My guess is that you're doing the Law of Cosines? You have everything you need for that except the angle theta, which is the thing you need to find. It's set up like this: (8)^2 = (10)^2 + (5)^2 -[2(10)(5)cos A] I used A instead of theta. Doing that math, you have: 64 = 100 + 25 -[ 100 cos A]; 64 = 125 - 100 cos A;
-61 = - 100 cos A; -61 / -100 = cos A; .61 = cos A. Now use your inverse function on your calculator to find cos^-1(.61) and that equals 52.4
Answer:
y = 15x+32
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
y to be the total minutes Andrew will play video games today
x is the total number of games played after school
If he wants to play an additional 15 minutes each of x games after school today, the total minutes he will use for the x games will be 15* x = (15x)minutes
We are told that he has initially spent 32minutes on video games. hence;
Total minutes Andrew used on games y = (15*x)+32
The required equation will be y = 15x+32
