Part (a)

<h3>Answer: 2(2.4+w) = 14.2</h3>

--------------

Explanation:

L = 2.4 = length

W = unknown width

The perimeter of any rectangle is P = 2(L+W)

We replace L with 2.4, and replace P with 14.2 to get 14.2 = 2(2.4+w) which is equivalent to 2(2.4+w) = 14.2

========================================================

Part (b)

<h3>Answer: w = 4.7</h3>

--------------

Explanation:

We'll solve the equation we set up in part (a)

2(2.4+w) = 14.2

2(2.4)+2(w) = 14.2

4.8+2w = 14.2

2w = 14.2-4.8

2w = 9.4

w = 9.4/2

w = 4.7

The width must be 4.7 cm.

Find sec theta if theta is in quadrant 4 and sin theta= -1/5

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{2\sqrt{6} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Θ is in fourth quadrant then cosΘ > 0, as is secΘ

Given

sinΘ = - $\frac{1}{5}$ , then

cosΘ = $\sqrt{1-(-1/5)^2}$

= $\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{25} }$ = $\sqrt{\frac{24}{25} }$ = $\frac{2\sqrt{6} }{5}$

Hence

secΘ = $\frac{1}{\frac{2\sqrt{6} }{5} }$ = $\frac{5}{2\sqrt{6} }$

When looking at the graph of a 5th degree function, how can you determine if all of the zeros of the function are real?

Finger [1]

Answer:

If it cuts x-axis 5 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we look at the graph of a function we can see its real roots by looking at its graph

The intersecting points that is the number of times a line cutting x-axis will be the real root of the function

So, by looking at the 5th degree function the number of time that function cuts x-axis will be the number of real roots.

So, if we need to say all the zeroes or roots of the function are real means it will cut the x-axis 5 times.

Because a function will have the root equal to its degree.
