Answer:

115° and 245°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

cos x = - 0.4226

Since cos x < 0 then x is an angle in the second / third quadrants, thus

x =  (0.4226) = 65° ← related acute angle , thus

x = 180° - 65° = 115° ← angle in second quadrant

x = 180° + 65° = 245° ← angle in third quadrant

Answer:

x=\{44\º, 317\º\}

Step-by-step explanation:

The interval given is (0, 360\º) \text{ or } (0, 2\pi)

In exercises of this kind I usually use

\cos \left(x\right)=a\quad \Rightarrow \quad \:x=\arccos \left(a\right)+360\º n, n \in \mathbb{Z}

\quad \:x=\arccos \left( 0.7252\right)+360\º n, n \in \mathbb{Z}

And \arccos \left( 0.7252\right) \approx 43.5^{\circ \:}

But once we have the solution for cos in two different quadrants, I mean, Quadrant I and Quadrant IV angle.

To the nearest degree, we have

x=\{44\º, 317\º\}

Stefan sells Jin a bicycle for $137 and a helmet for $17. The total cost for Jin is 140% of what Stefan spent originally to buy
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Stefan originally spent $110.

Stefan made a profit of $44.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Stefan sold the bike and helmet for $137 and $17

Total amount = 137+17 = $154

This is 140% of the price Stefan originally paid.

Let,

x be the original price paid by Stefan

140% of x = $154

\frac{140}{100}x=154\\1.4x = 154\\\frac{1.4x}{1.4}=\frac{154}{1.4}\\x=110

Therefore,

Stefan originally paid $110 for the bicycle and helmet.

Profit made by Stefan = 154-110 = $44

Hence,

Stefan originally spent $110.

Stefan made a profit of $44.

We
let r be the rate in parts per minute at which the lawn sprinkler would fill the pool if use alone then

If the handheld hose and the lawn sprinkler are used together, we have this equation:
5/r + 5/8 = 1

Simplifying this expression,
5(8) + 5r = 1

. Cody has $700 in a savings account that pays 4% simple interest. What is the amount of simple interest he will earn in 2 years
Ganezh [65]
A = $756.00

(I = A - P = $56.00)

Equation:
A = P(1 + rt)
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 4%/100 = 0.04 per year.

Solving our equation:
A = 700(1 + (0.04 × 2)) = 756 
A = $756.00

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from simple interest on a principal of $700.00 at a rate of 4% per year for 2 years is $756.00.
