Answer:

24, 32, 64

Step-by-step explanation:

1st=3x

2nd=4x

3rd=8x

2(3x)+48=4x+8x

6x+48=12x

48=6x

x=8

SO:

1st =24

2nd= 32

3rd= 64

Answer:

-100

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 of -125 will be -25.

So, if she deposits 1/5 of what she owes, then she will deposit $25.

Her balance will then become -100 because she paid back 25.

Her new balance is -100

In Triangle XYZ, measure of angle X = 49° , XY = 18°, and

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

There are two choices for angle Y: $Y \approx 54.987^{\circ}$ for $XZ \approx 15.193$ , $Y \approx 27.008^{\circ}$ for $XZ \approx 8.424$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

There are mistakes in the statement, correct form is now described:

<em>In triangle XYZ, measure of angle X = 49°, XY = 18 and YZ = 14. Find the measure of angle Y:</em>

The line segment XY is opposite to angle Z and the line segment YZ is opposite to angle X. We can determine the length of the line segment XZ by the Law of Cosine:

$YZ^{2} = XZ^{2} + XY^{2} -2\cdot XY\cdot XZ \cdot \cos X$ (1)

If we know that $X = 49^{\circ}$ , $XY = 18$ and $YZ = 14$ , then we have the following second order polynomial:

$14^{2} = XZ^{2} + 18^{2} - 2\cdot (18)\cdot XZ\cdot \cos 49^{\circ}$

$XZ^{2}-23.618\cdot XZ +128 = 0$ (2)

By the Quadratic Formula we have the following result:

$XZ \approx 15.193\,\lor\,XZ \approx 8.424$

There are two possible triangles, we can determine the value of angle Y for each by the Law of Cosine again:

$XZ^{2} = XY^{2} + YZ^{2} - 2\cdot XY \cdot YZ \cdot \cos Y$

$\cos Y = \frac{XY^{2}+YZ^{2}-XZ^{2}}{2\cdot XY\cdot YZ}$

$Y = \cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{XY^{2}+YZ^{2}-XZ^{2}}{2\cdot XY\cdot YZ} \right)$

1) $XZ \approx 15.193$

$Y = \cos^{-1}\left[\frac{18^{2}+14^{2}-15.193^{2}}{2\cdot (18)\cdot (14)} \right]$

$Y \approx 54.987^{\circ}$

2) $XZ \approx 8.424$

$Y = \cos^{-1}\left[\frac{18^{2}+14^{2}-8.424^{2}}{2\cdot (18)\cdot (14)} \right]$

$Y \approx 27.008^{\circ}$

There are two choices for angle Y: $Y \approx 54.987^{\circ}$ for $XZ \approx 15.193$ , $Y \approx 27.008^{\circ}$ for $XZ \approx 8.424$ .
