I think 60°
these angles are very confusing sorry!
Answer:
53°
Step-by-step explanation:
17² = 18² + 20² - 2(18)(20) cos Q
289 = 324 + 400 - 720 cos Q
289 = 724 - 720 cos Q
-435 = -720 cos Q
0.6042 = cos Q
Q = 52.83
from the given equation
X+Y=20-->i
X-Y=14--->ii
add eq i and eq ii
2x=34
x=17
putting the value of x=17 in eq i
17+y=20
then y = 3 so the right answer is
17 and 3
Memorize the definition of standard deviation: the sd is the square root of the average of the squared deviations of the mean. Wow. Let's do it.
Step 1. First we need the mean. That's easy. Add them up and divide by the count. Check if you get 16.88/5 = 2.81333.
Step 2. Now we're going to subtract this from each of the values, and square the result. Don't worry about negative signs, the squaring will get rid of those. Example for the first number:
(1 - 2.813)^2 = 3.29
The list of numbers I get is (rounded, in reality round as little as possible):
3.29, 2.60, 1.41, 2.35, 1.66, 6.18
Step 3: Add them all up. I get 17.49.
Step 4: Divide by the count of numbers. 17.49/6 = 2.91
Step 5: Take the square root from this result. SQRT(2.91) = 1.707305
TIP: Use excel to do all these steps, then run the set of numbers through Excel's built-in sd function (called STDEV.P) and see that you get the same result!
Answer: The goal was $500
======================================================
Work Shown:
x% = x/100
175% = 175/100 = 1.75
Let g be the goal, which is the amount of money the club wanted to raise
175% of goal = 175% of g = 1.75g
The expression 1.75g represents how much money was actually raised, which was $875. Set the two expressions equal to each other. Solve for g
1.75g = 875
g = 875/1.75 ....... divide both sides by 1.75
g = 500
The club's goal was to raise $500
Note how 75% of $500 is 0.75*500 = 375
When they raised 175% of the goal, this means they went 75% overboard and added on 375 additional dollars (on top of the 500 they wanted). So they got to 500+375 = 875 which lines up with the instructions. This helps verify the answer.
Or we can see that 1.75*g = 1.75*500 = 875 which helps confirm the answer as well.
