Answer:

sin θ = √17 / 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean identity:

1 + cot² θ = csc² θ

1 + (-4)² = csc² θ

17 = csc² θ

csc θ = ±√17

sin θ = ±1 / √17

cot θ < 0 and cos θ < 0, so θ is in the second quadrant.  Therefore, sin θ > 0.

sin θ = 1 / √17

Or, as a proper fraction:

sin θ = √17 / 17

Answer:

sin θ = 0.2426.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cot and cos are both negative in the second quadrant.

cot θ = 1 / tan θ = -4 so tan θ = -1/4.

θ =  165.96 degrees

sin θ = 0.2426.

Answer:

y = - \frac{2}{5} (x - 5)² + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a quadratic in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k ) = (5, 7 ) , then

y = a(x - 5)² + 7

To find a substitute (10, - 3 ) into the equation

- 3 = a(10 - 5)² + 7 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

- 10 = 5²a = 25a ( divide both sides by 25 )

\frac{-10}{25} = a , that is

a = - \frac{2}{5}

y = - \frac{2}{5} (x - 5)² + 7 ← in vertex form

How many solutions does the equation have? 5(w−1)−2=5w+7<br><br>A.0 B.1 C.infinitely many
bogdanovich [222]
5(w - 1) - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 5 - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 7 = 5w + 7
5w - 5w = 7 + 7
0 = 14 (incorrect)

there are no solutions to this system...0 solutions
