pentagon [3]

I’m having a little issue with my Trigonometry homework. The model of this problem does not have a number for the hypotenuse. Th

us, I concluded that the formula needed to answer this isn’t either the adjacent over hypotenuse or opposite over hypotenuse. However, when I try the formula for tangent, the answer (rounded to the nearest tenth) is 64.9. This isn’t an answer given in this worksheet. The possible answers on said sheet are 23.4 or 25.1. If someone could maybe help me out with this, that would be very appreciated!

Answer:

  x ≈ 23.4

Step-by-step explanation:

You are correct that the given information indicates the tangent function is appropriate.

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(59°) = 39/x

Multiply this equation by x/tan(59°) and you get ...

  x = 39/tan(59°)

  x ≈ 39/1.6643 ≈ 23.43

The appropriate answer choice is ...

  x = 23.4

You used p minutes one month on your cell phone. The next month you used 75 fewer minutes. Simplify the expression.
Anestetic [448]
Hi there!

Let's assume that one month is represented by the variable 'm', the amount of minutes you started with is 's', and minutes you spent is 'p'.

So, one month can be represented as 'm=s-p'.

The next month is a bit more tricky. This will incorporate 75 less minutes into the equation. 'm=s-75' can be used to represent this, as we assume that you didn't use any minutes in the first month, and that p=75 in this case.

If you found this especially helpful, I'd appreciate if you'd vote me Brainliest for your answer. I want to be able to assist more users one-on-one, as well as to move up in rank! :)

Lynette wanted to run one mile in eight minutes. To be on pace to reach
natta225 [31]

Answer:

0.25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that she keeps a constant Velocity/ speed,

find the speed she intends to run with, ie total distance/time

\frac{1}{8} miles \: per \: minute

find the distance she travels in two minutes, ie speed multiplied by time.

\frac{1}{8}  \times 2 =  \frac{1}{4 }  = 0.25

Help me i think its add 24 to both sides
umka2103 [35]

It is given in the question that

Steven is solving the equation

3(8-2x)+40=34

He begins with the following two steps.

Step 1: 3(8)+3(-2x)+40=34  Step 2: 24-6x+40=34

And we have to find , what will be the next step in solving the equation.

First we combine the like terms. And the like terms are 24 and 40. So we have to add 24 and 40. And that will be the next step.

So the correct option is the last option.

Which table represents a linear function?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

  • Table 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Table 1</h3>
  • x- values change 1 to 4
  • y- values change inconsistently and repeat at -2

This is <u>not</u> a linear function

<h3>Table 2</h3>
  • x- values change 1 to 4
  • y- values change consistently, with common difference of -2

<u>This is a linear function</u>

<h3>Table 3</h3>
  • x- values change 1 to 4
  • y- values change inconsistently, the difference is not common

This is <u>not</u> a linear function

<h3>Table 4</h3>
  • x- values change 1 to 4
  • y- values change inconsistently, the difference is not common

This is <u>not</u> a linear function
