Answer: A. 31.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using law of cosine because it is side angle side

a=16

b=21

angle = 116

c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab cosC, let C be the angle given

c^2=(21)^2+(16)^2-2(16)(21) cos(116)

c^2=441+256-672 cos(116)

i used a ti-89 and answered the right side and got

(you can find a ti-89 simulator online, but for problems like this make sure it is in degree mode)

991.585

c^2=991.585

take square root of both sides

=31.4894, which if you round it up it would be 31.5, so the answer would be A

therefore:

a=16

b=21

c=31.5

X+4/4=x/x-2<br> A:{-4,2} <br> B:{-2,4}<br> C:{}
Andreyy89

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is B. {-2,4}</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x, this way:

x + 4/4 = x /x -2

(x + 4) * ((x - 2) = 4 * x

x² - 2x + 4x -8 = 4x

x² - 2x + 4x -8 - 4x = 0

x² - 2x  -8 = 0

(x - 4) * (x +2) = 0

x - 4 = 0

x + 2 = 0

x₁ = 4

x₂ = - 2

<u>The correct answer is B. {-2,4}</u>

What value of a is a solution to this equation?<br> 1=3+a<br> 4
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

1=a4+3

Step 1: Subtract a^4+3 from both sides.

1−(a4+3)=a4+3−(a4+3)

−a4−2=0

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

−a4−2+2=0+2

−a4=2

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

−a4

−1

=

2

−1

a4=−2

Step 4: Take root.

a=±(−2)(

4

)

Answer:

No real solutions.
