Answer:

sinΘ = - \frac{15}{17}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the trigonometric identity

sin²x + cos²x = 1

⇒ sinx = ± \sqrt{1-cos^2x}

Since 180 < Θ < 270 then sinΘ < 0

sinΘ = - \sqrt{1-(-8/17)^2}

        = - \sqrt{1-\frac{64}{289} }

        = - \sqrt{\frac{225}{289} } = - \frac{15}{17}

Here is your answer

[I am using ☆ instead of theta]

cos☆= -8/17

{cos}^{2}☆= {(-8/17)}^{2}= 64/289

Now,

sin☆= \sqrt{1-{cos}^{2}☆}

sin☆= \sqrt{1- (64/289)}

sin☆= \sqrt{(289-64)/289}

sin☆= \sqrt{225/289}

sin☆= 15/17

Since, 180<theta<270

so, it must lie in 3rd quadrant.

In third quadrant

sin☆ is -ve

Hence, sin☆= -15/17

Which absolute value function has a graph that is wider than the parent function, f(x) = |x|, and is translated to the right 2 u
RoseWind [281]

Transformation involves changing the form of a function.

The absolute value function is f(x)=0.3|x -2|

The parent function of the absolute value function is:

f(x)=|x|

When the function is translated 2 units to the right, the new function is:

f(x)=|x -2|

From the function to be wider than the absolute function, the function must be stretched by a factor less than 1.

The possible function from the list of given options is f(x)=0.3|x -2|

Can someone help me with this
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

\frac{1}{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

So say there are x yellow cubes.

Yellow = x

Blue = 3x

Green = 15x

It doesn't say red so I'm going to assume there are none.

\frac{x}{18x}=\frac{1}{18}
