Answer:

D.) 38.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the cosine ratio:

cosine=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

Because we are given the measure of an angle and the length next to it (adjacent), and we need to find the hypotenuse (the hypotenuse is NEVER considered the adjacent side). Insert the values:

cos75=\frac{10}{x}

Now isolate the variable. Multiply both sides by x:

x(cos75)=x(\frac{10}{x} )

The x's on the right side cancel each other out. Simplify:

x*cos75=10

Now divide both sides by cos75°:

\frac{x*cos75}{cos75} =\frac{10}{cos75}

The cos75° on the left side cancels each other. Simplify:

x=\frac{10}{cos75}

Insert this value into a calculator to simplify the value of x:

x=38.6

The hypotenuse is 38.6 m.

Solve the equation by completing the square. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary. Simplify your solutions and enter them fr
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

-1.1, 6.1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2X^2+10X+14=0

(-2X^2+10X+14)/-2=0

X^2-5X-7=0

Then use the quadratic formula because you can't factor

Fill in the equations and solve. One should have the plus and the other should have the minus and that's how you get the 2 different answers.

A=1

B=-5

C=-7

I’m not completely sure, but I would say about 3/5 because of the fact that the X is not directly in the middle, so it can’t be 1/2 but it’s very close to the middle which could make it possible that it is 3/5?
