Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In trigonometry, secant in a right triangle, is the reciprocal of the cosine of an angle symbol: sec while cosine is in a right triangle, is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to an acute angle to the length of the hypotenuse.

The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle. The cosine of ∠A will be abbreviated as cos ∠A

The secant of x is 1 divided by the cosine of x: sec x = 1 cos x , and the cosecant of x is defined to be 1 divided by the sine of x: csc x = 1 sin x .

Area of a circle = pi*r^2.

Here, A = 380.13 mi.  Unfortunately, "mi" is NOT a unit of area.

So I will assume that the problem should read   A = 380.13 sq. miles.
                                                                    380.12 mi^2
Thus,   380.13 mi^2 = 3.14*r^2, and r^2 = ------------------- 121.057 mi^2
                                                                           3.14

The radius is the sqrt of 121.057 mi^2:  11.00 miles.

The diam. is twice that, or d = 22.00 miles.

It is 30 degrees. Add 90 and 60 to get 180. Then subtract that from 180, since all triangles interior angles add to 180. You’ll get 30.

Prove that the value of the expression<br> (16^3–8^3)(4^3 +2^3) is divisible by 63.
Darya [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

16^3 - 8^3

Take out 8^3 as a common factor.

16^3 = 2^3 * 8^3

8^3(2^3 - 1)  

8^3(8 - 1) = 8^3 * 7

(4^3 + 2^3)     Expand

64 + 8            Combine

72

72 = 9 * 8

Conclusion

(8*3 * 7 )(9*8)

7*9 = 63

So any number containing 63 will divide into the reduced form of

(16^3–8^3)(4^3 +2^3)

-5/4x - 2)=-2(3 +6x)
Alex

Answer:

x = (-16)/43

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(-5 x)/4 - 2 = -2 (6 x + 3)

Put each term in (-5 x)/4 - 2 over the common denominator 4: (-5 x)/4 - 2 = (-5 x)/4 - 8/4:

(-5 x)/4 - 8/4 = -2 (6 x + 3)

(-5 x)/4 - 8/4 = (-5 x - 8)/4:

(-5 x - 8)/4 = -2 (6 x + 3)

Multiply both sides by 4:

(4 (-5 x - 8))/4 = -2×4 (6 x + 3)

(4 (-5 x - 8))/4 = 4/4×(-5 x - 8) = -5 x - 8:

-5 x - 8 = -2×4 (6 x + 3)

4 (-2) = -8:

-5 x - 8 = -8 (6 x + 3)

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

-5 x - 8 = -48 x - 24

Add 48 x to both sides:

48 x - 5 x - 8 = (48 x - 48 x) - 24

48 x - 48 x = 0:

48 x - 5 x - 8 = -24

48 x - 5 x = 43 x:

43 x - 8 = -24

Add 8 to both sides:

43 x + (8 - 8) = 8 - 24

8 - 8 = 0:

43 x = 8 - 24

8 - 24 = -16:

43 x = -16

Divide both sides of 43 x = -16 by 43:

(43 x)/43 = (-16)/43

43/43 = 1:

Answer:  x = (-16)/43
