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

Solve the inequality and graph the solution<br> 4x-5&gt;7
ohaa [14]

Answer:

x > 3

interval notation: (3, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality statement: 4x - 5 > 7,

The goal is to isolate x and find its solution.

Start by adding 5 to both sides:

4x - 5 + 5 > 7 + 5

4x > 12

Divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 > 12/4

x > 3

The solution can also be expressed in the following interval notation:

(3, ∞).

In terms of graphing, it involves an empty circle on the endpoint, x = 3, as it is not included as a solution. The solution to the given inequality statement must be greater than 3.

Christian is rewriting an expression of the form y = ax2 + bx + c in the form y = a(x – h)2 + k. Which of the following must be
notsponge [240]
"h and k cannot both equal zero" -- yes, it can. if the vertex of a parabola is at (0, 0), there's nothing incorrect/invalid about that!!

"k and c have the same value" -- k and c do not have the same value. "k" is the y-value of the vertex and c is the constant in your quadratic equation, and the constant is not necessarily the y-value.

"the value of a remains the same" -- this is true. the a's in your equations are the same values, because the a-value is the coefficient of the x-variable in both equations. y = a(x - h)^2 and y = ax^2 -- both of these have a applying to your x-variables.

"h is equal to one half -b" -- this isn't true. the formula for calculating the x value of the vertex (h is the x-value of the vertex) is h = (-b/2a). -b/2a is not the same as one half -b because this answer choice doesn't involve the a-value.
