Explain why the equation 5丨x丨-7=7 has only one solution?

Sharon is twice as old as Brian, and in 5 years the sum of their ages will be 25 years. Find their present ages.

Vinil7 [7]

Sharon's age= 2x
Brian's age= x

(2x-5)+(x-5)= 25
3x-10=25
3x=15
x=5
Brian is 5 years old and Sharon is 10

Carlos jogged 5 laps around the school track in 8 minutes. What was his average speed in laps per minute? lap(s) per minute PLEA

Answer:

To solve this problem, you would create two ratios and make them equal to each other, both representing laps:minute or laps/minute! With that being said, laps will be in the numerator, or on top, and minutes will be in the denominator, or the bottom! The first ratio, which we know from the problem, will be 5/8. In order to write the second ratio, we need to come up with something to put in place for what we're solving for. I like to use x. So, we need to find how many laps (x) are run in 1 minute. Remember, laps are on top and minutes are on the bottom. The second ratio would look like x/1. Then we make them equal to each other -> 5/8=x/1. You would then solve this equation by multiplying the right side of the equation by the reciprocal of the denominator! So, it would be 1/1(5/8)=x. Because then multiple the numerators and the denominators -> 1(5)=5 and 1(8)=8! This makes the equation turn into x=5/8! Because x equals the number of laps run in one minute, we can say that Ricky ran 5/8 of a lap in one minute or 0.625 laps in one minute!

Find the exact value

Mnenie [13.5K]

By using properties for trigonometric functions and trigonometric expressions, we find that the exact value of the sine of the angle 5π/12 radians is $\frac{\sqrt{2+\sqrt{3}}}{2}$ .

<h3>How to find the exact value of a trigonometric expression</h3>

Trigonometric functions are trascendent functions, these are, that cannot be described algebraically. Herein we must utilize trigonometric formulae to calculate the exact value of a trigonometric function:

$\sin \frac{5\pi}{12} = \sqrt{\frac{1 - \cos \frac{5\pi}{6} }{2} }$

$\sin \frac{5\pi}{12} = \sqrt{\frac{1 + \cos \frac{\pi}{6} }{2} }$

$\sin \frac{5\pi}{12} = \sqrt{\frac{1 + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} }{2} }$

$\sin \frac{5\pi}{12} = \sqrt{\frac{2+\sqrt{3}}{4} }$

$\sin \frac{5\pi}{12} = \frac{\sqrt{2+\sqrt{3}}}{2}$

By using properties for trigonometric functions and trigonometric expressions, we find that the exact value of the sine of the angle 5π/12 radians is $\frac{\sqrt{2+\sqrt{3}}}{2}$ .

Answer:

The y-axis is upside down, meaning that instead of the values increasing as they go up, they decrease.
