Answer:

4.167%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: It was predicted that it will take 23 minutes to drive to grandma's house but it actually takes 24 minutes.

To find: percent error

Solution:

Predicted time = 23 minutes

Actual time = 24 minutes

Error is the difference between Approximate and Exact Value. Percentage Error is used to compare an estimate value to an exact value.

Error = 24 - 23 = 1 minute

Percent error = (error/actual time) × 100

= 4.167%

Triangle X Y Z is shown. Angle Y X Z is a right angle. The length of Y X is 12 inches and the length of X Z is 10 inches. Angle

The best approximation for the measure of angle XYZ is 39.8° ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the trigonometry ratios in the right triangle ABC, where B is the right angle, AC is the hypotenuse, AB and BC are the legs of the triangle

The trigonometry ratios of the angle BAC, the opposite side to this angle is BC and the adjacent side to it is AB are

  • sin(BAC)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}=\frac{BC}{AC}
  • cos(BAC)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}=\frac{AB}{AC}
  • tan(BAC)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}=\frac{BC}{AB}

In Δ XYZ

∵ ∠ YXZ is a right angle

∴ The hypotenuse is YZ

∵ The adjacent side to ∠XYZ is XY

∵ The opposite side to ∠XYZ is XZ

∵ YX = 12 units

∵ XZ = 10 units

- Use tan ratio to find the measure of the angle because you

   have the adjacent and opposite sides of the angle XYZ

∵ m∠XYZ is x

∵ tan(x)=\frac{XZ}{XY}

∴ tan(x)=\frac{10}{12}

- To find x use the inverse of tan(x)

∵ x=tan^{-1}(\frac{10}{12})

∴ x = 39.8°

∴ m∠XYZ = 39.81°

The best approximation for the measure of angle XYZ is 39.8°

60 points answer asap
kow [346]

The point slope form of a line is written as y - y1 = m(x -x1)

Where m is the slope and x1 and y1 are the points on the line.

You are told the slope is 3 and the point is (2,-1/2)

x1 is 2 and y1 is -1/2

Replace those in the equation to get:

y- (-1/2) = 3(x-2)

Simplify to get the final answer:

y + 1/2 = 3(x-2)

If m = 5 and n = -2, evaluate 3m - 4n and n2 - m and find the product of the two expressions.
ddd [48]

Hence the correct answer is C) -23

Further explanation:

We have to put the values of m and n into both expression first separately and then multiply the answers.

Given expressions are:

Exp\ 1:3m-4n\\Exp\ 2: n^2-m

The values are:

m=5\\n=-2

Putting the values in expression 1:

3m-4n\\=3(5)-4(-2)\\=15+8\\=23

Putting the values of m and n in second expression

n^2-m\\=(-2)^2-5\\=4-5\\=-1

Multiplying both expressions:

(3m-4n)(n^2-m)=23* (-1)=-23

Hence the correct answer is C) -23

Solve the inequality<br> 3 + 9x &gt;4(x+7)<br> pls help
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

x<5

Step-by-step explanation:

the greater sign will firstly be changed to = for better solving so we obtain

3+9x=4(x+7)by opening bracket

3+9x=4x+28

9x-4x=28-3

5x=25

divide all through by 5x

we obtain

x=5

the greater sign change here

which is x<5
