Answer:

4:7

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so first convert the feet to inches so 3x12=36. So the it's 36:63. Then if you simplify it you get 4:7.

The newly elected president needs to decide the remaining 5 spots available in the cabinet he/she is appointing. If there are 15

skad [1K]

Answer: There are 360360 ways to appoint the members of the cabinet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of eligible candidates = 15

Number of spots available = 5

We need to find the number of different ways the members can be appointed where rank matters

For this we will use "Permutations":

So, the required number of different ways in choosing the members for appointment is given by

$^{15}P_5=360360$

Hence, there are 360360 ways to appoint the members of the cabinet.

Find the remaining trigonometric ratios of θ if csc(θ) = -6 and cos(θ) is positive

VikaD [51]

Now, the cosecant of θ is -6, or namely -6/1.

however, the cosecant is really the hypotenuse/opposite, but the hypotenuse is never negative, since is just a distance unit from the center of the circle, so in the fraction -6/1, the negative must be the 1, or 6/-1 then.

we know the cosine is positive, and we know the opposite side is -1, or negative, the only happens in the IV quadrant, so θ is in the IV quadrant, now

$\bf csc(\theta)=-6\implies csc(\theta)=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{6}}{\stackrel{opposite}{-1}}\impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{adjacent side}}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=hypotenuse\\
a=adjacent\\
b=opposite\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\pm\sqrt{6^2-(-1)^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{35}=a\implies \stackrel{IV~quadrant}{+\sqrt{35}=a}$

recall that

$\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
\qquad\qquad 
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}
\\\\\\
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}
\qquad \qquad 
% cotangent
cot(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{opposite}
\\\\\\
% cosecant
csc(\theta)=\cfrac{hypotenuse}{opposite}
\qquad \qquad 
% secant
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{hypotenuse}{adjacent}$

therefore, let's just plug that on the remaining ones,

$\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{-1}{6}
\qquad\qquad 
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{6}
\\\\\\
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{-1}{\sqrt{35}}
\qquad \qquad 
% cotangent
cot(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{1}
\\\\\\
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{6}{\sqrt{35}}$

now, let's rationalize the denominator on tangent and secant,

$\bf tan(\theta)=\cfrac{-1}{\sqrt{35}}\implies \cfrac{-1}{\sqrt{35}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{\sqrt{35}}\implies \cfrac{-\sqrt{35}}{(\sqrt{35})^2}\implies -\cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{35}
\\\\\\
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{6}{\sqrt{35}}\implies \cfrac{6}{\sqrt{35}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{\sqrt{35}}\implies \cfrac{6\sqrt{35}}{(\sqrt{35})^2}\implies \cfrac{6\sqrt{35}}{35}$

Which value, when placed in the circle, would result in a system of equations with infinitely many solutions?

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

A. -10

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you would do like this:

y=2x-5

what about 2y(2x-5) times 2)

so 2y=4x- (-10)

10 POINTS !! :( ANSWER BOTH PLS !! DUE BEFORE 11:59 PM

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Easy,

1) To find the area you need to multiply. Therefore 10 x 4 = 40 square centimeters.

2) 20, why? A calculator online for area of a triangle, it really helps! :) just look up triangle area in the future.
