Step-by-step explanation:

Since, y varies inversely as x.

\therefore \: y =  \frac{k}{x}  \\ (k = constant \: of \: proportionality) \\   \therefore \: xy =  k...(1) \\ plug \: y = 194 \:  \: and \:  \: x =  - 13 \: in \: (1) \\ \therefore \:  - 13 \times 194=  k \\ \therefore \: k =  - 2522 \\ substituting \: k =  - 2522 \: in \: (1) \\ xy =  - 2522...(2) \\ this \: is \: equation \: of \: variation. \\ plug \: x = 50 \: in \: (2) \\ 50 \times y =  - 2522 \\  \therefore \:y =  \frac{ - 2522}{50}  \\   \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \:y =   - 50.44}}

Answer:

∠B ≈ 56.25°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the cosine ratio to solve for B

cosB = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{BC}{AB} = \frac{5}{9}, thus

B = cos^{-1}(\frac{5}{9} ) ≈ 56.25°

Select the statement in if-then form.
SashulF [63]
The correct statement is C. <span>If an angle is an acute angle, then the angle measures less than 90 degrees. 
A and B are obviously incorrect, and D is incorrect because it can be other angle as well, not just acute. </span>

Please help me with this problem, please
Harman [31]

Answer:

sin(x) = 5/13

cos(y) = 5/12

Therefore, sin(x) = cos(y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Trig ratios:

sin(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{H}\\\\\\cos(\theta)=\dfrac{A}{H}\\\\\\tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}

where \theta is the angle, O is the measure of the side opposite the angle, A is the measure of the side adjacent to the angle and H is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle

We have been given the measures of the two legs, so we can find the measure of the hypotenuse by using Pythagoras' Theorem a^2+b^2=c^2

(where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle)

\implies 5^2+12^2=c"\\\\\implies 169=c^2\\\\\implies c=\sqrt{169}\\\\ \implies c=13

Now we can use the trig ratios:

\implies sin(x)=\dfrac{5}{13}

\implies cos(y)=\dfrac{5}{13}

Therefore, sin(x) = cos(y)

Mrs. Davis bought 6 pounds of grades for $18. At this rate, how much would 72 ounces of grapes have cost?
saveliy_v [14]
This the problem we are looking at: 6 pounds/18 = 72 ounces /?
To solve this, we have to make the unit of measurement the same. There are 16 ounces in 1 pound. So, there are 72 ounces in 4.5. To find that you just do 72 divided by 16. This is the new problem we are looking at: 6 pounds/18 = 4.5 pounds/?
To find ?, you must divided 6 divided by 4.5 to find the difference between the two to keep the same rate. That equals 1.33333333. 
What is done to the numerator, you must do to the denominator to keep the same rate so now you divide 18 divided by 1.33333333 which equals 13.5

So for 72 ounces (4.5 pounds) it will cost $13.50

I hope this helps:)
