Answer:

sin(t) =\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition we know that

sec(t) = \frac{1}{cos(t)}

and

cos ^ 2(t) = 1-sin ^ 2(t)

As sec(t) = -\frac{4}{3}

Then

sec(t) = -\frac{4}{3}\\\\\frac{1}{cos(t)} =-\frac{4}{3}\\\\cos(t) = -\frac{3}{4}

Now square both sides of the equation:

cos^2(t) = (-\frac{3}{4})^2

cos^2(t) = \frac{9}{16}\\\\

1-sin^2(t) =\frac{9}{16}\\\\sin^2(t) =1-\frac{9}{16}\\\\sin^2(t) =\frac{7}{16}\\\\sin(t) =\±\sqrt{\frac{7}{16}}

In the second quadrant sin (t) is positive. Then we take the positive root

sin(t) =\sqrt{\frac{7}{16}}

sin(t) =\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}

Find the number of ways to listen to four CDs from a selection of 8 CDs. A) 1680 B) 336 C) 70 D) 50 pls aslo explain why..
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

a) 1680

<em>The number of ways to listen to four CDs from a selection of 8 CDs = 1680</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given data the number of CD' s n = 8

<em>We have to selected '4' CD' s  from total '8' CD's</em>

<em>By using permutations </em>

<em>The number of ways to listen to four CDs from a selection of 8 CDs.</em>

<em>                          =     </em>8_{P_{4} }<em> </em>

<em>  we know that </em>

           n_{P_{r} } = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}

          8_{P_{4} } = \frac{8!}{(8-4)!} = \frac{8 X 7 X 6 x 5 X 4!}{4!} = 1680

<em>The number of ways to listen to four CDs from a selection of 8 CDs = 1680</em>

Y is directly proportional to the square of x.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The value of y is 847 for x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that y is directly proportional to the square of x

This can be written mathematically as:

y \propto  x^2

Removing the proportionality symbol introduces a proportionality constant in the equation which is denoted by k

y = kx^2

Given that "When x is 5, y is 175"

175 = k (5)^2\\175 = k*25\\k = \frac{175}{25}\\k = 7

Putting the value of k

y = 7x^2

Now putting x = 11

y = 7(11)^2\\y = 7 * 121\\y = 847

Hence,

The value of y is 847 for x=11
