Answer:

Side CA = 7.8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Acute angled \triangle ABC.

\angle B =40^\circ

AB = 10

BC = 12

We can use cosine rule here to find the side AC = b

<em>Formula for cosine rule: </em>

cos B = \dfrac{a^{2}+c^{2}-b^{2}}{2ac}

Where  

a is the side opposite to \angle A

b is the side opposite to \angle B

c is the side opposite to \angle C

cos 40 = \dfrac{12^{2}+10^{2}-b^{2}}{2\times 12\times 10}\\\Rightarrow cos 40 = \dfrac{144+100-b^{2}}{240}\\\Rightarrow 0.77 = \dfrac{244-b^{2}}{240}\\\Rightarrow 244-b^{2} = 0.77 \times 240\\\Rightarrow 244-b^{2} = 183.85\\\Rightarrow 244-183.85 = b^{2}\\\Rightarrow b^2 = 60.15\\\Rightarrow b = 7.76

To the nearest tenth <em>b = 7.8</em>

Answer:

I believe it is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The associative property switches around the order of the digits to make the problem easier. In my opinion it is easiest to multiply the fractions together, and then the whole number.

Which coefficient matrix represents a system of linear equations that has a unique solution ?
finlep [7]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a coefficient matrix along and not the solution matrix

Since solution matrix is not given we cannot check for infinity solutions.

But we can check whether coefficient matrix is 0 or not

If coefficient matrix is zero, the system is inconsistent and hence no solution.

Option A)

|A|=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&2&6\\2&1&3\\-2&3&-4\end{array}\right] =0

since II row is a multiple of I row

Hence no solution or infinite

OPtion B

|B|=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&0&-2\\-7&1&5\\4&-2&0\end{array}\right] \\=2(10)-2(10)=0

Hence no solution or infinite

Option C

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}6&0&-2\\-2&0&6\\1&-2&0\end{array}\right] \\=2(36-2)=68

Hence there will be a unique solution

Option D

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&10&5\\4&1&4\\-1&-2&-1\end{array}\right] \\=2(10)-2(10)=0=0

(since I row is -5 times III row)

Hence there will be no or infinite solution

Option C is the correct answer
