Answer:

(√9)^2x-1/2 = 1/81

3^2x-1/2 = 1/(3)⁴. (as √9 = 3)

3^2x-1/2 = 3^-⁴. (as 1/a^m = a^-m)

as base are equal exponents are equal

so 3 gets cancelled out

2x-1/2 = -4

(4x-1)/2 = -4

4x-1 = -8

x = -7/4

hope this helps

Match each trig function to a ratio. tan(A)=

ehidna [41]

Answer:

$\frac{y}{x}$ , the fourth option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan means $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ or opposite side divided by adjacent side.

Tan A equals the opposite side of the angle A divided by its adjacent side.

The side opposite of A is y and side adjacent to it is x.

So, Tan A equals $\frac{y}{x}$ !

Angle JKL is 54 degrees. What is the measure of angle MKL? *

hoa [83]

Answer:

MKL = 36°

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 6) + (6x + 12) = 54°

3x + 6x + 6 + 12 = 54

9x + 18 = 54

9x = 54 - 18

9x = 36

x = 36/9

x = 4

MKL = 6x + 12

MKL = 6(4) + 12

MKL = 24 + 12

MKL = 36°

Whats the answer to 6a+12=2(3a-8)

erastova [34]

6a+12=2(3a-8)
6a+12=6a-16
-12. -12
6a=6a-4
-6a -6a
0=-4
no solution because the equation is false.

Find a fraction equivalent to 5/7 whose squared terms add up to 1184.

bogdanovich [222]

The system of equations of two unknowns is formulated and solved.

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \left\{\begin{matrix} \ \ \ \dfrac{x}{y} = \dfrac{5}{7} \\ x^2+y^2 = 1184 \end{matrix}\right. \ \Longrightarrow \ x=\dfrac{5}{7}y } \end{gathered}$}$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \left (\dfrac{5}{7}y \right )^2+y^2=1184\ \Longrightarrow\ 25y^2+49y^2=58016 } \end{gathered}$}$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{74y^{2}=58016} \end{gathered}$}\\\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \ \ \ \ \ \ y^{2}=784 } \end{gathered}$}\\\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \ \ \ \ \ y=\pm\sqrt{784}=\pm28 } \end{gathered}$}$

$\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ x=\dfrac{5}{7}(\pm 28)=\pm 20 } \end{gathered}$}$

The fraction that satisfies the request is $\bf{\dfrac{20}{28}}$ , since in $\bf{\dfrac{-20}{-28}}$ the negative signs are canceled and the first fraction is obtained.
