Answer:

The ratio representing the tangent of ∠K is 40 : 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the right-angles triangle KLM below.

The angle M is 90°.

KM = perpendicular (p) = 40

ML = base (b) = 9

LK = hypotenuse (h) = 41

The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the perpendicular length to the length of the base.

Compute the tangent of ∠K as follows:

$tan (K)=\frac{p}{b}=\frac{40}{9}$

Thus, the ratio representing the tangent of ∠K is 40 : 9.

The future value of $1,000 invested at 8% compounded semiannually for five years is $\bold{\$ 1,480}$

Solution:

$\bold{A = P (1 + i )^{n}}$ ----------- equation 1

A = future value

P= principal amount

i = interest rate

n = number of times money is compounded

P = 1000

i = 8 %

$\mathrm{n} = \text { compounding period } \times \text {number of years}$

(Compounding period for semi annually = 2)

$\mathrm{n} = \text { compounding period } \times \text {number of years}$

Dividing “i” by compounding period

$i = \frac{8 \%}{2} = 0.04$

Solving for future value using equation 1

$\begin{array}{l}{A = 1000(1 + 0.04)^{10}} \\\\ {=1000 (1.04)^{10}}\end{array}$

$= 1480.2$

$\approx 1,480 \$$

Answer:

$P = 2(l+w)\\Length = 5x\\Width = 3x+7\\\\P = 2(5x +(3x+7))$

Step-by-step explanation:

Further Solving :

$P = 2(5x +(3x+7))\\P = 2(5x+3x+7)\\P = 2(8x+7)\\\\Perimeter = 16x + 14$

Solve the system by substitution. 2x - y = -3, 2x-2y = -2

Sonja [21]

Answer:// Solve equation [1] for the variable y

[1] y = 2x - 3

// Plug this in for variable y in equation [2]

[2] -2•(2x-3) + 2x = 2

[2] - 2x = -4

// Solve equation [2] for the variable x

[2] 2x = 4

[2] x = 2

// By now we know this much :// Solve equation [1] for the variable y

[1] y = 2x - 3

// Plug this in for variable y in equation [2]

[2] -2•(2x-3) + 2x = 2

[2] - 2x = -4

// Solve equation [2] for the variable x

[2] 2x = 4

[2] x = 2

// By now we know this much :

y = 2x-3

x = 2

// Use the x value to solve for y

y = 2(2)-3 = 1

y = 2x-3

x = 2

// Use the x value to solve for y

y = 2(2)-3 = 1

Find the surface area of a sphere with a volume of 36π in3.

swat32

First use known volume to solve for radius:
$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$
$r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi}}$
$r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3(36\pi)}{4\pi}}$
$r=\sqrt[3]{27}$
$r=3$

Then use the radius to get the surface area:
$A_{surf}=4 \pi r^{2}$
$A_{surf}=4 \pi 3^{2}$
$A_{surf}=4 \pi 9$
$A_{surf}=36\pi\approx113.09$
