Let (3x+24) represent the measure of an obtuse angle. what are the possible values of x?

1 answer:

3 0

An obtuse angle is an angle with more than 90 degrees and less than 180. so, we can add < 180 and > 90 to the expression, making it the inequality 180 < 3x + 24 > 90. we then solve.

3x + 24 > 90 and 3x + 24 < 180
3x > 66 and 3x < 156
x > 22 and x < 52

so x can be anything more than 22 and less than 52 (it cannot be 52 or more or 22 or less)

hope this helps!

Which transformations are needed to change the parent cosine function to<br> y = 0.35cos(8(x-pi/4))

Levart [38]

Here's a list of the changes and their effect:

$\begin{array}{c|c|c}\text{From}&\text{To}&\text{Effect}\\\cos(x)&\cos\left(x-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)&\text{Horizontal shift}\\\cos\left(x-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)&\cos\left(8\left(x-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)\right)&\text{Horizontal compression}\\\cos\left(8\left(x-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)\right)&0.35\cos\left(8\left(x-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)\right)&\text{Vertical compression}\end{array}$

So, the function is shifted $\frac{\pi}{4}$ units to the right, then it is compressed by a factor 8 horizontally, and a factor 0.35 vertically.

Determine whether the following statement is true or false.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In constructing a confidence interval about the mean, the central limit theorem is usually applied. This makes it possible to use the normal distribution. As the number of samples is increasing, the distribution tends to be normal. This would require using the z distribution. In the case where the sample size is small, we assume a normal distribution and use the t distribution. Therefore, the given statement is true.
