Calculate x Give your answer correct to 1 d.p. Х 35° 15 cm it is a trigonometry question.

OlgaM077 [116]

Here we are finding x, given the angle and adjacent side. To find x we will use the function cos as cos = a/h.

So let's do cos(35°) = 15cm / x

cos(35°) = 0.8 (1 dp)

x = 15 cm / cos(35°)

x = 18.3 cm (1 dp)

A ribbon is 30cm long and it is cut into three pieces such that each piece is 2cm longer than the next. Represent this as an equ

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3 pieces such that each piece is 2 cm longer then the next...

x , x + 2, x + 4

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 30

3x + 6 = 30

3x = 30 - 6

3x = 24

x = 24/3

x = 8

x + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10

x + 4 = 8 + 4 = 12

check...

8 + 10 + 12 = 30

18 + 12 = 30

30 = 30 (correct)...it checks out

the ribbon lengths are : 8 cm, 10 cm, and 12 cm

EXPLANATION:

(a+b)^2=a2+2.a.b+b2

we have to break the middle term in 2ab here a is x then 2xb=8x, => b=4, but value of a and b to get the required equation!

the sum of two numbers is-5.When twice the first number is added to the second number the result is -2,find the two numbers

juin [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First write the question as an equation

x+y = -5

2x+y = -2

From the given equations, we can create a third one.

x+y+2x+y = -7 or 3x+2y = -7

Use trial and error method for the possible values x and y

We know that at least one of these two have to be negative.

x can be 1, in which case y has to be 5.

Check this for

x+y ≠ -5

x can be -1

Try another one where x = -1 and y has to equal -2

Check this

x+y = -5

but,

2x+y ≠ -2

Another one,
