Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is simplified so there are two possible answers here, -4 and -7

There is a root where y = 0 and x = a number

At -4 and -7 y = 0

However at -4 the function bounces since the (x+4) is raised to the 6th power.

When you have an even power, the function bounces at the x-axis, and when you have an odd power the function goes through the x-axis.

Since you can only choose one answer, the logical answer would be -7.

At x = -7, y = 0 and the function crosses the x-axis.

At x = -4, y = 0 but the function bounces on the x-axis.

The logical answer here is -7.

Using a trigonometric identity, it is found that the values of the cosine and the tangent of the angle are given by:

$\cos{\theta} = \pm \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}$

$\tan{\theta} = \pm \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}$

<h3>What is the trigonometric identity using in this problem?</h3>

The identity that relates the sine squared and the cosine squared of the angle, as follows:

$\sin^{2}{\theta} + \cos^{2}{\theta} = 1$

In this problem, we have that the sine is given by:

$\sin{\theta} = \frac{1}{3}$

Hence, applying the identity, the cosine is given as follows:

$\cos^2{\theta} = 1 - \sin^2{\theta}$

$\cos^2{\theta} = 1 - \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^2$

$\cos^2{\theta} = 1 - \frac{1}{9}$

$\cos^2{\theta} = \frac{8}{9}$

$\cos{\theta} = \pm \sqrt{\frac{8}{9}}$

$\cos{\theta} = \pm \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}$

The tangent is given by the sine divided by the cosine, hence:

$\tan{\theta} = \frac{\sin{\theta}}{\cos{\theta}}$

$\tan{\theta} = \frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\pm \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}}$

$\tan{\theta} = \pm \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}$

$\tan{\theta} = \pm \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}$

A regular polygon has a perimeter of 40 cm and a apothem of 6 cm. find the polygons area

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

a = 120 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

n = number of sides

edge length

40/n

divide the polygon into n congruent triangles

a = (1/2)(edge * apothem) * number of triangles

a = (1/2)(40/n)(6) * n

n cancels out

a = (1/2)(40)(6)

a = 120 cm²

a path that is 7/8 of a mile long is divided into sections that are two sixteenth of a mile long how many sections are created?

docker41 [41]

Answer:

There are going to be 7 sections in the path

Step-by-step explanation:

First Step:

Simplify 2/16 in 1/8

Second Step:

Since the path is 7/8 of a mile long, and the sections are 1/8 of a mile long. There will be 7 sections because 1/8 will go into 7/8 7 times.
