Answer:

x = 25.6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Both angles towards the bottom equal 48 degrees, so the angle on the left (already shown) and across on the right equal 48. Add/multiply both of them

48 * 2 = 96

Now, like triangles, figures with 4 sides add up to a certain number of degree. Four sided figures or quadrilaterals (the ”fancy” math word for it) add up to 360 degrees.

2. Adding up to 360 degrees means that all four angles have to be evenly split, you already know that the corners are 48 degrees, the bottom corners, you don’t know yet, therefore, we subtract 360 by 96 and divide the difference.

360 - 96 = 264

264/2 = 132

3. From the explanation above, you now know that the bottom corners will equal 132 degrees, therefore you will set the equation to be equal to 132 degrees.

5x + 8 = 132

5x = 128

x = 25.6

The answer is x = 25.6, I hope this explained everything, there are some theorems which make remembering these steps a lot easier, and alternative approaches you could have taken, but this is my approach.

Find the general solution of the differential equation and check the result by differentiation. (Use C for the constant of integ

atroni [7]

Answer: $y=Ce^(^3^t^{^9}^)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Beginning with the first differential equation:

$\frac{dy}{dt} =27t^8y$

This differential equation is denoted as a separable differential equation due to us having the ability to separate the variables. Divide both sides by 'y' to get:

$\frac{1}{y} \frac{dy}{dt} =27t^8$

Multiply both sides by 'dt' to get:

$\frac{1}{y}dy =27t^8dt$

Integrate both sides. Both sides will produce an integration constant, but I will merge them together into a single integration constant on the right side:

$\int\limits {\frac{1}{y} } \, dy=\int\limits {27t^8} \, dt$

$ln(y)=27(\frac{1}{9} t^9)+C$

$ln(y)=3t^9+C$

We want to cancel the natural log in order to isolate our function 'y'. We can do this by using 'e' since it is the inverse of the natural log:

$e^l^n^(^y^)=e^(^3^t^{^9} ^+^C^)$

$y=e^(^3^t^{^9} ^+^C^)$

We can take out the 'C' of the exponential using a rule of exponents. Addition in an exponent can be broken up into a product of their bases:

$y=e^(^3^t^{^9}^)e^C$

The term e^C is just another constant, so with impunity, I can absorb everything into a single constant:

$y=Ce^(^3^t^{^9}^)$

To check the answer by differentiation, you require the chain rule. Differentiating an exponential gives back the exponential, but you must multiply by the derivative of the inside. We get:

$\frac{d}{dx} (y)=\frac{d}{dx}(Ce^(^3^t^{^9}^))$

$\frac{dy}{dx} =(Ce^(^3^t^{^9}^))*\frac{d}{dx}(3t^9)$

$\frac{dy}{dx} =(Ce^(^3^t^{^9}^))*27t^8$

Now check if the derivative equals the right side of the original differential equation:

$(Ce^(^3^t^{^9}^))*27t^8=27t^8*y(t)$

$Ce^(^3^t^{^9}^)*27t^8=27t^8*Ce^(^3^t^{^9}^)$

QED

I unfortunately do not have enough room for your second question. It is the exact same type of differential equation as the one solved above. The only difference is the fractional exponent, which would make the problem slightly more involved. If you ask your second question again on a different problem, I'd be glad to help you solve it.

The base of a 15-foot ladder is 6 feet from a building. If the ladder reaches the flat roof, how tall is the building?

Vlad [161]

Answer:

the answer would be 13.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the tall is the building as follows:

Given that

Base is 6 foot

And, the hypotheses is 15 feet

Here we use the Pythagoras theorem

= √15^2 - √6^2

= √225 - √36

= √189

= 13.75 feet

Hence the answer would be 13.75 feet

Planet X is 6 1/3 light-years away from Earth. Planet Y is 1/12 of a light-year away from Earth. How much farther away is Planet

madreJ [45]

Answer: 1/2= 5/10

5/10 - 3/10 = 2/10 or 1/5

so planet X is 1/5 of a light-year closer
