Answer:

a) h = 15

b) x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a) set up a proportion:

5 = h

8 24

cross-multiply:

8h = 120

h = 15

b) x + 5 = x + 5 + 15

5x + 1 5x + 1 + 35

cross-multiply:

(x + 5)(5x + 36) = (5x + 1)(x + 20)

5 $x^{2}$ + 61x + 180 = 5 $x^{2}$ + 101x + 20

180 = 40x + 20

160 = 40x

x = 4

Which of the following statements is false?

Tasya [4]

Answer:

B. FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

A. $(8y^2+2)-(4-2y^2)$

We expand the brackets to get,

$=8y^2+2-4+2y^2$

Group like terms,

$=8y^2+2y^2+2-4$

Simplify,

$=10y^2-2$

TRUE

B. $(y^2-7)+(2y+2)$

Rearrange the terms,

$=y^2+2y-7+2$

Simplify,

$=y^2+2y-5$

$(y^2-7)+(2y+2)\ne y^2-9$

FALSE

$(y^2-7)+(2y^2+3)$

Group like terms,

$=y^2+2y^2-7+3$

Simplify,

$=3y^2-4$

TRUE

D. $(y^3-y)-(y^2+4)$

Expand brackets

$=y^3-y-y^2-4$

Rewrite in descending powers of y,

$=y^3-y^2-y-4$

TRUE

If 0 lies in the quadrant IV. What can be the value of cos 0?

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

If 0 lies in the quadrant IV. What can be the value of cos 0 ? The angle 0 does not lie in any of the four quadrants, it lands directly in between quadrants I and IV. The value of cos 0 is always 1.
