression , we need to follow BODMAS (Bracket→ Of Divide→ Multiplication →Add →Subtract).

According to BODMAS , first we simplified the expression present inside the brackets .

4(\dfrac{6-2(1)}{10})+0.4  [10= LCM[10,5]]

=4(\dfrac{6-2}{10})+0.4

=4(\dfrac{4}{10})+0.4

=(\dfrac{4\times4}{10})+0.4   [Multiply]

=(\dfrac{16}{10})+0.4   [Simplify]

=1.6+0.4=2.0 [Add]

Hence, the value of the expression in the simplified form = 2.0

Finish the table using<br> the equation.<br><br><br> Anyone help please ! ?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

y = 0.5,  1,  1.5,  2

Step-by-step explanation:

x is twice as much as y, so when you multiply the input for y by 2, it should get the value of x. Example: if y is 1, then x is 2, because 1*2 = 2

hope this helped!

A pharmacy claims that the average medication costs $32 but it could differ as much as $8. Write and solve an absolute value ine
gogolik [260]
 <span>It looks like you're supposed to pick a combination of two answers: 
an absolute-value inequality, and 
a sentence describing the meaning of that inequality. 

We've got two choices for each, and therefore four possible combinations of choices. 

First, let's tackle the sentence description. We're told that 
"it [the cost] could differ [from the average of $32] as much as $8." 
That sets a maximum value for the difference; it's UP TO $8. 
If the cost is less than average, it could be as little as 
$32 - $8 = $24 
and if the cost is more than average, it could be as much as 
$32 + $8 = $40. 
So the medication costs range from $24 to $40, and we want an answer that states that. 

Now for the inequalities: 
|x - 32| describes the SIZE of the difference. Using the absolute-value function means we don't distinguish between 
x - 32 
and 
32 - x 
as far as our interests are concerned; we eliminate the sign from the subtraction and just look at the size of the difference. 

But in the case we're looking at, we've got a MAXIMUM value for the difference; it can't be more than 8. The inequality 
|x - 32| ≥ 8 
says the difference is 8 or MORE, so we don't want that. Instead, we want 
|x - 32| ≤ 8 
which says the difference is anywhere from 0 to 8. 

Combining these conclusions, we see we're looking for this answer: 
|x - 32| ≤ 8; The medication costs range from $24 to $40 
which is the third one listed.</span>

If sin(x)=0.3090 , what is the approximate value of csc(x)?
vitfil [10]
\sin x=0.3090\approx\dfrac13

\csc x=\dfrac1{\sin x}\implies\csc x\approx 3

which makes 3.2362 likely the best choice.
