Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

let pq = x

given oq - pq = 1 then oq = 1 + x

Using Pythagoras' identity, then

(oq)² = 7² + x²

(1 + x)² = 49 + x² ( expand left side )

1 + 2x + x² = 49 + x² ( subtract 1 from both sides )

2x + x² = 48 + x² ( subtract x² from both sides )

2x = 48 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 24 ⇒ pq = 24

and oq = 1 + x = 1 + 24 = 25 ← hypotenuse

sinq = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{7}{25}

cosq = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{24}{25}

Answer:

the answer would be 4/10 but the simplified version would be 2/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

add up how many bows you have, that will be the denominator. Then, the numerator is the number of purple bows. and if your going to simplify it divide the numerator and denominator by 2.

A certain triangle has a perimeter of 3084 mi. The shortest side measures 76 mi less than the middle side, and the longest side
kari74 [83]

shortest side: 851

middle side:927

longest side : 1306

Explanation

Step 1

Let

x represents the shortest side

y represents the middle side

z represents the longest side

so, set the equations

a) the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the sides, so

\begin{gathered} \text{Perimeter= side1+side2+side3} \\ replace \\ 3084=x+y+z \\ x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \end{gathered}

b) The shortest side measures 76 mi less than the middle​ side( in other words, you have to subtract 76 from middle side to get the shortest side)

x=y-76\Rightarrow equation(2)

c) and the longest side measures 379 mi more than the middle side,( in other words, you have to add 379 to middle side to obtain the longest side)

z=y+379\Rightarrow equation(3)

Step 2

solve the equations

a) now, replace the x an z value sfrom equation (2) and (3) into equation(1)

\begin{gathered} x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \\ (y-76)+y+(y+379)=3084 \\ -76+3y+379=3084 \\ 303+3y=3084 \\ 3y=3084-303 \\  \\ 3y=2781 \\ \text{divide both sides by 3} \\ \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{2781}{3} \\ y=927 \end{gathered}

now, replace the y value in equatino (2) to find x

b)

\begin{gathered} x=y-76\Rightarrow equation(2) \\ x=927-76 \\ x=851 \end{gathered}

c) finally, prelace x and y value in equation (1) to find z

\begin{gathered} x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \\ 851+927+z=3084 \\ \text{add like terms} \\ 1778+z=3084 \\ \text{subtract 1778 in both sides} \\ 1778+z-1778=3084-1778 \\ z=1306 \end{gathered}

so

shortest side: 851

middle side:927

longest side : 1306

I hope this helps you

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, -6)(1,−6) and (-8, 9) ?(−8,9)?
Monica [59]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  m = -5/3      

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Point 1 = (1, -6)

Point 2 = (-8, 9)

Process

To find the slope just substitute the values in the formula and simplify.

Formula

slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

-Identify x1, y1, x2 and y2

  x1 = 1    y1 = -6   x2 = -8  y2 = 9

-Substitution

             m = (9 + 6) / (-8 - 1)

-Simplification

             m = 15/-9

-Result

             m = -5/3

Moby sold half his toy car collection, and then bought 12 more cars the next day. He now has 48 toy cars. How many cars did he h
castortr0y [4]

Answer: 72 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of toys that Moby had to start with.

According to the information given in the exercise, Moby sold half his toy car collection. This can be represented with the following expression:

\frac{1}{2}x

Then he bought 12 more cars, giving a total amount of 48 toy cars.

Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is the equation shown below:

x-\frac{1}{2}x+12=48

Now you must solve for "x" in order to find its value.

You get that this is:

\frac{1}{2}x+12=48\\\\\frac{1}{2}x=48-12\\\\\frac{1}{2}x=36\\\\x=(36)(2)\\\\x=72
