Answer:

(i)unique solution

Explanation:

We solve for x1 thus in the first equation:

x1-3x3=-3

x1-9=-3

x1=-3+9

x1= 6

We solve for a thus in the second equation:

2x1+ax2-x3=-2

2+a2-x3=-2

a2-x3=-4

a2=-4+x3

Hi!

The minimum is the lowest possibility on the graph, and the maximum is the highest.

In this graph, the highest point (the maximum) is (10,11) and the lowest point (the minimum) is (3, 1).

Hope this helps! :D

Determine the number of possible solutions for a triangle with B=37 degrees, a=32, b=27

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Two possible solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Applying the law of sines

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{b}{Sin(B)}=\frac{c}{Sin(C)}$

we have

$a=32\ units$

$b=27\ units$

$B=37\°$

step 1

Find the measure of angle A

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{b}{Sin(B)}$

substitute the values

$\frac{32}{sin(A)}=\frac{27}{Sin(37\°)}$

$sin(A)=(32)Sin(37\°)/27=0.71326$

$A=arcsin(0.71326)=45.5\°$

The measure of angle A could have two measures

the first measure-------> $A=45.5\°$

the second measure -----> $A=180\°-45.5\°=134.5\°$

step 2

Find the first measure of angle C

Remember that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle must be equal to $180\°$

$A+B+C=180\°$

substitute the values

$A=45.5\°$

$B=37\°$

$45.5\°+37\°+C=180\°$

$C=180\°-(45.5\°+37\°)=97.5\°$

step 3

Find the first length of side c

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{c}{Sin(C)}$

substitute the values

$\frac{32}{sin(37\°)}=\frac{c}{Sin(97.5\°)}$

$c=Sin(97.5\°)\frac{32}{sin(37\°)}=52.7\ units$

therefore

the measures for the first solution of the triangle are

$A=45.5\°$ , $a=32\ units$

$B=37\°$ , $b=27\ units$

$C=97.5\°$ , $b=52.7\ units$

step 4

Find the second measure of angle C with the second measure of angle A

Remember that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle must be equal to $180\°$

$A+B+C=180\°$

substitute the values

$A=134.5\°$

$B=37\°$

$134.5\°+37\°+C=180\°$

$C=180\°-(134.5\°+37\°)=8.5\°$

step 5

Find the second length of side c

$\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{c}{Sin(C)}$

substitute the values

$\frac{32}{sin(37\°)}=\frac{c}{Sin(8.5\°)}$

$c=Sin(8.5\°)\frac{32}{sin(37\°)}=7.9\ units$

therefore

the measures for the second solution of the triangle are

$A=45.5\°$ , $a=32\ units$

$B=37\°$ , $b=27\ units$

$C=8.5\°$ , $b=7.9\ units$

Find the probability of spinning a 2 or 4 on a wheel of 8 and rolling a 6 on a die.

k0ka [10]

Answer:

1. 1/4

2. 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

On a wheel of 8, there are 8 possible outcomes. If you need to spin 2 or 4, that is 2 out of 8 outcomes.

So the probability is 2/8 or 1/4

Rolling a six on a die is a 1/6 chance because there are six outcomes and you want one of them to happen.
