The steering wheel on Becky’s car has a 16-inch diameter, and its center is at (0, 0). Point X at the top of the wheel has coord

inates (0, 8). To turn left off her street, Becky must rotate the steering wheel by 300°. Find the coordinates of X when the steering wheel is rotated. Round to the nearest tenth.

Rotating the steering wheel left 300 degrees is the same as turning it right 60 degrees.  Well, not if you're driving, but the same as far as where the points on the wheel end up.

In polar coordinates X is P(8, 90°), which is how I'll write magnitude 8, angle 90 degrees.  In rectangular coordinates that's (8 cos 90°, 8 sin 90°) = (0,8) as we're told.

After rotation by 300° the angle of X is 90° + 300° = 390° so our coordinates are

P(8, 390°) = (8 cos 390°, 8 sin 390°) = (8 cos 30°, 8 sin 30°)

= (8 (√3/2), 8 (1/2)) = (4√3, 4)

Answer:  (4√3, 4)

I'll leave the rounding to you; I hate ruining a nice exact answer with an approximation.

As we see we would have reached the same 30° point if we had rotated -60° instead of 300°.

F (x) = x^2 + 2x - 5<br> g(x) = 2x + 4<br> What is (f• g)(x)?
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a composite function, f(g(x)). This means, working from the inside function to the outside, we will take the function g and plug it in for x in the f function. g(x) = 2x + 4. We will plug that into f(x) and evaluate f(2x+4):

f(g(x))=(2x+4)^2+2(2x+4)-5 and I imagine your teacher has you simplify completely. We FOIL and distribute to get

f(g(x))=4x^2+16x+16+4x+8-5 which, by combining like terms, give us

f(g(x))=4x^2+20x+19

Part A: Find a rational number that is between 7.7 and 7.9. Explain why it is rational. (2 points)
8_murik_8 [283]
A rational number is any number that can be written as the ratio between two other numbers i.e. in the form \frac{a}{b}

Part A:
An easy choice that makes sense is 7.8, right in the middle. To prove that it's rational we need to write it as a ratio. In this case we have 7.8=\frac{78}{10}

Part B:
We need a number that can't be written as a ratio (because it neither terminates nor repeats). Some common ones are \sqrt{2}, e, \phi and \pi so it makes sense to try and use those to build our number. In this case \frac{11\sqrt{2}}{5}\approx7.78 works nicely.

The temperature was 19 degrees Fahrenheit on Monday and 31 degrees Fahrenheit on Tuesday. How much did the temperature rise?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

31-19=12°F

12°F

Step-by-step explanation

If it was 19 degrees on Monday and 31 degrees on Tuesday you have to see how much did it go up in temp. So..

the difference between 19 and 31 is 12, so that means it went up by 12°F.

Which fraction is equivalent to 2/5?  <br> A. 4/10 <br> B. 2/10   <br> C. 1/2   <br> D. 4/6
Lelechka [254]
Hey there James!

So, just remember, 2/5 is almost half of 1.

When it is almost half of 1, this means that it would have to be 2.5/5

This would mean that 4/10 would be your answer, because it is almost half of 1 also.

Hope this helps.
