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

If f(x) = -2^2 + 2x – 10, what is f(2)?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

f(2) = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you have to plug in 2 for x

f(2) = -2^2 + 2(2) - 10

= 4 + 4 - 10

= 8 - 10

= -2

If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

The number would have to be added is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the form of the completing square of the quadratic function:

  • Divide the coefficient of x by 2
  • Square the quotient
  • Subtract the numerical term from the square of the quotient

Let us do these steps with our question

∵ x² - 2x - 1 = 0

→ Divide the coefficient of x by 2

∵ The coefficient of x is -2

∴ -2 ÷ 2 = -1

→ Square the -1

∵ (-1)² = 1

→ Subtract the numerical term from 1

∵ The numerical term = -1

∵ 1 - (-1) = 1 + 1 = 2

∴ We must add 2 to -1 to get 1

→ (x² - 2x - 1 + 2) - 2 = 0

→ (x² - 2x + 1) = 2

→ (x - 1)² = 2

The number would have to be added is 2

if a duck is quacking upside down and I drive my car into the refrigerator then why is there an octopus on my ceiling?​
Amanda [17]
Since the ducks quack in the reverse position of upright is louder than normal, it obstructs your driving causing you to drive into a refrigerator. the octopus had always been there
