40/50 is the ratio because the cos formula is adjacent over hypotenuse and you can reduce it to 4/5 as a fraction :)
This has alot of information missing. Can you please repost this with more detailed information? Thanks.
26. Tuesday -5 is colder than all the others
27. Friday 0degrees is the warmest day there
28. 20 degreases on Saturday adding the positive 25 to negative five makes it 20 degrees
The slope of <em>y</em> = 2<em>x</em> - 5 is 2. Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the line through the given points <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> is also 2. This means
(8 - 4) / (6 - <em>n</em>) = 2
Solve for <em>n</em> :
4 / (6 - <em>n</em>) = 2
4/2 = 6 - <em>n</em>
2 = 6 - <em>n</em>
<em>n</em> = 6 - 2
<em>n</em> = 4
The given polyn. is not in std. form. To answer this question, we need to perform the indicated operations (mult., addn., subtrn.) first and then arrange the terms of this poly in descending order by powers of x:
P(x) = x(160 - x) - (100x + 500)
When this work has been done, we get P(x) = 160x - x^2 - 100x - 500, or
P(x) = -x^2 + 60x - 500
So, you see, the last term is -500. This means that if x = 0, not only is there no profit, but the company is "in the hole" for $500.
