Using the law of cosine for Triangle KJL, we can write:

j^{2} = k^{2} + l^{2}-2(k)(l)cos(J)  \\  \\ 
2(k)(l)cos(J)=k^{2} + l^{2}- j^{2} \\  \\ 
cos(J)= \frac{k^{2} + l^{2}- j^{2}}{2(k)(l)}

Using the values of k,j and l, we can write:

cos(J)= \frac{ 4^{2} + (2.89)^{2} - 3^{2} }{2(4)(2.89)}  \\  \\ 
cos(J)= 0.664 \\  \\ 
J= cos^{-1}(0.664) \\  \\ 
J=48.39

Rounding to nearest integer, the measure of angle J will be 48 degrees.
So option B gives the correct answer

Answer: option B. 48°

Explanation:


1) Data:
side j: 3 in

side k: 4in
side l: 2.89 in
angle J: ?

2) Law of cosines

j² = k² + l² - 2kl cos(J)

⇒ 3² = 4² + (2.89)² - 2(4)(2.89)cos(J)

⇒ cos(J) = [16 + 8.3521 - 9] / (23.12)

⇒cos(J) = 0.66402
⇒ J = arc cosine (0.66402) ≈ 48.39°

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: a) 6700    b) 2233

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

(-67)*(-99)+(-67)*(-1)=\\(-67)*((-99)+(-1))=\\(-67)*(-100)=\\6700

b)

29*(80-3)=\\(30-1)*(80-3)=\\30*80+(-1)*80+(-3)*30+(-1)*(-3)=\\2400-80-90+3=\\2403-170=\\2233

PLS HELP ASAP!! ALGEBRA 9!!<br> 4.29-x+36=102-2.52x+2
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

  x = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation is :

4.2(9-x)+36=102-2.5(2x+2)

→distribute 4.2 and -2.5 in parenthesis

4.2(9 - x) + 36 = 102 -2.5(2x + 2)

37.8 - 4.2x +36 = 102 -5x -5

→  have terms with x = terms without x

Keep the terms you need the way they are, and move the terms you need on the other side of equal sign with changed sign.

4.2(9 - x) + 36 = 102 -2.5(2x + 2)

37.8 - 4.2x +36 = 102 -5x -5

 - 4.2x  +5 x  = - 37.8 - 36 + 102 - 5

→ Combine like terms

             0.8x  = 23.2

→ Divide both sides by 0.8

                    x = 29
