Answer:

68° and 112°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles sum to 180°

let the smaller angle be x then the larger angle is x + 44 , then

x + x + 44 = 180 , that is

2x + 44 = 180 ( subtract 44 from both sides )

2x = 136 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 68

Smaller angle = 68° and

larger angle = x + 44 = 68 + 44 = 112°

Find sin(a+b) if tan(a)=7/24 where a is in the third quadrant

ludmilkaskok [199]

The complete question in the attached figure

we have that
tan a=7/24 a----> III quadrant
cos b=-12/13 b----> II quadrant
sin (a+b)=?

we know that
sin(a + b) = sin(a)cos(b) + cos(a)sin(b<span>)
</span>
step 1
find sin b
sin²b+cos²b=1------> sin²b=1-cos²b----> 1-(144/169)---> 25/169
sin b=5/13------> is positive because b belong to the II quadrant

step 2
Find sin a and cos a
tan a=7/24
tan a=sin a /cos a-------> sin a=tan a*cos a-----> sin a=(7/24)*cos a
sin a=(7/24)*cos a------> sin²a=(49/576)*cos²a-----> equation 1
sin²a=1-cos²a------> equation 2
equals 1 and 2
(49/576)*cos²a=1-cos²a---> cos²a*[1+(49/576)]=1----> cos²a*[625/576]=1
cos²a=576/625------> cos a=-24/25----> is negative because a belong to III quadrant
cos a=-24/25
sin²a=1-cos²a-----> 1-(576/625)----> sin²a=49/625
sin a=-7/25-----> is negative because a belong to III quadrant

step 3
find sin (a+b)
sin(a + b) = sin(a)cos(b) + cos(a)sin(b)
sin a=-7/25
cos a=-24/25
sin b=5/13
cos b=-12/13
so
sin (a+b)=[-7/25]*[-12/13]+[-24/25]*[5/13]----> [84/325]+[-120/325]
sin (a+b)=-36/325

the answer is
sin (a+b)=-36/325

What is the rate of change in decimal form for the points (1,5) (0,-3)

seraphim [82]

Answer:

The rate of change between (1, 5) and (0, -3) would be 8.0.

Step-by-step explanation:

"What is the rate of change between these two points" is the same as asking "what is the slope between these two points".

We are given the two points (1, 5) and (0, -3) and we are asked to find the rate of change (slope) between these two points. To do this, we could use the slope formula to find the rate of change between the two points. The slope formula is:

$\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

where (x₂, y₂) and (x₁, y₁) are the two points that we are trying to find the slope between.

Lets make (x₂, y₂) = (1, 5) and (x₁, y₁) = (0, -3). (It does not matter which is (x₂, y₂) and which is (x₁, y₁)). Now plug (x₂, y₂) = (1, 5) and (x₁, y₁) = (0, -3) into the equation:

$\frac{5-(-3)}{1-0} =\frac{8}{1}=8$

8 = 8.0, so the answer would be 8.0.

The rate of change between the two points would be 8.0.

I hope you find my answer helpful. :)

60% of what number is 75

kramer

$60\% \ of \ x =75 \\\\ \frac{60}{100}*x=75\\\\ \frac{6}{10}=\frac{75}{x} \\\\ \frac{3}{5}*\frac{75}{x} \\\\ x=\frac{5*75}{3} \\\\ x=5*25 \\\\ \boxed{x=125}$
