Answer:

Answer: x = 71 degrees. Yes, the ladder meets safety standards

Discussion:

The problem describes a right triangle with hypotenuse 12, the side against the ground is 4, and the angle between those two sides is "x". For this triangle,

cosx = (side adjacent to angle) / hypotenuse

= 4 / 12

= 1/3

To find "x" take the inverse cosine of each side to find that :

x is approximately 70.52 degrees. That's 71 degrees rounded to the nearest degree.

Which is f(5) for the function -2x2 + 2x - 3?

Schach [20]

The value of f(5) is -37

Solution:

Given function is:

$f(x) = -2x^2+2x+3$

We have to find the value of f(5)

To find the value of f(5), we have to substitute x is equal to 5 in given function

Plug in x = 5 in f(x)

$f(x) = -2x^2+2x+3\\\\f(5) = -2(5)^2+2(5) + 3\\\\\text{Simplify the above expression }\\\\f(5) = -2(25) + 10 + 3\\\\\text{Solve the above expression }\\\\f(5) = -50 + 10 + 3\\\\f(5) = -40 + 3 = -37$

Thus value of f(5) is -37

Which equation demonstrates the additive identity property?

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to simplify the expression removing parentheses

Simplify 41o(7 + 4): Distribute the 41o to each term in (7+4)

41o * 7 = (41 * 7)o = 287o 41o * 4 = (41 * 4)o = 164o

Our Total expanded term is 287o + 164o

Simplify 41o(7 + 41): Distribute the 41o to each term in (7+41)

41o * 7 = (41 * 7)o = 287o 41o * 41 = (41 * 41)o = 1681o

Our Total expanded term is 287o + 1681o

Our updated term to work with is (7 + 4) + (7 - 41) = 14©(7 + 4) + 0 = 7 + 287o + 164o(1) = 7 + 287o + 1681o + ( - 7 - 41) = 0

We first need to simplify the expression removing parentheses

Simplify 164o(1): Distribute the 164o to each term in (1)

164o * 1 = (164 * 1)o = 164o Our Total expanded term is 164o

Our updated term to work with is (7 + 4) + (7 - 41) = 14©(7 + 4) + 0 = 7 + 287o + 164o = 7 + 287o + 1681o + ( - 7 - 41) = 0

Step 1: Group variables: We need to group our variables (7 and 14©(7. To do that, we subtract 14©(7 from both sides (7 - 14©(7 = 14©(7 - 14©(7

0o 0 = 0 0 o =
