Another two step equation ... 1/3y+1/4=5/12

1 answer:

3 0

Multiply it all by 12 so it's easier to do. -> 4y + 3 = 5. Now subtract 3 from each side. 4y = 2 and finally divide by 4 and you get y is equal to 1/2 or .5

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Part A: (1/2)m

Part B: (1/3rd)b and 3mx

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of each baseball is=$m

Price of other equipment are=$b collectively

Total amount He spent on purchasing equipment is =(m+b)$

Part A:

in part A the amount on purchasing other equipment than baseball is getting doubled i.e. $2b  then value of m will be (1/2)half of the total amount spent on purchasing baseball i.e. (1/2)m

Part B:

in part B the amount spent on purchasing baseball is getting tripled i.e. 3m, then value of b(amount of purchasing other equipment) is (1/3rd) of total amount spent on purchasing other equipment and value of mx will be 3mx

Hi there!

What we need to know:

The three main trigonometric ratios are sine, cosine and tangent:

$\displaystyle sin\theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ $\displaystyle cos\theta=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ $\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

"Opposite" refers to the side opposite the angle that is not the hypotenuse.

"Hypotenuse" refers to the side opposite the right angle of a right triangle.

"Adjacent" refers to the side next to the angle that is not the hypotenuse.

"θ" is read as "theta". It just represents the angle.

Keep in mind that these three ratios only apply to right triangles.

You can use the mnemonic "soh-cah-toa" to help you remember these ratios.

First question

For the first question, we're given the angle with a measure of 56 degrees and the length of the hypotenuse. We must calculate a, which represents the side adjacent to the given angle.

Given the hypotenuse and the adjacent side, we know that we must use the cosine ratio:

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

Plug in the given information:

$\displaystyle cos56=\frac{a}{13}$
