Answer:

cosine theta equals negative square root of three over two; tangent theta equals negative square root of three over three

Step-by-step explanation:

If the angle were a 1st-quadrant angle, it would be ...

arcsin(1/2) = π/6

and the other functions would be ...

cos(π/6) = (√3)/2

tan(π/6) = 1/√3 = (√3)/3

The angle of interest is in the second quadrant, where the signs of cosine and tangent are negative. Hence, ...

θ = 5π/6
cos(5π/6) = -(√3)/2
tan(5π/6) = -(√3)/3

What is the slope of the line whose equation is -48 = 2x - 8y?<br> Enter your answer in the box.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The slope is $\frac{2}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the general equation of a straight line $y = mx+c$

Here $m$ is the slope of the line.

So let's get the equation of the line in the question in the same form.

$-48 = 2x-8y$

Add $8y$ to both sides: $8y - 48 = 2x$

Add $48$ to both sides: $8y = 2x + 48$

Divide by $8$ to get it into the general equation: $y = \frac{2}{8} x + 6$

Now compare it to the general equation to find the value of $m$ . The value of $m$ is the coefficient of $x$ which we can see is $\frac{2}{8}$

Mr. Abraham is 36 years old. His wife is 6 years younger than him and their son is 24 years old younger than his wife. What is t

sesenic [268]

Hi!
We know that Mr. Abraham’s wife is 6 years younger than him, which is 36-6, which means his wife is 30 years old.

We also know that Mr A’s son is 24 years younger than his wife, which is 30-24, which is 6.

As of right now, we now know that:
Mr. A is 36
Mr. A’s wife is 30
Mr. A’s son is 6

It’s asking for the ratio of Him:Wife:Son, so 36:30:6.

BUT, it’s asking for simplest form, so divide each of those numbers by 6.

Your answer is: 6:5:1
