<span>In the question of whether "3/47 is a rational number" - the answer is "yes". The definition for a rational number used in mathematics is that it can be expressed as a fraction in which both the nominator and the denominator are natural numbers , and this is the case here- both 3 and 47 are natural numbers, so 3/47 is a rational number. </span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Keep in mind that these three trig functions can be interpreted as being the ratios of the side lengths of a triangle:
opposite side
sin x = ----------------------
hypotenuse
adjacent side
cos x = ----------------------
hypotenuse
opposite side
tan x = ----------------------
adjacent side
In the case where you have a right triangle and know the lengths of two of its three sides, that knowledge dictates which of the above trig functions to use in "solving the triangle."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If, for example, the "opposite side" of a triangle is 3 and the "hypotenuse" is 5, we'd choose to use the sine function to find the angle opposite the "opposite side:"
opposite side 3 units
sin x = ---------------------- = -------------
hypotenuse 5 units
Find x by using the inverse sine function:
Angle x = arcsin 3/5 = 0.644 radians or 36.9 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation: 5 20 15 28
3x + y = 23
3x – 2y = 8
O I should add, and the Xs will be eliminated. 3x + 3x = 6x NOT eliminated
O I should add, and the Ys will be eliminated. y + -2y = -y NOT eliminated
O I should subtract, and the Xs will be eliminated. 3x - 3x = 0x X is eliminated
O I should subtract, and the Ys will be eliminated. y - -2y = y NOT eliminated
