Answer:

tan(θ) = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between secant and tangent is ...

1 +tan² = sec²

The the tangent of the angle is ...

tan(θ) = √(sec²(θ) -1)

tan(θ) = √((5/3)² -1) = √(16/9)

tan(θ) = 4/3

The midpoint of segment AB is (-7, 10) and endpoint A is located at (3, -1). Find the other endpoint B. Show all work.

Answer:

$B(-17,21)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of two points is the average of the x coordinates and the average of the y coordinates.

Given

A(3, -1)

and we let the other end point B be B(x,y)

and midpoint is (-7,10)

So, the average of 3 and x is -7, and

the average of -1 and y is 10

We can solve for x first:

$\frac{3+x}{2}=-7\\3+x=2*-7\\3+x=-14\\x=-14-3\\x=-17$

and now solving for y:

$\frac{-1+y}{2}=10\\-1+y=2*10\\-1+y=20\\y=20+1\\y=21$

So, the other point B is:

$B(-17,21)$

If P(x)=x^2-1 and q(x)=5(x-1), which expression is equivalent to (p-q)(x)

zheka24 [161]

Okay so you do p(x) -q(x) and you get (x)^2-5x hope this helps. (Also hope that trigonometry I'm taking comes through lol)

Enter the value of C when the expression 21.2x+c is equivalent to 5.3(4x-2.6)

likoan [24]

Make the equations equal to each other to find x.

21.2x+c=5.3(4x-4.6)

Now distribute.

21.2x+c=21.2x-24.38

So c= -24.38
