Answer:

Value of x = 25

Step-by-Step Explanation:

~ Knowing that, in a right triangle ~

sin(40-x)=cos(3x) ⇒

sin(40-x)=sin(90-3x) ⇒

40 - x = 90 - 3x ⇒

40 - x +3x=90 - 3x +3x =>

40+2x=90 =>

2x=50 =>

x = 25

Now it is proven to be that,

x = 25

If a boat depreciates in value according to the simple interest formula Y=20,000(.92)^2 find the rate of decay. Write as a perce

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Rate of Decay = 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The decay formula is:

$F=P(1-r)^t$

Where F is the final value (here, it is given as "Y")

P is the initial value (here, given as 20,000)

r is the rate of decay (what we need to find)

t is the time (given as 2)

Comparing both the equations:

$F=P(1-r)^t\\Y=20,000(0.92)^2$

We see that:

1 - r =0.92

We solve for "r":

1 - 0.92 = r

0.08 = r

The rate of decay is 0.08, as a percentage, we need to multiply by 100, so we have:

0.08 * 100 = 8%

Rate of Decay = 8%

Which expression is equivalent to √48x5, if x> 0?

Lerok [7]

Answer:

C. 4x²√(3x)

Step-by-step explanation:

if x > 0

$\sqrt{48x^{5}} =\sqrt{48} \times \sqrt{x^{5}}$

$=\sqrt{16\times 3} \times \sqrt{x^{4}\times x}$

$=\sqrt{16} \times \sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{x^{4}} \times \sqrt{x}$

$=4\times \sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{\left( x^{2}\right)^{2} } \times \sqrt{x}$

$=4\times \sqrt{3} \times x^{2}\times \sqrt{x}$

$=4\times x^{2} \times \sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{x}$

$=4\times x^{2}\times \sqrt{3x}$

Solve for C and please show work

Zanzabum

Use the law of cosines:

c² = 8² + 11² - 2•8•11 cos(37°)

c² ≈ 44.4402

c ≈ 6.66634
