Find the value of the angle θ rounded to 1 DP.
kogti [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sin 21 = \frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}

Sin 21 = \frac{BC}{15}

0.3583 = \frac{BC}{15}

0.3583*15 = BC

BC = 5.3745 = 5.37 m

Tan ∅ = \frac{opposite side}{adjacent side}

Tan ∅ = \frac{4}{5.37}= 0.7448

∅ = tan⁻¹ (0.7448) = 36.67 = 36.7

In an arithmetic sequence, if a2= 5 and a10= 19 find a6
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

a₆ = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₂ = 5 and a₁₀ = 19 , then

a₁ + d = 5 → (1)

a₁ + 9d = 19 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁

8d = 14 ( divide both sides by 8 )

d = 1.75

Substitute d = 1.75 into (1)

a₁ + 1.75 = 5 ( subtract 1.75 from both sides )

a₁ = 3.25

Then

a₆ = 3.25 + 5(1.75) = 3.25 + 8.75 = 12

11. If f(x)=4x-9, what is the equation for f^-1(x)?
FrozenT [24]
F(x) = 4x - 9

let f(x) = y, this implies that  x = f⁻¹(y)

y = 4x - 9           Let us solve for x.

4x - 9 = y

4x = y + 9

x = (y + 9)/4

Recall that x = f⁻¹(y),

x = (y + 9)/4

f⁻¹(y) = (y + 9)/4

That means that for f⁻¹(x)

f⁻¹(x) = (x + 9)/4

Hope this explains it.

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation.–x2 + 5x = 3
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Given the equation - x² + 5x = 3, which can be rewritten as:

- x² + 5x - 3 = 0

where a = -1, b = 5 and c = -3.

Quadratic formula:

\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2\text{ - 4ac}}}{2a}

Now, we just replace the values of a, b and c on the equation above.

\frac{-5\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{5^2\text{ - 4(-1)(3)}}}{2(-1)}

=

\frac{5}{2}\text{ }\pm\text{ }\frac{\sqrt[]{13}}{2}
