The product of two consecutive numbers is 182

1 answer:

8 0

2 consecutive numbers....x and x + 1

x(x + 1) = 182
x^2 + x = 182
x^2 + x - 182 = 0
(x - 13)(x + 14) = 0

x - 13 = 0
x = 13

x + 14 = 0
x = -14....not this one because it is negative

x + 1 = 13 + 1 = 14

ur 2 numbers are : 13 and 14

Use the Law of Cosines to find the missing angle. In triangle JKL, j=3in., k=4in., and l=2.89., find mJ

slega [8]

Using the law of cosine for Triangle KJL, we can write:

$j^{2} = k^{2} + l^{2}-2(k)(l)cos(J) \\ \\ 
2(k)(l)cos(J)=k^{2} + l^{2}- j^{2} \\ \\ 
cos(J)= \frac{k^{2} + l^{2}- j^{2}}{2(k)(l)}$

Using the values of k,j and l, we can write:

$cos(J)= \frac{ 4^{2} + (2.89)^{2} - 3^{2} }{2(4)(2.89)} \\ \\ 
cos(J)= 0.664 \\ \\ 
J= cos^{-1}(0.664) \\ \\ 
J=48.39$

Rounding to nearest integer, the measure of angle J will be 48 degrees.
So option B gives the correct answer

What would this be using a positive exponent?

tatuchka [14]

1 / 9^4 and 1 / 6^3

This is because in order to make a negative exponent into a postive exponent, you need to make it into a fraction, 1 as the top number, and the negative exponent as a postive one.

For example, 6^-3 becomes 1 / 6^3.

I hope I helped.

Which expression is equivalent to 150x² - 60x ?

Bas_tet [7]

Answer: The Answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to distribute 15x(10x - 4). 15x times 10x is 150x and since there is 2 x's your gonna square it. So then it would be 150x². next 15x times -4 is -60 and add your x. Your answer is 150x² - 60x.
