Answer:

D. sin m∠C = 2 square root of 5 all over 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle ABC is a right angled triangle. The angle ∠C is where we are asked to find. The side AB measures 6 , AC measures 3 and the side BC measures 3√5.

The longest side of a right angle triangle is the hypotenuse, that means the side with length 3√5 is the hypotenuse.

Therefore side BC is the hypotenuse side and we are asked to find the angle C. AB is the opposite side while AC is the adjacent side.

Using

sin C = opposite/hypotenuse = 6/3√5 = 2/√5 = 2√5/5

cos C = adjacent/hypotenuse = 3/3√5 = 1/√5

Y = (x)^(1/9)*Find f(x) when x=(1/2)Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.

Verizon [17]

We are given a function f ( x ) defined as follows:

$y=f(x)=x^{\frac{1}{9}}$

We are to determine the value of f ( x ) when,

$\times\text{ = }\frac{1}{2}$

In such cases, we plug in/substitue the given value of x into the expressed function f ( x ) as follows:

$y\text{ = f ( }\frac{1}{2}\text{ ) = (}\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{9}}$

We will apply the power on both numerator and denominator as follows:

$f(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1^{\frac{1}{9}}}{2^{\frac{1}{9}}}\text{ = }\frac{1}{2^{\frac{1}{9}}}$

Now we evaluate ( 2 ) raised to the power of ( 1 / 9 ).

$f\text{ ( }\frac{1}{2}\text{ ) = }\frac{1}{1.08005}$

Next apply the division operation as follows:

$f\text{ ( }\frac{1}{2})\text{ = }0.92587$

Once, we have evaluated the answer in decimal form ( 5 decimal places ). We will round off the answer to nearest thousandths.

Rounding off to nearest thousandth means we consider the thousandth decimal place ( 3rd ). Then we have the choice of either truncating the decimal places ( 4th and onwards ). The truncation only occurs when (4th decimal place) is < 5.

However, since the (4th decimal place) = 8 > 5. Then we add ( 1 ) to the 3rd decimal place and truncate the rest of the decimal places i.e ( 4th and onwards ).

The answer to f ( 1 / 2 ) to the nearest thousandth would be:

$\textcolor{#FF7968}{f}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ ( }}\textcolor{#FF7968}{\frac{1}{2})}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = 0.926}}$

I need it by morning and I need the work HELP!!!

valentina_108 [34]

1. 5/6 = 10/12

3/4 = 6/8

2. 2/9 = 4/18

4/12 = 1/3

3. 6/7 = 12/14

1/2 = 2/4

4. 5/9 = 10/18

3/18 = 1/6

5. 1/6 = 2/12

1/9 = 2/18

6. 3/8 = 6/12

5/6 = 10/12

Write the equation of a parabola having the vertex (1, −2) and containing the point (3, 6) in vertex form. Then, rewrite the equ

In-s [12.5K]

PART A

The equation of the parabola in vertex form is given by the formula,

$y - k = a {(x - h)}^{2}$

where

$(h,k)=(1,-2)$

is the vertex of the parabola.

We substitute these values to obtain,

$y + 2 = a {(x - 1)}^{2}$

The point, (3,6) lies on the parabola.

It must therefore satisfy its equation.

$6 + 2 = a {(3 - 1)}^{2}$

$8= a {(2)}^{2}$

$8=4a$

$a = 2$
Hence the equation of the parabola in vertex form is

$y + 2 = 2 {(x - 1)}^{2}$

PART B

To obtain the equation of the parabola in standard form, we expand the vertex form of the equation.

$y + 2 = 2{(x - 1)}^{2}$

This implies that

$y + 2 = 2(x - 1)(x - 1)$

We expand to obtain,

$y + 2 = 2( {x}^{2} - 2x + 1)$

This will give us,

$y + 2 = 2 {x}^{2} - 4x + 2$

$y = {x}^{2} - 4x$

This equation is now in the form,

$y = a {x}^{2} + bx + c$
where

$a=1,b=-4,c=0$

This is the standard form
