Answer: Answer:

2 4/16 = 2 1/4 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The pointer is 4 of the smallest units above 2. There are 16 of those small units. Each 2 of those units is 1/8 pound, so when the pointer is on a multiple of 2 units, it is on a multiple of 1/8 pound. No guesswork is required to choose the correct weight to the nearest 1/8 pound.

2 4/16 = 2 1/4 lb . . . . the scale reading to the nearest 1/8 pound.

Answer:

c=19.21

<C=90

<B=38.66°

<A=51.34

Step-by-step explanation:

12²+15²=c²

144+225=c²

c=19.21

<C=90

For angle B, the sinB=Opposite over Hypotenuse

sinB=12/19.21

sinB=0.62467

B=sin^-1(0.62467)

<B=38.66°

To find A, 180-90-38.66

<A=51.34

The amount of money Chaz earned for walking dogs is given in the table. Can the relationship be described by a constant rate? Ex

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Yes, the relationship can be described by a constant rate of $18.75 per dog

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Let

x ----> the number of dogs

y ---> the amount of money earned

we have the points

$(6,112,50), (8,150), (11,206.25)$

step 1

Find the slope with the first and second point

$(6,112,50), (8,150)$

$m=(150-112.50)/(8-6)=18.75$

step 2

Find the slope with the first and third point

$(6,112,50), (11,206.25)$

$m=(206.25-112.50)/(11-6)=18.75$

Compare the slopes

The slopes are the same

That means, that the three points lies on the same line

therefore

Yes, the relationship can be described by a constant rate of $18.75 per dog

Cot^2x csc^2x + 2 csc^2x –cot^2 = 2

kow [346]

Answer:

x = π/2 + πk

Step-by-step explanation:

cot² x csc² x + 2 csc² x − cot² x = 2

Multiply both sides by sin² x:

cot² x + 2 − cos² x = 2 sin² x

Add cos² x to both sides:

cot² x + 2 = 2 sin² x + cos² x

Pythagorean identity:

cot² x + 2 = sin² x + 1

Subtract 1 from both sides:

cot² x + 1 = sin² x

Pythagorean identity:

csc² x = sin² x

Multiply both sides by sin² x:

1 = sin⁴ x

Take the fourth root:

sin x = ±1

Solve for x:

x = π/2 + 2πk, 3π/2 + 2πk

Which simplifies to:

x = π/2 + πk
