We have that
point A(-7,2)  and point B(-1,-4)

Step 1
find the distance AB
d=√[(-4-2)²+(-1+7)²]------------> √[36+36]
d=√72

step 2
find the point M
five-sixths of the distance from AB----------> (5/6)*√72

see the attached figure
AC/AB=x/((5/6)*AB)
6/(AB)=x/((5/6)*AB)--------> 6=6x/5
x=30/6-------> x=5

CB/AB=y/((5/6)*AB)
6/AB=y/((5/6)*AB)---------> 6=6y/5
y=30/6-------> y=5

therefore
the coordinate x of point M is
A(-7,2)
Mx=-7+5=-2

the coordinate y of point M is
A(-7,2)
My=2-5=-3

the point M is (-2,-3)

Determine the principal value of the function: Arc sin(square root of 3/2)
Drupady [299]

Answer:

π/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the principal value of \text{arc sin}(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} )

arc sin means sin inverse. The sin inverse is a one to one function with its range between -\frac{\pi}{2} \textrm{ to } \frac{\pi}{2}

The principal value of the arc sin will lie within the above given range.

value of sin (60) or sin(\frac{\pi}{3}) is \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}.

\frac{\pi}{3} lies between -\frac{\pi}{2}\textrm{ and } \frac{\pi}{2}

So, from here we can say that the Principal Value of Arc sin(square root of 3/2) is π/3

Combine like terms (simplify)
andre [41]
1) 8x-13
2)19r-19s
3)8m-10n
Solve in the parentheses then label the ones with the same variable and solve those setting up the equation with variable first. Do check this I am not perfect.

Hope this helped! ;)

Help asap!!! <br><br> exponential function matching table..?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equations have the form of a geometric sequence

y=ar^x\text{ y=final value, a=initial value, r=common ratio, x=term number}\\ \\ \text{The common ratio is found by dividing any term by the previous term, in this case}\\ \\ r=\frac{1}{3},\ a=27\\ \\ f(x)=27\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^x

What is the value of y?
NeX [460]

The value of y in the triangle is 2√5

The triangle above is a right angle triangle.

Characteristics of a right angle triangle:

  • One of its angle is equals to 90 degrees
  • The sides can be found using Pythagoras theorem.

Using Pythagoras theorem

  • c² = a² + b²

where

c = hypotenuse(longest side)

a and b are the 2 other legs.

Therefore,

6² = 4² + y²

36 = 16 + y²

y² = 36 - 16

y² = 20

y = √20

y = 2√5
