Answer:
x = -2 or 5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = (x-3)/((x-5)(x+2))
y is undefined when the denominator is zero.
Answer:
0.7 = 70%.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 5 cans, and she will pick 2, so the number of possibilities that she can pick 2 cans is a combination of 5 choose 2:
C(5,2) = 5!(3!*2!) = 5*4/2 = 10
To find how many possibilities there are with at least 1 can of soup, we can find the number of groups that include no cans of soup, and then see how many possibilities complete the total 10:
There are 3 "no-soup" cans, so the number of possibilities is a combination of 3 choose 2:
C(3,2) = 3!/2! = 3
So, there are 3 possibilities that have no cans of soup, so the number of possibilities that have at least 1 can of soup is 10 - 3 = 7
Then, the probability is 7 / 10 = 0.7 = 70%.
#1)
A) b = 10.57
B) a = 22.66; the different methods are shown below.
#2)
A) Let a = the side opposite the 15° angle; a = 1.35.
Let B = the angle opposite the side marked 4; m∠B = 50.07°.
Let C = the angle opposite the side marked 3; m∠C = 114.93°.
B) b = 10.77
m∠A = 83°
a = 15.11
Explanation
#1)
A) We know that the sine ratio is opposite/hypotenuse. The side opposite the 25° angle is b, and the hypotenuse is 25:
sin 25 = b/25
Multiply both sides by 25:
25*sin 25 = (b/25)*25
25*sin 25 = b
10.57 = b
B) The first way we can find a is using the Pythagorean theorem. In Part A above, we found the length of b, the other leg of the triangle, and we know the measure of the hypotenuse:
a²+(10.57)² = 25²
a²+111.7249 = 625
Subtract 111.7249 from both sides:
a²+111.7249 - 111.7249 = 625 - 111.7249
a² = 513.2751
Take the square root of both sides:
√a² = √513.2751
a = 22.66
The second way is using the cosine ratio, adjacent/hypotenuse. Side a is adjacent to the 25° angle, and the hypotenuse is 25:
cos 25 = a/25
Multiply both sides by 25:
25*cos 25 = (a/25)*25
25*cos 25 = a
22.66 = a
The third way is using the other angle. First, find the measure of angle A by subtracting the other two angles from 180:
m∠A = 180-(90+25) = 180-115 = 65°
Side a is opposite ∠A; opposite/hypotenuse is the sine ratio:
a/25 = sin 65
Multiply both sides by 25:
(a/25)*25 = 25*sin 65
a = 25*sin 65
a = 22.66
#2)
A) Let side a be the one across from the 15° angle. This would make the 15° angle ∠A. We will define b as the side marked 4 and c as the side marked 3. We will use the law of cosines:
a² = b²+c²-2bc cos A
a² = 4²+3²-2(4)(3)cos 15
a² = 16+9-24cos 15
a² = 25-24cos 15
a² = 1.82
Take the square root of both sides:
√a² = √1.82
a = 1.35
Use the law of sines to find m∠B:
sin A/a = sin B/b
sin 15/1.35 = sin B/4
Cross multiply:
4*sin 15 = 1.35*sin B
Divide both sides by 1.35:
(4*sin 15)/1.35 = (1.35*sin B)/1.35
(4*sin 15)/1.35 = sin B
Take the inverse sine of both sides:
sin⁻¹((4*sin 15)/1.35) = sin⁻¹(sin B)
50.07 = B
Subtract both known angles from 180 to find m∠C:
180-(15+50.07) = 180-65.07 = 114.93°
B) Use the law of sines to find side b:
sin C/c = sin B/b
sin 52/12 = sin 45/b
Cross multiply:
b*sin 52 = 12*sin 45
Divide both sides by sin 52:
(b*sin 52)/(sin 52) = (12*sin 45)/(sin 52)
b = 10.77
Find m∠A by subtracting both known angles from 180:
180-(52+45) = 180-97 = 83°
Use the law of sines to find side a:
sin C/c = sin A/a
sin 52/12 = sin 83/a
Cross multiply:
a*sin 52 = 12*sin 83
Divide both sides by sin 52:
(a*sin 52)/(sin 52) = (12*sin 83)/(sin 52)
a = 15.11
The correct answer to your question is "A".
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The right triangle on the right side of the figure has a height of 6 (two same sides lengths) and a base of 3.
x is the hypotenuse (side opposite of 90 degree angle).
We can use the pythagorean theorem to find x. The pythagorean theorem tells us to square each leg (height and base) of the triangle and add it. It should be equal to the hypotenuse square.
For this triangle it means, we square 6 and 3 and add it. It should be equal to x squared. Then we can solve. Shown below:

<em>Now we can use property of radical
