What is the value of x and the length of the segment?

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

x=14

PN=MN=85

Step-by-step explanation:

It is an isosceles triangle because PQ=MQ and QN is perpendicular to PM. PN=MN

8x-27=6x+1

2x=28

x=14

PN=MN=85

Scientists have increased their ability to make observations beyond their own senses through the invention of specialized equipm

just olya [345]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A is rather a strange choice. The tools are used as extensions of our senses. That's all that technology has done. We still need to observe things for ourselves if we are to learn. I actually really do not know what this statement means. My answer reflects what I think is true. Our need to observe and think is not hindered.

B is never going to be true. We still have to test things out, even with the best tools that we have.

C: The exact opposite is true. Our knowledge of the universe has expanded beyond our belief with the better tools of technology that we have.

D: This is the opposite of C and is the answer.

What is the value of sin-1(1)? negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction 0 startfraction pi over 2 endfraction π

mariarad [96]

The value of sin-1(1) is negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction, startfraction -pi over 2 endfraction.

<h3>What is the value of sin (π/2)?</h3>

The value of sin (π/2) is equal to the number 1. The value of the sin-1(1) has to be find out.

Suppose the value of this function is <em>x</em>. Thus,

$x=\sin^{-1}(1)$

Solve it further,

$\sin(x)=(1)$ ......1

The value of sin (π/2) and -sin (-π/2) is equal to 1 such that,

$\sin\dfrac{\pi}{2}=-\sin\left(-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)=1$

Put this value in the equation 1,

$\sin(x)=\sin\left(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)=-\sin\left(-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)$

Thus, the range will be,

$\left(\dfrac{\pi}{2},-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)$

Thus, the value of sin-1(1) is negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction, startfraction -pi over 2 endfraction.

Dinosaur fossils are often dated by using an element other than carbon, like potassium-40, that has a longer half life (in this

Firlakuza [10]

The amount of substance left of a radioactive element of half life, $t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ after a time, t, is given by:

$N(t)=N_0\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{t_{ \frac{1}{2} }}$

Given that <span>potassium-40 has a half life of approximately 1.25 billion years.

The number of years it will take for 0.1% of potassium-40 to remain is obtained as follows:

$0.1=100\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}}=0.001 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{1.25}\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=\ln(0.001) \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{t}{1.25}= \frac{\ln(0.001)}{\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)} =9.966 \\ \\ t=9.966(1.25)=12.5$

Therefore, </span><span>the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k is 12.5 billion years.</span>
