Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We use trig to answer these questions:
sin x = opposite side of a triangle / hypotenuse
cos x = adjacent side / hypotenuse
Construct a right triangle with hypotenuse 4 m and lower angle 68 degrees.
The height of the top of the ladder is then defined by:
sin 68 degrees = height / 4 m, which yields (4 m)(sin 68) = height =
3.71 m
and the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall as follows:
cos 68 degrees = horizontal distance / hypotenuse =
1.50 m
Answer:
C 2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a parabolic function
Notice how we go negative and then positive
y = ax^2 +bx+c
Let x = 0
-5 = a(0) + b(0) +c
c = -5
y = ax^2 + bx -5
Let x = 3
4 = a(3)^2 +b(3) -5
Let x=-3
4 = a(3)^2 -b(3) -5
Add the two equations
4 = a(3)^2 +b(3) -5
4 = a(3)^2 -b(3) -5
----------------------------
8 = 2a (3)^2 - 10
18 = 2 a(9)
18 = 18a
a =1
Solving for b
4 = 1(3)^2 -b(3) -5
4 = 9 -3b -5
4 = 4 -3b
0 = -3b
0 =b
The equation is
y = (x)^2 -5
Letting y = -1
-1 =x^2 -5
Adding 5 to each side
4 = x^2
Taking the square root of each side
±2 = x
x= ±2
Given the choices
Set each binomial equal to zero to solve.
2n + 3 = 0
2n = - 3
n = - 3 / 2
n - 4 = 0
n = 4
So n = -3/2, 4
I have no clue but using division may be an option
Try using a calculator i don't have one on me sorry :(
