5 0

Answer:

sin A = opp/hyp = 15/17

Right triangle

Therefor

a² + b² = c²

adj² + opp² = hyp²

adj² + 15² = 17²

adj² = 17² - 15²

adj² = 289 - 225

adj² = 64

adj = 8

Cos = adj/hyp

cos A = 8/17 <–––––

Colin has a pad with x pieces of paper on it. For his first class, he wrote on 5 fewer than half of the pieces of paper in the p
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Colin has <em>8 sheets </em>left for his third class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Number of pieces of papers = x

Number of pieces of papers used for 1st class = 5 fewer than half of the pieces in the pad

Writing the equation:

\text{Number of pieces of papers used for 1st class =} \dfrac{x}{2} -5 ...... (1)

Also, Given that number of pieces of papers used for the 2nd class are 2 more than that of papers used in the 1st class.

\text{Number of pieces of papers used for 2nd class =} \dfrac{x}{2} -5+2 = \dfrac{x}2 -3 ...... (2)

Now, number of pieces of papers left for the third class = Total number of pieces of papers in the pad - Number of pieces of papers used in the first class - Number of pieces of papers used in the first class

\text{number of pieces of papers left for the third class = }x-(\dfrac{x}{2}-5)-(\dfrac{x}{2}-3)\\\Rightarrow x-\dfrac{x}2-\dfrac{x}2+5+3\\\Rightarrow x-x+5+3\\\Rightarrow 8

So, the answer is:

Colin has <em>8</em> <em>sheets </em>left for his third class.

Find three solutions of the equation.
Gwar [14]

Answer:

3rd group of possible answers is the correct set

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the three points in the 3rd line of possible answers is a solution of the given equation, as can be verified by substitution:

If x = -2, y = -8(-2) = +16

If x = 3, y = -8(3) =  -24

If x = -4, y = -8(-4) = +32
