Answer:
≈ 33°
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first, you can draw a visual. Refer to the image attached below:
Using this info, you can use trigonometric ratios. Recall that:
tangent = opposite side/adjacent side
sine = opposite side/ hypotenuse
cosine = adjacent side/hypotenuse
You can clearly see that you have an opposite side and a given hypotenuse. This means we'll be using sine.
So:
However, we're not trying to find sinX, we're trying to find X.
So we would have to use inverse sine, which would then be:
Put this into your calculator, and:
X ≈ 33.05573115...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case we find the discriminant b^2 - 4ac.
If the discriminant is negative, we have two unequal, complex roots.
If the discriminant is zero. we have two equal, real roots.
If the discriminant is positive, we have two unequal real roots.
#51: 8v^2 - 12v + 9: the discriminant is (-12)^2 - 4(8)(9) = -144. we have two unequal, complex roots
#52: (-11)^2 - 4(4)(-14) = 121 + 224 = 345. we have two unequal real roots.
#53: (-5)^2 - 4(7)(6) = 25 - 168 (negative). we have two unequal, complex roots.
#54: (4)^2 - 16 = 0. We have two equal, real roots.
First, distribute the (1/2) into (4x+12) by multiplying them.
The equation becomes:
2x + 6 + 5x = 30
On the left side, combine “like terms” through addition.
7x + 6 = 30
Subtract 6 from both sides:
7x = 24
Finally, get x alone by dividing both sides by 7:
x = 24/7, or if you wanted to round the decimal answer, it’s about 3.429.
