Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given triangle ABC is right angled at C.

Therefore

A + B + 90 = 180

A + B = 180 - 90 = 90

B = 90 -A

Given

sin A = 2x + 5  ----------------------->A

cos B =  4x - 17 ----------------------->B

Also B = 90 - A

Substituting value of B in terms of A in equation B

we have

Cos 90 - A = 4x - 17    ( we know that cos(90-A) = sin A)

=>Sin A = 4x - 17 ----------------------->C

also it is given that sin A = 2x + 5

equating equation A and C we have

2x + 5 = 4x - 17

=> 4x - 2x = 5 + 17

=> 2x = 22

=> x = 22/2 = 11

X is 11

Which of the following ordered pairs could be placed in the table and still have the relation qualify as a linear function?
vagabundo [1.1K]
Linear functions have to have the same slope between any 2 points

find the slope betwen them
slope betwen 2 points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
(y1-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(1,12) and (3,9)
slope=(9-12)/(3-1)=-3/2

if we wanted to chek furthere, we check (3,9) and (5,6) and fnd that the slope is also -3/2

so
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint
y=-3/2x+b
find b
if x=1 then y=12
12=-3/2+b
add 3/2 both sides
12+3/2=b
13+1/2=b
26/2+1/2=b
27/2=b
y=-3/2x+27/2
try them

we have 2 x values
7 and 3
input them and see their outputs

for x=7
y=-3/2(7)+27/2
y=-21/2+27/2
y=6/2
y=3
(7,3) is a valid point

for x=3
hold a second, we already have a x=3
it is (3,9)
none of them


answer is (7,3)
