Answer:
It's table D
Step-by-step explanation:
I just took the test.
X = height of pole (in meters)
With respect to the 50 degree angle, the side x is the opposite leg. It is the leg furthest from the reference angle. The hypotenuse is 5 meters.
The trig function sine ties together the opposite and hypotenuse
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(50) = x/5
5*sin(50) = x .... multiply both sides by 5
x = 5*sin(50)
------------------
Since x = 5*sin(50) isn't listed as an answer choice, let's try using cosine. We can't use it right away because we don't know the adjacent side. What we can do is change the reference angle. The missing angle of the triangle is 90-50 = 40 degrees. Let's make the 40 degree angle the reference angle
So x is now the adjacent side with respect to the 40 degree reference angle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The hypotenuse stays at 5.
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = x/5
5*cos(40) = x
x = 5*cos(40)
This expression is listed. The answer is choice B
Answer:
The Company AB must sell 116 computers to break even
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
-----> equation A
----> equation B
where
C is the cost function
R is the revenue function
x is the number of computers sold
we know that
Break even is when the cost is equal to the revenue
so
equate equation A and equation B
Solve for x
subtract 1/4x both sides
Divide by 1.25 both sides
therefore
The Company AB must sell 116 computers to break even
Maintaining the same width of the compass as AB, draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the afternoon drawn from N in a point
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the equation of the line:
put it in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
You already have m = 2, so y = 2x + b.
Then, since you know (1, 3) is a solution so you can plug x = 1 and y = 3 into the equation to find out what b is.
3 = 2 * 1 + b
3 = 2 + b
1 = b
This means the equation of the line is y = 2x + 1.
Then, since you're trying to find out what y is when x = 2, you can plug in x = 2 into the equation:
y = 2 * 2 + 1
y = 4 + 1
y = 5
5 is the answer
