6 0

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 5 = 84/x

x² - 5x = 84

x² - 5x - 84 = 0

x = (5 ±√(5² - 4(1)(-84))) / 2

x = (5 ± 19) / 2

x = -7 ignore

x = 12

Note that C-B is considered the hypotenuse of the of traingle. Therefore, according to the acronym SOH CAH TOA, Cos C = Adjacent/ Hypotenuse, where the adjacent is 8√34 and the hypotenuse is given by by pythagoreas theorem (a²+b² = c²) or c=√(a²+b²) → c=√4352

Then Cos C = (8√34) /(√4352) → this simplifies into √2 on the top and 2 on the bottom once we simplify.

Final Answer: \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}

If k = (n + 2)(n – 2), where n is an integer greater than 2, what is the value of k ? (1) k is the product of two primes. (2) k
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The answer is k=77

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that n is an integer and greater than 2. Let us simplify k = (n + 2)(n – 2) to k=n^2-4.

In (1) it is stated that k is the product of two primes and in (2) it is stated that k<100. To solve the question we need to consider both cases (1) and (2).

Let say n=9 then k=n^2-4 becomes k=81-4=77. Well, 77 is the product of two prime numbers 7 and 11 (77=7*11). The answer is k=77

zlopas [31]
I believe 30, because there are six ways in and five ways out, five because you can't go back through the same entrance. So six times five is thirty.
