Answer:

The answer is:

\bold{c\approx 20.2\ units}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In △ABC:

m∠A=15°

a=10 and

b=11

To find:

c = ?

Solution:

We can use cosine rule here to find the value of third side c.

Formula for cosine rule:

cos A = \dfrac{b^{2}+c^{2}-a^{2}}{2bc}

Where  

a is the side opposite to \angle A

b is the side opposite to \angle B

c is the side opposite to \angle C

Putting all the values.

cos 15^\circ = \dfrac{11^{2}+c^{2}-10^{2}}{2\times 11 \times c}\\\Rightarrow 0.96 = \dfrac{121+c^{2}-100}{22c}\\\Rightarrow 0.96 \times 22c= 121+c^{2}-100\\\Rightarrow 21.25 c= 21+c^{2}\\\Rightarrow c^{2}-21.25c+21=0\\\\\text{solving the quadratic equation:}\\\\c = \dfrac{21.25+\sqrt{21.25^2-4 \times 1 \times 21}}{2}\\c = \dfrac{21.25+\sqrt{367.56}}{2}\\c = \dfrac{21.25+19.17}{2}\\c \approx 20.2\ units

The answer is:

\bold{c\approx 20.2\ units}

A polynomial p has zeros when I = 0.2 = -
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

p(x) = (5x - 1) (x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

I apologize if I couldn't answer correctly, the question was a bit hard to understand because of the formatting.

Also I didn't see my answer in the list of answer choices but here it is:

if the polynomial has zeros at 0.2 and -3 the equation would have to be:

p(x)=(x-0.2)(x+3)

This is because plugging either of those numbers into the polynomial would cause it to equal 0.

(x-0.2) can be simplified by multiplying everything in the parenthesis by 5, getting rid of all of the decimals, making the final answer:

p(x) = (5x - 1) (x + 3)

Someone plz help me
marusya05 [52]
This is a parabola which looks like an inverted U. Its will have a maximum value  when t = 7  as we see from  the vertex form below:-

- t^2 + 14t - 40 
= - ( t - 7)^2 + 49 - 40
= -(t - 7)^2 + 9

There is an axis of symmetry at  x = 7.

so a is true  since 7 is the maximum value of the function and  its less at t = 6.
c is also true   because  of the symmetry about t = 7
