Convert the polar coordinates (-3, -60°) to Cartesian coordinates.

Answer:

(1.5,-2.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the polar coordinates (-3,60°).

Let our Cartesian coordinates be (x,y)

#We know that when converting the rectangular coordinates (x,y) to polar (r,θ), then:

r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\\\\\therefore r^2=x^2+y^2\\\\\theta=tan^{-1}(y/x)\\\therefore tan \theta=y/x

#Using the illustration above, we can express our polar coordinates as:

-3=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\\\\-60\textdegree=tan^{-1}(y/x}

#Solve simultaneously to solve for x and y:

(-3)^2=x^2+y^2\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ i\\\\tan(-0\texdegree)=y/x\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ ...ii\\\\y=x\ tan(-60\textdegree)\ \ \ \ \ \ \ ...iii\\\\\#substitute\  y \ in\  i\\\\(-3)^2=x^2+(x \ tan (-60\textdegree))^2\\\\9=x^2+3x^2\\\\x=\sqrt{9/4}=1.5\\\\y=1.5\ tan(-60\textdegree)=-2.5981\approx-2.6

Hence, the Cartesian coordinates are (1.5,-2.6)

She has 60% of money left.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find out how much Php that Lei has left :

Php 150 - Php 48 - Php 12 = Php 90

She has a remaining of Php 90. Next, you have to find the percentage by dividing hy original amount and then, multiply by 100 :

(90/150)×100 = (3/5)×100 = 60%

Billy is playing a game using a bag with 11 marbles inside. The bag contains 3 red, 3 orange, 1 yellow, 2 purple marbles, and 2
Dmitrij [34]

Answer: 3/55

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, the bag contains 3 red, 3 orange, 1 yellow, 2 purple marbles, and 2 Pink marbles. Each time he picks an orange marble, she will win a prize.

If he picks a marble the first time, the probability of picking an orange marble will be 3/11. After that we will have 10 marbles left as one has been picked and have 2 orange marbles left, then the probability of picking another orange marble will be 2/10.

Therefore, the probability he will win a prize on both picks will be:

= 3/11 × 2/10

= 6/110

= 3/55

Papessa [141]

we know that

by proportion

\frac{18,000}{900} \frac{\$}{feet}= \frac{x}{60}\frac{\$}{feet} \\\\ 900*x=18,000*60 \\\\x= \frac{18,000*60}{900}\\\\ x= \$1,200

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

\$1,200
