let the other number be q

the sum of the two numbers = 2

means

$p + q = 3$

expressing q in terms of p

$q = 3 - p$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let alpha be the unknown angle. We can set up our sine law as follows:

$\frac{ \sin( \alpha ) }{5 \: m} = \frac{ \sin(42) }{3.6 \: m }$

$\sin( \alpha ) = \frac{5 \: m}{3.6 \: m} \times \sin(42) = 0.929$

Solving for alpha,

$\alpha = arcsin(0.929) = 68 \: degrees$

Multiply each set of numbers and match it with it’s product

Answer:

1. $1. (\frac{5}{16}) (-2) (-4) (\frac{-4}{5})= -2 \\2. (2\dfrac{3}{5}) (\frac{7}{9})=(\frac{91}{45})\\3. (\frac{2}{3})(-4)(9)= -24\\4. (\frac{-3}{4}) (\frac{7}{8})=(\frac{-21}{32})$

Step-by-step explanation:

These are simple multiplication questions of fractions. We multiply numerator with numerators and denominators with denominators. If numerator and denominator is both divisible by same number we can divide them for simplification.

1. $(\frac{5}{16}) (-2) (-4) (\frac{-4}{5})$

$=(\frac{-10}{16}) (-4) (\frac{-4}{5})\\=(\frac{40}{16}) (\frac{-4}{5})\\=(\frac{-160}{80}) \\dividing\,\, numerator\,\, and\,\, denominator\,\, by\,\, 80\,\,\\= -2$
