Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So the two lines before and after the expression means absolute value, or modulus of, knowing this, it means that the answer must always yield positive. So if x-6 is positive, it will stay positive, if x-6 is negative, it will turn positive, therefore it can never yield a negative value.

Now im assuming the second question is meant to be absolute value of x-5 is less than 0, because it makes no sense otherwise.

So now knowing that x-5 is always positive, or 0, but this inequality only wants less than 0, this means there are no solutions for the inequality.

ANSWER

x = 50.5 \degree

EXPLANATION

We use the sine rule for solving triangles.

This is given by the formula,


\frac{ \sin(A) }{a}  =  \frac{ \sin(B) }{b}  = \frac{ \sin(C) }{c}


From the triangle,

\frac{ \sin(x) }{60}  =  \frac{ \sin(40) }{50}

We multiply both sides of the equation by 60 to get,

sin(x)  =  \frac{ 60\sin(40 \degree) }{50}


sin(x)  = 0.7713



We solve for x to obtain,

x = arcsin(0.7713)


x = 50.475

To the nearest tenth, we round to one decimal place to get,

x = 50.5 \degree

Evaluate the expression(-3.8)+0+y for the given values of y.
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

y = -3.3 then  -7.1

y = -7.1 then  -10.9

y = -2.6 then -6.4

y = 1 then -2.8

y = 4.2 then 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3.8)+0+y can be simplified to -3.8 + y. Evaluate each value for y by substituting it into the expression and solving.

y = -3.3 then -3.8 + -3.3 = -7.1

y = -7.1 then -3.8 + -7.1 = -10.9

y = -2.6 then -3.8 + -2.6 = -6.4

y = 1 then -3.8 + 1 = -2.8

y = 4.2 then -3.8 + 4.2 = 0.4

A number a decreased by 7 is 2.
umka21 [38]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first convert this to numbers. When a number is decreased by a certain amount, that is the same as saying that something is subtracted from it. Therefore:

a-7=2

Add 7 to both sides:

a-7+7=2+7

a=9

Hope this helps!

Ah yes, good ol’ Pythagorean’s theorem.

The hypotenuse is the opposite of the 90 degree angle, the longest side of the triangle.

The legs are opposite of the acute angles

Formula: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

2:

Let’s plug in some values

(6)^2 + (3)^2 = c^2

C = 6.7

The side will be 6.7 units

3)

Let’s plug in some values

(13.3)^2 = (9.7)^2 + (b)^2

(13.3)^2 - (9.7)^2 = b^2

176.89 - 94.09 = b^2

b = 9.1

The side will be 9.1 units

Vertical shift is -2. Horizontal shift is 1. Check the box that says reflect over x-axis. Horizontal shrink should be 4. Then to check if it looks right go to Desmos.com and in the graphing calculator put in y=-4(x-1)^2-2 and see if it looks like the one you did in your work
