Answer:

\sin(\theta)=0.47 and \cos(\theta)=0.88.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Angle lies in first quadrant.

\tan\theta=\frac{8}{15}

Since, \tan\theta=\frac{\cos(\theta}{\sin(\theta)} this does not mean that \sin(\theta)=8 and  \cos(\theta)=15, because it is the ratio of the \sin(\theta) and \cos(\theta) which is not necessarily the exact values of them. And also \sin(\theta) and \cos(\theta) values lie between -1 \ to\ 1 and so it cannot be =8\ or\ 15.

In order to find the exact values, we need to find the exact angle.

\tan\theta=\frac{8}{15}

So,

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{8}{15})

\theta= 28.07\°   As the angle lies in 1st quadrant.

Using the angle \theta we can find the exact values for \sin(\theta) and \cos(\theta).

sin(28.07\°)=0.47

cos(28.07\°)=0.88

In a T-test, if your n=459, your DF is:<br><br> A. 459<br> B. 460<br> C. 458<br> D. A&amp;C
Stels [109]

Answer:

DF = 458

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, T-test have an extensive application. T-tests are used in hypothesis testing or inference about the population mean when the population standard deviation is not known. Nevertheless, they are used in making inference in paired samples or dependent samples t-test as well as independent samples.

The degrees of freedom, DF, is a characteristic of the student's t distribution which is used in T-tests. In a simple T-test;

DF = n - 1

where n is the sample size

Given n is 459, DF = 459 - 1 = 458

Therefore, DF = 458

If ED = x + 4 and DB = 3x - 8, find ED, DB, and EB
Tom [10]

Answer:

Part 1) ED=10\ units

Part 2) DB=10\ units

Part 3) EB=20\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

EB=ED+DB

ED=DB -----> given problem

Substitute the given values and solve for x

x+4=3x-8

3x-x=4+8

2x=12

x=6

<em>Find the value of ED</em>

ED=x+4

substitute the value of x

ED=6+4=10\ units

<em>Find the value of DB</em>

Remember that

ED=DB

therefore

DB=10\ units

<em>Find the value of EB</em>

EB=ED+DB

EB=10+10=20\ units

Solve this equation. 5n+7=7(n+1)-2n
9966 [12]
Distribute 7 to both n and 1

7(n + 1) = 7n + 7

5n + 7 = 7n + 7 - 2n

Combine like terms

5n + 7 = 7n - 2n + 7

5n + 7 = 5n + 7

If you want to solve for n, subtract 7 from both sides

5n + 7 (-7) = 5n + 7 (-7)

5n = 5n

then divide 5 from both sides

5n/5 = 5n/5

n = n

Effectively, this equation is <em>unsolvable</em>

hope this helps
