Answer:

43.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

Cosine rule,

From the diagram attached,

x² = y²+z²-2yxcos∅.................... Equation 1

where ∅ = ∠YXZ

Given: x = 8.7 m, y = 10.4 m, z = 12.4 m

Substitute these values  into equation 1

8.7² = 10.4²+12.4²-[2×10.4×12.4cos∅]

75.69 = (108.16+153.76)-(257.92cos∅)

75.69 = 261.92-257.92cos∅

collect like terms

257.92cos∅ = 261.92-75.69

257.92cos∅ = 186.23

Divide both sides by the coefficient of cos∅

cos∅ = 186.23/257.92

cos∅ = 0.722

Find the cos⁻¹ of both side.

∅ = cos⁻¹(0.7220)

∅ = 43.78°

∅ = 43.8°

Nth term of this sequence 1, 10, 19, 28
mestny [16]

Answer:

The nth term of the sequence is

<h2>9n - 8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence above is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

A(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

From the question

a = 1

d = 10 - 1 = 9 or 19 - 10 = 9 or 28 - 19 = 9

So the nth term of the sequence is

A(n) = 1 + (n - 1)9

= 1 + 9n - 9

= 9n - 8

<h3>A(n) = 9n - 8</h3>

Hope this helps you

A baseball player on a professional baseball team has 207 hits in 575 at-bats. What
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

9/25

Step-by-step explanation:

find a number that both the top and bottom are divisible by,

23 is the greatest common division we can make such that the top and bottom remain whole numbers

so,

\frac{207 }{575} ÷23

=(207/23)÷(575/23)

=\frac{9}{25}
