Answer:

30 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a line from R perpendicular to PQ to meet PQ at T.

RQT forms a right-angled triangle with RT = SP = 15.

So tan 36.87 = RT / TQ

tan 36.87 = 15 / TQ

TQ = 15 / tan 36.87

= 20 cm.

Now PT = SR = 10, so

PQ = 10 + 20

= 30 cm.

Answer:

f(4) = 49

f(-3) = -35

Step-by-step explanation:

f(4) = 12(4) + 1 = 48 + 1 = 49

f(-3) = 12(-3) + 1 = -36 + 1 = -35

V=1/2at^2 solve for t

malfutka [58]

$\dfrac{1}{2}at^2=V\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\\\at^2=2V\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ a\neq0\\\\t^2=\dfrac{2V}{a}\to\boxed{t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2V}{a}}}$

Ab over 2 equal 2a minus 1,express a in terms of b

sasho [114]

$\frac{ab}{2}$ = 2a - 1

2( $\frac{ab}{2}$ ) = 2(2a - 1) multiplied both sides by 2

ab = 4a - 2 distributed the 2 on the right side

ab - 4a = -2 subtracted 4a from both sides

a(b - 4) = -2 factored out "a" from the left side

a = $\frac{-2}{b - 4}$ divided (b - 4) on both sides

Answer: a = $\frac{-2}{b - 4}$
