Let's create this right triangle. We will call it triangle ABC with angle B as the right angle, angle A being the larger of the angles A and C. If the ratio is 5:4, then it is A:C. 5+4 = 9. The measure of the right angle, angle ABC = 90, and 90 divided by 9 is 10. So angle A is 5 * 10 which is 50 degrees, and angle C is 4 * 10 which is 40 degrees. The smallest angle, angle C, is 40 degrees.

100m In 9 3/5 seconds

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Speed = 10.42 m/secs

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given with:-

Distance = 100m

Time taken = 9 $\frac{3}{5}$ secs

1) First, we need to convert the mixed number 9 $\frac{3}{5}$ to an improper fraction.

<u>Method to convert a mixed number to an improper fraction</u>

<u> $a\frac{b}{c} = \frac{c*a+b}{c}$ </u>

Applying the above formula, we get

9 $\frac{3}{5}$ = $\frac{5*9+3}{5}$

= $\frac{45+3}{5}$

= $\frac{48}{5}$

2) Now we need to convert $\frac{48}{5}$ into a decimal by dividing 48 by 5.

We get time taken as 9.6 secs

3) We need to find the speed using the below formula:-

Speed = $\frac{Distance}{Time taken}$

Plugging the values of Distance and Time taken into the formula, we get

Speed = $\frac{100}{9.6}$

= 10.416 m/secs

4) Upon rounding it to the nearest hundredth, we get

Speed = 10.42 m/secs

Determine the next step for solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The solutions are $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{2}$ and $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$0=-2x^{2}+2x+3$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$-3=-2x^{2}+2x$

Factor the leading coefficient

$-3=-2(x^{2}-x)$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

$-3-0.5=-2(x^{2}-x+0.5^{2})$

$-3.5=-2(x^{2}-x+0.5^{2})$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$-3.5=-2(x-0.5)^{2}$

$7/4=(x-0.5)^{2}$

square root both sides

$x-0.5=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$

$x-\frac{1}{2}=(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}$

$x=\frac{1}{2}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}$

$x=\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{2}$

$x=\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{2}$
