Remark

I'm not sure I know what you mean, but I will answer trying to interpret it so it fits the description of the question.

Step One: Set up the equation. The normal way of solving this would be to use the Cos function.

Cos(theta) = Adjacent / hypotenuse = x/8 Multiply both sides by 8

8*cos(theta) = x Theta = 35

8*cos(35) = x This is about as simple a way as is possible.

6.553 = the height of the sale.

Step Three: try using the reciprocal

1 / cos(35)= hypotenuse / adjacent

1/0.8191 = 8/x cross multiply

x = 0.8191 * 8

x = 6.553

Regina spent $45.50 over 612 months on music downloads.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

.07 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question all you need to do is divide the money spent by the amount of months. 45.50/612=0.0743464052 but since you cant spend .0043464052 of a cent we have to change the answer to .07. To check our answer is right all we need to do is multiply 0.0743464052 by 612=45.499999 so we know the answer is correct.

Solve this please with steps b^4-3b^3-10b^2
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There's no "solving" to be done because its an expression, but im assuming the question wants you to factor.

b^4-3b^3-10b^2

First, factor out a b^2

b^2(b^2-3b-10)

Factor the trinomial. What two numbers multiply to equal -10 but add to equal -3? They are -5 and +2

b^2((b-5)(b+2))
