Answer:

b = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

You probably already know the general equation from the my last couple of answer.

In this question, we have:

a=8

b= ?

c= -10   ,   c is the value of the foci

surprisingly, you can solve the value for a, b, and c using the same equation as the Pythagorean theorem.

c² = a² + b²

we need to solve for b so lets rearrange the equation.

b² = c² - a²

b = ±√(c² - a²)

b = ±√((-10)² - (8)²)

b = ±√((-10)² - (8)²)

b = ±√(100 - 64)

b = ±√(36)

b = ±6

b = 6

Two angles are supplementary. The larger angle is 33 degrees more than 6 times the smaller angle. Find the measure of each angle
noname [10]

Sum of two angles that are supplementary = 180°

Let the smaller angle be = x

Let \:  the  \: smaller \:  angle \:  be \:  =  \: x

then \: the \: larger \: angle \:  = 6x + 33

<h3>Their sum :</h3>

x + 6x + 33 = 180

7x + 33 = 180

7x = 180 - 33

7x = 147

x =  \frac{147}{7}

x = 21

Using this let us find the measures of the smaller angle and bigger angle .

smaller \: angle \:  = x = 21°

larger \: angle \:  = 6x + 33 = 6 \times 21 + 33 = 126 + 33 = 159°

∴ The measure of the two angles are = 21° and 159° .

Katrina buys a 42-ft roll of fencing to make a rectangular play area for her dogs.
vekshin1

Answer:

(a) l = -w + 21

(b) Domain: 0 <em>(See attachment for graph)</em>

(c) f(w) = -w + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(l + w) = 42

l = length

w = width

Solving (a): A function; l in terms of w

All we need to do is make l the subject in 2(l + w) = 42

Divide through by 2

l + w = 21

Subtract w from both sides

l + w - w = 21 - w

l  = 21 - w

Reorder

l = -w + 21

Solving (b): The graph

In (a), we have:

l = -w + 21

Since l and w are the dimensions of the fence, they can't be less than 1

So, the domain of the function can be 0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To check this

When w = 1

l = -1 + 21

l = 20

(w,l) = (1,20)

When w = 20

l = -20 + 21

l = 1

(w,l)= (20,1)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<em>See attachment for graph</em>

<em></em>

Solving (c): Write l as a function f(w)

In (a), we have:

l = -w + 21

Writing l as a function, we have:

l = f(w)

Substitute f(w) for l in l = -w + 21

l = -w + 21 becomes

f(w) = -w + 21
