Step One
Find z
All triangles have 180 degrees. No exceptions.
z + 47 + 90 = 180 combine like terms on the left.
z + 137 = 180 subtract 137 from both sides
z = 180 - 137
z = 43 degrees.

Step Two
Use the sine function to find y
Sin(43) = opposite side / hypotenuse
opposite side = 35

sin(43) = 35 / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 35 / sin(43)
y = 35/0.6820
y = 51.32

Solve using cos(x)
Note this problem could have been done in a shorter way.
Cos(47) = adjacent / hypotenuse.
hypotenuse = adjacent / cos(47)
y = 35 / cos(47)
y = 35 / 0.6820
y = 51.32 Both answers agree. It is a good thing to know how to do this question both ways.

1 gallon of batter is poured equally into 4 bowls. How many gallons of batter are in each bowl?

yarga [219]

Answer:

1/4 of a gallon otherwise known as 1 quart.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because you are spliting one thing into four parts so each bowl would have 1/4 of the gallon.

My Notes The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring is given by y(t) = 1 4 cos(5t) where y

ikadub [295]

Answer:

y(0) = 0.25 feet

$y(\frac{1}{4}) = 0.0789 \text{ feet}$

$y(\frac{1}{2}) =-0.2003 \text{ feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring =

$y(t) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5t)$

where y is the displacement in feet and t is the time in seconds.

Here, cos is in radians.

1) t = 0

$y(0) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(0)) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(0) = \frac{1}{4}(1) = \frac{1}{4}$

y(0) = 0.25 feet

2) t = $\frac{1}{4}$

$y(\displaystyle\frac{1}{4}) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(\frac{1}{4})) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(1.25) = \frac{1}{4}(0.31532236) =0.07883059$

$y(\frac{1}{4}) = 0.0789 \text{ feet}$

3) t = $\frac{1}{2}$

$y(\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(\frac{1}{2})) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(2.5) = \frac{1}{4}(-0.80114362) = -0.200285905$

$y(\frac{1}{2}) =-0.2003 \text{ feet}$

The negative sign indicates the opposite direction of displacement.
