Step 1
Formulate a recursive sequence modeling the number of grams after n  minutes.
we have that
100%-17.1%-------------- > 82.9%------------> 0.829

a(n) = 780*[0.829<span>^n]
</span>
for n=19 minutes
a(19)=780*[0.829^(19)]=22.1121 g---------------> 22.1 g

the answer is 22.1 g

If angle x=55% and angle y=35, calculate the following 1.cos(x+y) ​
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

cos(X+Y) = cos(55+35) = cos(90) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

cos(X+Y) = cosXcosY - sinXsinY

cos(55+35) = cos(55)cos(35) - sin(55)sin(35)

cos(55+35) = cos(55)cos(35) - cos(90-55)cos(90-35)

cos(55+35) = cos(55)cos(35) - cos(35)cos(55)

cos(55+35) = 0

cos(90) = 0

Write the equation that passes through the following points:<br><br> (5,0) and (−10,−5)
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The answer is:

y =  \frac{1}{3} x -  \frac{5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

❃Incase you forgot what the linear equation formula is ☟

y = mx + b

❃Incase you also forgot, The is what the slope formula is ☟

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1 }{x_2 - x_1}

➊ First: We are going to be solving for the slope.

m = \frac{  - 5 - 0}{ - 10 - 5} = \frac{ - 5}{  - 15} =  \frac{1}{3}

➋Second: We find the y-intercept.

y = mx + b \\ 0 =  \frac{1}{3} (5) + b \\ 0 =  \frac{5}{3}  + b \\ \frac{  -   \frac{5}{3}  =  -  \frac{5}{3 }   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \: \: \: \: \: }{  -  \frac{5}{3}  = b}

➌Third: Plug in.

y =  \frac{1}{3} x -  \frac{5}{3}

Examine the system of equations.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
<h3><u>Explanation</u></h3>
  • Given the system of equations.

y =  -  \frac{1}{4} x - 2  \\ x = 4

  • Substitute x = 4 in the first equation.

y =  -  \frac{1}{4} (4) - 2 \\ y =  - 1 - 2  \\ y =  - 3

We have both x and y values. Therefore, we can answer in coordinate point form.

<h3><u>Answer</u></h3>

<u>\large \boxed{(4, - 3)}</u>

What are the coordinates of the point on the directedline segment from K(-5,-4) to L(5,1) that partitionsthe segment into a rati
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
You can solve this either just plain algebra or with the use of trigonometry.
In this case, we'll just use algebra.
 
So, if we let M be the the point that partitions the segment into a ratio of 3:2, we have this relation:
KM/ML = 3/2
KM = 1.5 ML

We also have this:
KL = KM + ML
Substituting KM,
KL = (3/2) ML + ML
KL = 2.5 ML

Using the distance formula and the given coordinates of the K and L, we get the length of KL
KL = sqrt ( (5-(-5)^2 + (1-(-4))^2 ) = 5 sqrt(5)

Since,
KL = 2.5 ML

Substituting KL,
ML = (1/2.5) KL = (1/2.5) 5 sqrt(5) = 2 sqrt(5)

Using again the distance formula from M to L and letting (x,y) as the coordinates of the point M
ML = 2 sqrt(5) = sqrt ( (5-x)^2 + (1-y)^2 )   [let this be equation 1]

In order to solve this, we need to find an expression of y in terms of x. We can use the equation of the line KL.
The slope m is:
m = (1-(-4))/(5-(-5) = 0.5

Using the general form of the linear equation:
y = mx +b
We substitue m and the coordinate of K or L. We'll just use K.
-5 = (0.5)(-4) + b
b = -1.5

So equation of the line is
y = 0.5x - 1.5      [let this be equation 2]

Substitute equation 2 to equation 1 and solving for x, we get 2 values of x,
x=1, x=9

Since 9 does not make sense (it does not lie on the line), we choose x=1.
Using the equation of the line, we get y which is -1.

So, we get the coordinates of point M which is (1,-1)
