<h3>Answer: 7 inches (choice B)</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

1 foot = 12 inches

5 feet = 60 inches (multiply both sides by 5)

5 ft, 3 in = 63 inches (add 3 inches to both sides)

Through similar steps, you should find that 4 ft 8 in converts to 56 inches

The difference is 63-56 = 7 inches

Which of the following describes the growth rate of the exponential function in the graph below?
motikmotik
The common form of exponential function is y = xᵃ where x is the variable and a is raised to a specific number. From this, the graph would on the value of a. An example would be when there are 70000 bacteria present in a culture and reduced by half every four hours, the number of bacteria will decrease. The bacteria will experience an exponential decay because it decreases its number at a constant decay.

Is sin theta=5/6, what are the values of cos theta and tan theta?
mina [271]

let's bear in mind that sin(θ) in this case is positive, that happens only in the I and II Quadrants, where the cosine/adjacent are positive and negative respectively.

\bf sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{5}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{6}}\qquad \impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{adjacent side}} \\\\\\ \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \pm\sqrt{6^2-5^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{36-25}\implies \pm \sqrt{11}=a \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{\pm\sqrt{11}}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{6}} \\\\\\ tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{5}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{\pm\sqrt{11}}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{and rationalizing the denominator}~\hfill }{tan(\theta )=\pm\cfrac{5}{\sqrt{11}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{11}}\implies tan(\theta )=\pm\cfrac{5\sqrt{11}}{11}}
