\bold{\frac{5}{13} or 0.38}

Answer:

Solution given:

here

by using Pythagoras law

hypotenuse =

\displaystyle\sqrt{adjacent ²+opposite ²}\\=\sqrt{15²+36²}=39

Cos C=\frac{adjacent} {hypotenuse}=\frac{15}{39}=\frac{5}{13} or{0.38}

The line is 180 degrees in total so your equation would be-
X-6 + 8x + 24 = 180
9x + 18 = 180
9x = 162
Answer is: x = 18

A light source is located over the center of a circular table of diameter 4 feet. (See picture below) Find the height h of the l
Alex
Very nice to have an accompanied image!Illumination is proportional to the intensity of the source, inversely proportional to the distance squared, and to the sine of angle alpha.so that we can writeI(h)=K*sin(alpha)/s^2 ................(0)where K is a constant proportional to the light source, and a function of other factors.
Also, radius of the table is 4'/2=2', therefore, using Pythagoras theorem,s^2=h^2+2^2 ...........(1), and consequently,sin(alpha)=h/s=h/sqrt(h^2+2^2)..............(2)
Substitute (1) and (2) in (0), we can writeI(h)=K*(h/sqrt(h^2+4))/(h^2+4)=Kh/(h^2+4)^(3/2)
To get a maximum value of I, we equate the derivative of I (wrt alpha) to 0, orI'(h)=0or, after a few algebraic manipulations, I'(h)=K/(h^2+4)^(3/2)-(3*h^2*K)/(h^2+4)^(5/2)=K*sqrt(h^2+4)(2h^2-4)/(h^2+4)^3We see that I'(h)=0 if 2h^2-4=0, giving h=sqrt(4/2)=sqrt(2) feet above the table.
We know that I(h) is a minimum if h=0 (flat on the table) or h=infinity (very, very far away), so instinctively h=sqrt(2) must be a maximum.Mathematically, we can derive I'(h) to get I"(h) and check that I"(sqrt(2)) is negative (for a maximum).  If you wish, you could go ahead and find that I"(h)=(sqrt(h^2+4)*(6*h^3-36*h))/(h^2+4)^4, and find that the numerator equals -83.1K which is negative (denominator is always positive).
An alternative to showing that it is a maximum is to check the value of I(h) in the vicinity of h=sqrt(2), say I(sqrt(2) +/- 0.01)we findI(sqrt(2)-0.01)=0.0962218KI(sqrt(2))     =0.0962250K   (maximum)I(sqrt(2)+0.01)=0.0962218KIt is not mathematically rigorous, but it is reassuring, without all the tedious work.

“HOT PIZZA” is offering a 20% discount on all its pizzas
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

p = £7.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the original price by p.  Then 0.80p = £5.60, or p = £7.00.

If a price is discounted by 20%, the discounted price is (1 - 0.20), or 0.80, times the original price.

Imamu pays $30 each month for his gym membership. What is the change in the amount of money in his account after 2/3 of a year
Alchen [17]
The answer is $240 because 2/3 in a years have 8 month so just multiply 3*8  which give you 24 and just add a zero.

Your answer is: $240.


Thank you 

                                                                   Have a great day :).
