Answer:

5/13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the mnemoic SOH CAH TOA, we know that ...

... Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

In this triangle, that means ...

... cos(A) = AC/AB

We are given the value of AC, but we need to find the value of AB. We can do that using the Pythagorean theorem:

... AB² + AC² +BC²

... AB² = 15² +36² = 1521 = 39²

... AB = 39

Then ...

... cos(A) = 15/39 = (5·3)/(13·3)

... cos(A) = 5/13

Line JK passes through points J(–3, 11) and K(1, –3). What is the equation of line JK in standard form?
nikitadnepr [17]
You can start with the form
  ∆y(x -x1) -∆x(y -y1) = 0
Here, we have
  ∆y = 11-(-3) = 14
  ∆x = -3-1 = -4
and we can choose (x1, y1) = (1, -3). This gives
  14(x -1) -(-4)(y -(-3)) = 0
  14x +4y -2 = 0
All these terms have a common factor of 2 that we can remove. Adding 1 to the result puts it in standard form:

  7x +2y = 1

11. Find the product of (3x+5) with (2x - 3) in simplest form.
STatiana [176]

Answer:

(3x + 5)(2x - 3) = 6x² + x - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the product of two binomials, we could use the FOIL method.

First

Outer (Outside)

Inner (Inside)

Last

(3x + 5)(2x - 3) = (3x)(2x) + (3x)(-3) + (5)(2x) + (5)(-3) = 6x² - 9x + 10x - 15 = 6x² + x - 15

So the product of the two binomials would be 6x² + x - 15.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying.

Solve the equation <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E2%2B25%3D0" id="TexFormula1" title="x^2+25=0" alt="x^2+25=0" align="abs
SVEN [57.7K]

x = 5i   x =-5i

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+25=0

Rewriting

x^2 - (-25)=0

Writing as the difference of squares

a^2 - b^2= (a-b) (a+b)

where a = x and b = (sqrt(-25)) =±5i

( x-5i) ( x+5i) =0

Using the zero product property

x-5i =0    x+5i =0

x = 5i   x =-5i
