Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

126 miles - 3 hours

336 miles - x hours

Cross multiply

126x = 336 x 3

126x = 1008

Divide both sides by 126

x = 1008/126

x = 8

Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide 126 by 3 to get the Miles Per Hour, you should get 42 Miles Per Hour, then, just divide 336 by 42 to get the numbers of hours he will have to drive, (which is 8)

If sin theta= - 5/7, which of the following are possible?

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\sec\theta=\dfrac{7}{\sqrt{24}},\ and\ \tan\theta=-\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{24}}}\\\boxed{\cos\theta=\dfrac{\sqrt{24}}{7},\ and\ \tan\theta=\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{24}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Use:}\\\\\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1\to\cos\theta=\pm\sqrt{1-\sin^2\theta}\\\\\tan\theta=\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}\\\\\sec\theta=\dfrac{1}{\cos\theta}\\\\==========================\\\\\sin\theta=-\dfrac{5}{7}\\\\\cos\theta=\pm\sqrt{1-\left(-\frac{5}{7}\right)^2}=\pm\sqrt{1-\frac{25}{49}}=\pm\sqrt{\frac{24}{49}}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{24}}{\sqrt{49}}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{24}}{7}\\\\\sec\theta=\pm\dfrac{1}{\frac{\sqrt{24}}{7}}=\pm\dfrac{7}{\sqrt{24}}$

$\tan\theta=\pm\dfrac{-\frac{5}{7}}{\frac{\sqrt{24}}{7}}=\mp\dfrac{5}{7\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\cdot\dfrac{7\!\!\!\!\diagup^1}{\sqrt{24}}=\mp\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{24}}$
