Angles C and D are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees. So, if we add 8u-48 to 5u+46, we get 13u-2. We set that equal to 180, so 13u-2=180. Add the two, so 13u=182. Divide the 13, so u=14. To double check, plug in 14 to both expressions. 8(14)-48 and 5(14)+46. 8(14)-48 is 64. 5(14)+46 is 116. If you add 64+116, you get 180, which proves your answer right! So u= 14
Answer:
It simplifies to 2x + 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x, then the expression is
x + 5 + (x - 3)
= x + 5 + x - 3
= x + x + 5 - 3
= 2x + 2.
Answer:
B) a = 6.7, B = 36°, C = 49°
Step-by-step explanation:
Fill in the numbers in the Law of Cosines formula to find the value of "a".
a² = b² + c² -2bc·cos(A)
a² = 4² +5² -2(4)(5)cos(95°) ≈ 44.4862
a ≈ √44.4862 ≈ 6.66980
Now, the law of sines is used to find one of the remaining angles. The larger angle will be found from ...
sin(C)/c = sin(A)/a
sin(C) = (c/a)sin(A)
C = arcsin(5/6.6698×sin(95°)) ≈ 48.31°
The third angle is ...
B = 180° -A -C = 180° -95° -48.31° = 36.69°
The closest match to a = 6.7, B = 37°, C = 48° is answer choice B.
