Cos(42)=x/17000
X=17000*cos(42)
X=17000*0.743
X==12,631

( adding and subtracting unlike fractions in word problems)
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

2/3 cup

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to convert the fractions so that they have the same denominator (1/3 turns into 2/6)

then you just add up the numerators (2+2=4..... 4/6)

you can stop there or you can simplify it (4/6 turns into 2/3)

The sum of a two digit number and the number obtained by interchanging the digits is 132. If the two digits differ by 2, find th
damaskus [11]

Answer:

A two-digit number can be written as:

a*10 + b*1

Where a and b are single-digit numbers, and a ≠ 0.

We know that:

"The sum of a two-digit number and the number obtained by interchanging the digits is 132."

then:

a*10 + b*1 + (b*10 + a*1) = 132

And we also know that the digits differ by 2.

then:

a = b + 2

or

a =  b - 2

So let's solve this:

We start with the equation:

a*10 + b*1 + (b*10 + a*1) = 132

(a*10 + a) + (b*10 + b) = 132

a*11 + b*11 = 132

(a + b)*11 = 132

(a + b) = 132/11 = 12

Then:

a + b = 12

And remember that:

a = b + 2

or

a = b - 2

Then if we select the first one, we get:

a + b = 12

(b + 2) + b = 12

2*b + 2 = 12

2*b = 12 -2 = 10

b = 10/2 = 5

b = 5

then a = b + 2= 5 + 2 = 7

The number is 75.

And if we selected:

a = b - 2, we would get the number 57.

Both are valid solutions because we are changing the order of the digits, so is the same:

75 + 57

than

57 + 75.

Alexandra [31]

Multiplying 3/7 by the reciprocal of -3/14,

\frac{3}{7} \times  \frac{14}{ - 3} \\  =  \frac{1}{1} \times  \frac{2}{ - 1} \\  =  \frac{2}{ - 1} \\  =  - 2

Hope it helps!!
