Answer:

2, sqrt of 7633

Step-by-step explanation:

for now, we'll leave the 3rd side as x

y using the Pythagorean theorem, we can conclude that (1) 48^2+x^2=73^2 or (2) 48^2+73^2=x^2.

1. If we conclude the x isn't the longest, the x would be 3025 which is the sqrt of 55, now is invalid because the 2 smallest sides can't be more than the longest side when they add up 55+48>73 so that is invalid

2. Then, it leaves us with only 1 choice left! concluding that the 3rd side is the longest. Which the answer is sqrt of 7633

A project on Kickstarter.com was aiming to raise $15000 for a precision coffee press. They ended up with 714 supporters, raising

Leni [432]

For this, we can set up a proportion.
Their aim was 15000, so if they raised 100% of their goal, they wouldve raised exactly 15000.
They raised 557%, so how much did they make?

Proportion:

$15000 100%
$x 557%

Our expression would be x=$15000*557% divided by 100%, which would be $83550, so... a lot of money.

(we did an “x” formation with the proportion, ie “connected” x with 100, and “connected” 15k and 557. The number connecting to x is what we divide the equation by, and the other two are multiplied and then divided by the first number connecting to x. Otherwise we couldve calculated 557% of 15000 and gotten the same result. Whichever way is easier for you :) )

Solve sec2theta + tantheta - 3 =0 for 0

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Ф = $\frac{\pi }{4} ,\frac{5\pi}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a bit difficult to input the work here, so I uploaded an image

First we can use the trig identities to change sec²(Ф) to tan²(Ф) + 1
Then we can combine like terms
Then we can factor this as a polynomial function
Then we can set each term equal to zero and solve for Ф
The first term tan(Ф) - 2 = 0 has no solution because tan(Ф) ≠ -2 anywhere
The second term tan(Ф) - 1 = 0 has two solutions of $\frac{\pi}{4}$ and $\frac{5\pi}{4}$ so these are the solutions to the problem

A 10 ft. tent pole has a support rope that extends from the top of the pole to the ground. The rope and the ground form a 30 deg

GrogVix [38]

So you have a pole that is 10 feet tall that has a rope that goes from the top to the ground, the rope being 30 degrees to the ground... You can draw a right triangle using these dimensions. Now that you have a triangle, you look at where your 30degree angle is related to the side whose length you know and the side whose length you wish to find. The side you know is opposite from the 30 degrees while the side you want to find is the hypotenuse, for it goes down at an angle. You will use the opposite and hypotenuse sides, so, according to SOH CAH TOA, you will be using sin.
$\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}=sin\theta,\theta=30,opposite=10,hypotenuse=?$
plug in those values and solve for your hypotenuse.
The easiest way to do this is if you knew the identities for special right triangles like the 30 60 90 triangles or the 45 45 90 triangles, but I showed you how to solve for your sides even if they're not special

Rowan has $50 in a savings jar and is putting in $5 every week. Jonah has $10 in his own jar and is putting in $15 every week. E

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

(3) Jonah's graph has a steeper slope than Rowan's

Step-by-step explanation:

First we are going to write the equations for the amount of money that each one save

y = a+bx

Where y: Amount of money in the jar

a: Initial saving

b: Money saved every week ( graph's slope )

x: Number of week

Then, for Rowan

y = 50 + 5x

and for Jonah

y = 10 + 15x

Initially Rowan's graph lies above Jonah's graph but this situation change with time.

It is always true that Jonah's graph has a steeper slope than Rowan's, because for Rowan's graph the slope is 5 and for Jonah's graph the slope is 15

Then the answer is:

(3) Jonah's graph has a steeper slope than Rowan's
