That would depend...

-4 / -2 = 2........4 / 2 = 2 <== if the signs are the same
but
4 / -2 = -2.......-4 / 2 = -2 <== if the signs are different

 So basically, if the signs are the same, the result is positive and if the signs are different, the result is negative

Given: ΔABC. If ∠B = 35°, a = 4.5 cm, and b = 6.0 cm, what is the measurement of ∠A to the nearest tenth of a degree?
soldier1979 [14.2K]
We know that

the law of sines established 
a/sin A=b/sin B--------sin A=[a*sin B]/b
a=4.5 cm
b=6 cm
B=35°
so
sin A=[4.5*sin 35°]/6-----> sin A=0.43018
A=arc sin(0.43018)-------> A=25.5°

the answer is the option
<span>C) 25.5° </span>

What is a reasonable estimate for the solution? O (1,-3/4) O (-3/4,1) O (-1,3/4) O (3/4,-1)​
Zina [86]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question is incomplete, as the equations or graph or table(s) were not given.

However, I'll give a general way of solving this.

Take for instance, the equations are:

y = \frac{4}{3}x - 1

y = \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2}

To do this, we start by equating both equations.

y = y

i.e.

\frac{4}{3}x - 1= \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2}

Collect Like Terms

\frac{4}{3}x - \frac{2}{3}x= 1 - \frac{1}{2}

Take LCM

\frac{4x- 2x}{3}= \frac{2 - 1}{2}

\frac{2x}{3}= \frac{1}{2}

Cross Multiply

2x * 2 = 3 * 1

4x = 3

Make x the subject

x = \frac{3}{4}

Substitute 3/4 for x in y = \frac{4}{3}x - 1

y = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{3}{4} - 1

y = 1 - 1

y = 0

Hence:

(x,y) = (\frac{3}{4},0)
