Step-by-step explanation:
Let d represent number of dolls in 2nd basket.
We have been given that a day-care center has 2 baskets of dolls. One basket has 8 dolls, and the other basket has an unknown number of dolls in it. We are asked to represent this situation in an expression.
The number in both baskets would be equal to dolls in 1st basket plus dolls in 2nd basket.
We can represent this information in an expression as:
Therefore, our required expression would be
, where d represents number of dolls in 2nd basket.
Answer:
Decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of exponential functions is
·
. If
, or the base with the exponent, is bigger than 1, than the graph increases, experiencing growth. If the base is somewhere between 0 and 1, then the graph decreases, experiencing decay.
is a number in between 0 and 1, thus the graph would decrease.

Answer:
5. 88.0°
6. 13.0°
7. 52.4°
8. 117.8°
Step-by-step explanation:
For angle A between sides b and c, the law of cosines formula can be solved to find the angle as ...
A = arccos((b² +c² -a²)/(2bc))
When calculations are repetitive, I find a spreadsheet useful. It doesn't mind doing the same thing over and over, and it usually makes fewer mistakes.
Here, the side opposite x° is put in column 'a', so angle A is the value of x. The order of the other two sides is irrelevant.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The spreadsheet ACOS function returns the angle in radians. The DEGREES function must be used to convert it to degrees. The formula for the first problem is shown here:
=degrees(ACOS((C3^2+D3^2-B3^2)/(2*C3*D3)))
As you can probably tell from the formula, side 'a' is listed in column B of the spreadsheet.
The spreadsheet rounds the results. This means the angle total is sometimes 179.9 and sometimes 180.1 when we expect the sum of angles to be 180.0.
