Answer:

8a. x = 16√3

8b. y = 8√3

Step-by-step explanation:

8a. Determination of the value of x

Adjacent = 24

Hypothenus = x

Angle θ = 30°

The value of x can be obtained by using cosine ratio as illustrated below:

Cos θ = Adjacent /Hypothenus

Cos 30 = 24 / x

√3/2 = 24/x

Cross multiply

x × √3 = 2× 24

x × √3 = 48

Divide both side by √3

x = 48/√3

Rationalise

x = 48/√3 × √3/√3

x = 48√3 / √3 × √3

x = 48√3 / 3

x = 16√3

8b. Determination of the value of y

Opposite = y

Adjacent = 24

Angle θ = 30°

The value of y can be obtained by using Tan ratio as illustrated below:

Tan θ = Opposite / Adjacent

Tan 30 = y / 24

1 / √3 = y /24

Cross multiply

y × √3 = 1 × 24

y × √3 = 24

Divide both side by √3

y = 24 /√3

Rationalise

y = 24 /√3 × √3/√3

y = 24 ×√3 / √3 × √3

y = 24√3 / 3

y = 8√3

Which of the following is the minimum value of the equation y = 3x^2 − 4x − 2?
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

-3 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic

... y = ax² +bx +c

has its extreme value at

... x = -b/(2a)

Since a = 3 is positive, we know the parabola opens upward and the extreme value is a minimum. (We also know that from the problem statement asking us to find the minimum value.) The value of x at the minimum is -(-4)/(2·3) = 2/3.

To find the minimum value, we need to evaluate the function for x=2/3.

The most straightforward way to do this is to substitue 2/3 for x.

... y = 3(2/3)² -4(2/3) -2 = 3(4/9) -8/3 -2

... y = (4 -8 -6)/3 = -10/3

... y = -3 1/3

_____

<em>Confirmation</em>

You can also use a graphing calculator to show you the minimum.

Solve the system by substitution y=10x y=-3x-104
NISA [10]

Answer:  (-8, -80)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

y = 10x

y = -3x - 104

Substitute "y" with "10x" into the second equation, then solve for x:

10x = -3x - 104

13x = -104         <em>added 3x to both sides</em>

  x = -8             <em>divided both sides by 13</em>

Next, substitute -8 for x into the first equation to solve for y:

y = 10(-8)

  = -80

Carly tried to solve an equation step by step. 7a=28 Step 1: 7a/a = 28/7 Step 2: 7 = 4 Find Carly's mistake A: Step 1 B: Step 2
Murrr4er [49]

This are the right steps

Step 1: first you divide the both size by 7 because there is 7 a's

7a/7 = 28/7

Step 2: You solve the equation

7a/7= a. 28/7 = 4

So, the answer is a = 4

not 7 = 4

Solve for x and y<br> 7x - 3y =23<br>2x - 4y = -8<br>​
dybincka [34]

Q. 7x - 3y =23

Lets,   \: Find  \: x :-

7x - 3y = 23

7x - 3(0) = 23

x = 3.286

Now, Lets \:  find  \: y :-

7x - 3y = 23

7(0) - 3y = 23

y \: = -7.667

Which functions are symmetric with respect to the y axis<br>​
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A, B, and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Only the functions that have x by itself between the absolute value signs (A, B, and D) are symmetric with respect to the y-axis .

Placing a constant outside the absolute value signs moves the function up or down the y-axis but retains the symmetry.

Adding a constant inside the absolute value signs (as in C and E) moves the axis of symmetry to the left or right of the y-axis.

In the diagram, both A and B are symmetric with respect to the y-axis, but C has been shifted three units to the left.
