Find the length of __ JK Round answer to nearest tenth.

Mathematics
1 answer:
PIT_PIT [208]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the law of Cosines which is expressed as

a² = b² + c² - 2abCosA

Where a,b and c are the length of each side of the triangle and A is the angle corresponding to a. Likening the expression to the given triangle, it becomes

JK² = JL² + KL² - 2(JL × KL)Cos10

JK² = 61² + 53² - 2(61 × 53)Cos10

JK² = 3721 + 2809 - 6466Cos10

JK² = 6530 - 6367.767

JK² = 162.233

Taking square root of both sides of the equation, it becomes

JK = √162.233

JK = 12.73 to the nearest tenth

Graph y = x2 + 2. Identify the vertex of the graph. Tell whether it is a minimum or maximum
Leona [35]
Vertex is -b/2a. The variable b=2 and a=2. That finds the x coordinate of the vertex. Then to find the y coordinate you just plug the number you got for x (-1/2) into the equation. Like so:
y = 2x+2
y = 2(-1/2)+2
y = -1+2
y = 1
So your vertex is ( -1/2, 1 )
To graph your vertex you take your x coordinate (-1/2) and find it on the x axis of the graph (horizontal line). Then do the same for y (1) (on the vertical axis.
Now that you have your vertex graphed you can find out if it is minimum or maximum by looking at the direction in which the slope is going. If it goes in the positive direction (up) then it is a minimum since that is the lowest point that the line touches. If it is maximum it is opposite. The line faces down and the highest point the line touches is that point.

Sarah invested £12000 in a unit trust 5 years ago, the value of the unit trust increased by 7% per annum for each of the last 3
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The current price of the unit trust =  £13,831.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it increased 7% per annum in last three years and decreased by 3% per annum before that, it implies that the unit trust decreased by 3% per annum for the first 2 years and then increased by 7% per annum for the next 3 years in the total 5 year period

The invested after 2 years = 12,000*(1-0.03)^2 = £11,290.8

This amount then grows by 7% for the next 3 years making it = 11,290.80*(1+0.07)^3 =  £13,831.7155 = £13,831.72 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

The current price of the unit trust =  £13,831.72 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

The width of Estelle's rectangular living room is 4 meters, and the distance between opposite corners is 7 meters. What is the l
Crank

Answer:

5.7 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Image a rectangle being cut diagonally in half, that would lead to two triangles. We can use the pythagorean theorem to find the missing side.

7 is the hypotenuse and 4 is the side length

4^2+x^2=7^2

16+x^2=49

sqrx=sqr(49-16)

x=sqr33

x=5.74

Rounded to the nearest tenth is 5.7

Standard printer paper has a thickness of 0.1mm. write an equation for a function that should approximately the thickness of a s
ladessa [460]
Folding a paper will make it thickness become double from it before.
Unfolded paper has 1 thickness
1 times folded paper has 2 thickness
2 times folded paper has 4 thickness
3 times folded paper has 8 thickness

From here it is clear that the pattern is 2^{n}. SInce the paper is 0.1mm, then the function would be:
f(n)= 2^{n} x 0.1mm
