Does a vending machine represent a function and why?

Sure, depending on how the machine is constructed or programmed.

A function can represent any process that takes some input and assigns exactly one output to it. In the case of a simple vending machine, there could one button or sequence of button presses that correspond to the delivery of a certain drink or snack (provided that enough money is fed into the machine first).

A machine that wouldn't qualify as representing a function would be one that consistently offers two or more different drinks.

Given that A=27, B=43 and c=17, solve triangle ABC to the nearest hundredth
katrin2010 [14]
When we are given 3 sides, we try to solve the angles first by using the
law of cosines
cos (A) = [b^2 + c^2 - a^2] / (2 * b * c)
cos (A) = [43^2 + 17^2 -27^2] / (2 * 43 * 17)
cos (A) = [1,849 + 289 -729] / <span> <span> <span> 1,462
</span></span></span>cos (A) = 1,409 / 1,462
cos (A) = <span> <span> <span> 0.96374829001368
Angle A = 15.475

Now that we have one angle, we next can use the
Law of Sines
sin(B) / side b = sin(A) / side a
sin(B) = sin(A) * sideb / sidea
</span></span></span><span>sin(B) = sin(15.475) * 43 / 27
</span><span>sin(B) = 0.26682 * 43 / 27
sin (B) = </span><span>0.424935555555</span>
Angle B = 25.147 Degrees
Remember the arc sine (<span>0.424935555555) also equals </span> <span> <span> <span> 154.85

</span></span></span>Finally, calculating the third angle is quite easy
Angle C =  180 - Angle (A) - Angle(B)
Angle C =  180 - 15.475 - 154.85
Angle C =  9.675

Help me asap please!!!
Artemon [7]
Well, just by looking at the beginning of the problem, Jamelia had made the common mistake of thinking that 
\sqrt{72} (<span>8.4852...)
</span>is equal to 
2* \sqrt{36} (12)

If you want to estimate a square root like 72, simply find squares that would fit around the number you are looking to find, in our case, 72.

So 9*9 is 81, which is too high and 8*8 is 64, which is too low. So you know that somewhere between those numbers is what your root of 72 is!
