2 answers:

7 0

I would say the length of side BD is 26.1 rounded to the tenths place.
Explanation:
You can use Cosine
Equation: Cos(40)=20/x [x being BD]
Or 20/Cos(40) which leaves you with 26.10815...
Therefore BD’s length would be 26.1 when rounded.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$cos\theta=\dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\\\\cos(40^o)=\dfrac{20}{BD}\\\\\\BD=\dfrac{20}{cos(40^o)}\\\\\\BD=26.1$

The sum of a number and its reciprocal is 13/6. find the number

Anna71 [15]

$x + \frac{1}{x} = \frac{13}{6} \text{, x} \neq 0$
$x^{2} - \frac{13}{6}x + 1 = 0$
$6x^{2} - 13x + 6 = 0$
$6x^{2} -9x - 4x + 6 = 0$
$3x(2x - 3) - 2(2x - 3) = 0$
$(3x - 2)(2x - 3) = 0$

So, the numbers are: 3/2 and 2/3
