The temperature decreased by 28%

Step-by-step explanation:

How did the temperature change if :

  • At first it decreased by 60%
  • Then increased by 80%

Assume that the temperature before decreasing is 100%

∵ The temperature before decreasing = 100%

∵ It decreased by 60%

→  Before decreasing  :  decreasing  :    after decreasing

→  100%                         :  60%              :    100% - 60% = 40%

∴ The temperature after decreasing = 40%

Assume that the temperature after decreasing is 100%

∵ The temperature after decreasing = 100%

∵ It increased by 80%

By using the ratio method

→  After decreasing  :  increasing  :    after increasing

→  100%                      :  80%             :   100% + 80% = 180%

→  40%                        :                       :   x%

By using cross multiplication

∴ 100% × x% = 40% × 180%

- Divide both sides by 100%

∴ x% = \frac{(40)(180)}{100}

∴ x% = 72%

∵ At first the temperature = 100%

∵ At last the temperature = 72%

∵ The first the temperature > the last the temperature

∴ The decreasing in temperature = 100% - 72% = 28%

The temperature decreased by 28%

Determine whether a triangle can be formed with the given side lengths. If so, use Heron's formula to find the area of the trian
kipiarov [429]
Triangle inequality rule states that the sum of eachpair of sides must be greater than the third sides.
 240 + 123 > 207 true
240 + 207 > 123 true
123 + 207 > 240 true

A = √(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))
s is the semi-perimeter (a + b + c)/2
s = (240 + 123 + 207)/2
s = 285
A = √(285*(285-249)(285-123)(285-207))
A = 12,730 units^2

The tangent and secant functions are undefined for the same values true or false
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

tanθ = 1/cotθ

cotθ = 0 when θ = ±(1/2)π, ±(3/2)π, … ±[(2n+1)/2]π.

∴ tanθ is undefined when θ = ±[(2n+1)/2]π.

secθ = 1/cosθ

cosθ = 0 when θ = ±(1/2)π, ±(3/2)π, , …, ±[(2n+1)/2]π.

∴ secθ is undefined when θ = ±[(2n+1)/2]π.

The tangent and secant functions are undefined for the same values of θ.
