Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's label what we currently have:

$Hypotenuse = x$

$Opposite = 12$

$Adjacent = ?$

Since the answer choices are asking us to use cosine, we will need to use the cosine formula:

$cos=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

It seems like we don't have the adjacent side yet. However, if we use another angle, we can find out what x is. We know one angle is 35°. Since it is a right triangle, the other angle is 90°. Since all triangles add up to 180°, we know that the other angle is 55°. We CAN use cosine to find x if we use the 55° angle.

Let's label our new areas:

$Hypotenuse=x$

$Opposite=?$

$Adjacent=12$

By using the cosine formula, we can now use the two values we have in the equation.

$cos 55=\frac{12}{x}$

-5, 20, -80, 320, ... is a geometric sequence a. Find the common ratio, b. Write its recursive rule c. Write its explicit rule.W

mario62 [17]

In order to find the common ratio, we just need to divide a term by the term that comes before it.

So using the terms 20 and -5, we have:

$\text{ratio}=\frac{20}{-5}=-4$

The recursive rule can be found with the formula:

$a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot q$

Where an is the nth term and q is the ratio. So we have:

$a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot(-4)$

The explicit rule can be written as:

$a_n=a_1\cdot q^{n-1}$

Where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term and q is the ratio. So:

$a_n=-5\cdot(-4)^{n-1}$

A bandleader randomly select's two students out of 100 bandmembers if you and your brother are both bandmembers what is the prob

kherson [118]

<span>There are 100 * 99 = 9900 different ways to choose two students out of 100 bandmembers. You and our brother are 2 of that ways: you being selected first and you being selected second. Therefore the probability that you two are selected is 2 / 9900 = 0,000202. You can also think as the probability of you being selected among 100 bandmembers, which is 1/100, times the probability of your brother being selected among 99 members, which is 1/99 => (1/100) * (1/99) = 1/ (100*99) = 1 / 9900; plus the same for your brother being selected first and you second => [1/9900] * 2 = 2/9900, which is the same calculated above.</span>

So if the question says at most 30 sq ft than most likely the > is going to go this way even if it has a line that symbolizes equal or more so that kinda narrows it down to 2 and 4. The L is -3ft x 2 Id say 4. Hope I helped
