Answer:

each box has 52 in it

Step-by-step explanation:

first you subtract 288 from 548  =260

this is the total number of nails minus the total 1 inch nails

then you divide 260 by 5 because he has five boxes of 2 inch names which means that you have to account for the even number of nails in each box

Answer:

There were 52 2-inch nails in each box.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of nails in each 2 inch box be = x

As Tony bought 288 other nails and 5 boxes of 2 inch nails with a total purchase of 548 nails, we get the following equation;

288+5x=548

=> 5x=548-288

=> 5x=260

x = 52

Hence, there were 52 2-inch nails in each box.

Find the value of x. Round <br> the nearest tenth.
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

x = 21.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the law of sins

sin 42       sin x

--------- = ----------

22              12

12 sin 42 = 22 sin x

12 sin 42 /22 = sin x

Taking the inverse sin of each side

sin^-1(12/22 sin 42) = sin^-1(sin x)

21.40637223 =x

To the nearest tenth

x = 21.4

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-6,0) and $(0,-24)
motikmotik

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Y2 = -24 and Y1 = 0

X2 = 0 and X1 = -6

Y2-Y1/ X2- X1= -24 - 0/ 0 - (-6) = -4

y= -4x + c

y + 4x= c

The scale of a map is 1 inch to 175 miles the actual distance between Chicago Illinois in Pittsburgh PA is 375 miles find the di
aleksklad [387]

<u>Given</u>:

A map shows some cities in the northern United States. The scale of a map is 1 \ inch: 125 \ miles

The actual distance between Chicago, IL and Pittsburgh, PA is 375 miles.

We need to determine the distance between the two cities on the map.

<u>Distance between the two cities:</u>

The distance between the two cities on the map can be determined by dividing the actual distance by 125 miles.

Thus, we have;

Distance=\frac{375}{125}

Dividing the terms, we get;

Distance = 3

Thus, the distance between the two cities on the map is 3 inch.

What are the x-coordinates for the maximum points in the function f(x) = 4 cos(2x − π) from x = 0 to x = 2π? (1 point) a x = 3 p
Ratling [72]

x-coordinates for the maximum points in any  function  f(x) by f'(x) =0 would be  x = π/2 and x= 3π/2.

<h3>How to obtain the maximum value of a function?</h3>

To find the maximum of a continuous and twice differentiable function f(x), we can firstly differentiate it with respect to x and equating it to 0 will give us critical points.

we want to find x-coordinates for the maximum points in any  function  f(x) by f'(x) =0

Given f(x)= 4cos(2x -π)

f'(x) = 0\\- 4sin(2x -\pi ) =0\\\\sin (2x -\pi ) =0 \\2x -\pi  = k\pi ...  k in Z

In general  x=(k+1)\pi /2

from x = 0 to x = 2π :

when k =0  then  x = π/2

when k =1  then x= π

when k =2  then x= 3π/2

when k =3  then x=2π

Thus, X-coordinates of maximum points are  x = π/2 and x= 3π/2
