Answer:

1/sqrt10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find out cosA using formula (cosA)^2+(sinA)^2=1

The module of cosA= sqrt (1- (-3/5)^2)= sqrt 16/25=4/5

So cosA=-4/5 or cosA=4/5.

Due to the condition 270degrees< A<360 degrees, 0<cosA<1 that's why cosA=4/5.

2) Find sinA/2 using a formula cosA= 1-2sinA/2*sinA/2 where cosA=4/5.

(sinA/2)^2= 0.1

sinA= sqrt 0.1= 1/ sqrt10 or sinA= - sqrt 0.1= -1/sqrt10

But 270°< A< 360°, then 270/2°<A/2<360/2°

135°<A/2<180°, so sinA/2 must be positive and the only correct answer is

sin A/2= 1/sqrt10

Billy wants to make trail mix using almonds, peanuts, and raisins. He wants to mix one part almonds, two parts peanuts, and thre

Y_Kistochka [10]

X = price of the ingredients

so based on the proportion , we can write that :
Almonds needed = x = $ 12 x
peanut needed = 2x = 2x * $ 8 = $ 16x
raisins needed = 3x = 3x * $6 = $ 18x

Equation =
12x + 16x + 18x ≤ $ 23

46x = $23

x = $ 0.5

The pound of mix he can made :

0.5 * 1 pound of almond + 0.5 x * 2 pound of peanuts + 0.5 * 3 pound of raisins

= 3 Pound of mix

The bases of the trapezoid are 6 and 10. The height is 4. Find the area.

ollegr [7]

Answer

b. 32 sq. unit

Step-by-step Explanation

The area of the trapezoid is given by

$A = \frac{1}{2} (b_{1} + b_{2}) \times h$

We substitute the given values into the formula to obtain;

$A = \frac{1}{2}(10 + 6) \times 4$

Simplify

$A = \frac{1}{2} (16) \times 4$

$A = 16 \times 2$
Hence the area is

$A = 36 \: sq \: units$

Graph x<2.

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

A graph showing a range of negative three to two on the x and y axes. A dotted line with arrows at both ends that passes through the x axis at two and runs parallel to the y axis. The graph is shaded to the left of the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality given is x < 2. This means x is less than two are the values that satisfy the equation.

The equation can be written as x=2 to identify the position where the line will pass. The line is dotted and will pass through x=2 to be parallel with the y-axis.

The second and third answers are not correct because the line should not be solid.

The first answer is not correct because the shaded part should be to the left of the line.
