Answer:

8/17 is correct because cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse, and since angle A is theta, or the reference angle, the adjacent of A would be 8, and the hypotenuse is always across the right angle.

15/17 would be sine instead of cosine

-7 = -1 + x/3, solve and explain with an algebraic property

k0ka [10]

$-7 = -1 + \frac{x}{3}$

Multiply both sides by 3 :

$-3*1 + 3* \frac{x}{3} = -3*7$

Refine:

$x - 3 = -21$

$x = - 21 + 3$

$x = - 18$

hope this helps!.

If y = kx, what is the value of k if y = 20 and x = 0.4? A) 5 B) 8 C) 9.6 D) 50

Margaret [11]

Answer: D, 50
y = kx <span>y = 20 and x = 0.4
</span>
What you will do: You will plug in your y and your x.
Your equation should look like: 20=k(0.4)
Next: What you will do is divide each side of your equal sign by 0.4 so you will get your k alone.
You would get: k=50

HOPE THIS HELPS! ^_^
