Answer: -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that : $g(x)=kf(x)$ (1)

It means that f(x) and g(x) are proportional.

[Equation of direct variation: y=kx , where k= proportionality constant.]

From the given graph ,

At x= -3 , f(x)=1 and g(x) =-3

Put value of x=-3 in (1) , we get

$g(-3)=kf(-3)$

$\Rightarrow\ -3=k(1)$ [∵ f(x)=1 and g(x) =-3]

$\Rightarrow\ -3=k$

i.e. The value of k = -3

Hence, the correct answer is -3.

Which polygon is a base of the triangular prism?

V125BC [204]

A pyramid or triangular prism is a polyhedron that has a base, which can be any polygon, and three or more triangular faces that meet at a point called the vertex.

Explanation:

These triangular sides are sometimes called the lateral faces to distinguish them from the base.
It is a polyhedron that has a base, which can be any polygon, and three or more triangular faces that meet at a point called the vertex.
The base of the triangular prism is in the shape of a quadrilateral and the lateral face is in the shape of a triangle.

$\bf cot(\theta)=\cfrac{cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}
\\\\\\
sin^2(\theta)+cos^2(\theta)=1\implies cos^2(\theta)=1-sin^2(\theta)
\\\\\\
cos(\theta)=\pm\sqrt{1-sin^2(\theta)}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
cot(\theta)=\cfrac{cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}\implies cot(\theta)=\cfrac{\pm\sqrt{1-sin^2(\theta)}}{sin(\theta)}$

Find the value of x round to the nearest tenth

zzz [600]

Answer:

4.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment marked x bisects the chord, so the triangle shown has legs x and 7.8, and hypotenuse 8.8.

The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find x:

8.8² = x² +7.8²

x² = 8.8² -7.8² = 77.44 -60.84 = 16.60

x = √16.6

x ≈ 4.1 . . . cm
