Afina-wow [57]4 years ago
6 0
(x+1)(x-5)= 2^4=16

x^2 -4x -5 =16

x^2-4x-21=0

x= -3 or 7
but we would choose 7 as the answer as -3 gives negative value at (x+1) and we know that log of negative number is not defined.

Flip a coin and toss a 1-6 number cube. Probability of: (heads and not a 3)
jeka94
When finding the probability of two things happening, you multiply the probability of each individual thing happening. The chances of heads are 1/2 and the chances of not a 3 are 5/6. 1/2*5/6 = 5/12. The probability of that is 5/12

Solve the right triangle shown in the figure BC = 1.6in< A=48.8 C =90
yKpoI14uk [10]
Drawing a diagram to represent the information you've given, the only angle we are missing is B.  We can find that by subtracting the two we're given from 180:
180 - 90 - 48.8 = 41.2
<em>m</em>∠<em>B</em> = 41.2°.
We can use the angles and the one side we're given to find the remaining sides.  Since we do not know the length of the hypotenuse, AB, we cannot use sine or cosine.  We must use tangent (the ratio for tangent is opposite/adjacent):
\tan 41.2 = \frac{x}{1.6}
Multiply both sides by 1.6:
1.6 \tan 41.2 = x&#10;\\ 3.67 = x
This is the length of side AC, which is opposite to angle B.
To find the length of AB we can use the Pythagorean Theorem:
(1.6)^2+(3.67)^2=c^2&#10;\\ 2.56+13.4689=c^2&#10;\\ 16.0289=c^2&#10;\\ \sqrt{16.0289} = \sqrt{c^2}&#10;\\ 4=c
The length of side AC, the hypotenuse, is 4 inches.

Find the perimeter and area of the polygon shown below.
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

A. P = 72 feet, A = 300 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Perimeter = sum of all sides of the polygon = 15 + 16 + 17 + 8 + 16 = 72 ft

✔️Area of the polygon = area of a trapezoid = ½(a + b)h

Where,

a = 16 ft

b = 16 + 8 = 24 ft

h = 15 ft

Substitute

Area = ½(16 + 24)15

Area = ½(40)15

Area = 300 ft²
