Answer:

The number is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number

Add 16 to the number

x+16

Is equal to 40

x+16 = 40

Subtract 16 from each side

x+16-16 = 40-16

x = 24

Solve the equation for principal values of x. Express solutions in degrees.
Hitman42 [59]

Option C:

x = 90°

Solution:

Given equation:

\sin x=1+\cos ^{2} x

<u>To find the degree:</u>

\sin x=1+\cos ^{2} x

Subtract 1 + cos²x from both sides.

\sin x-1-\cos ^{2} x=0

Using the trigonometric identity:\cos ^{2}(x)=1-\sin ^{2}(x)

\sin x-1-\left(1-\sin ^{2}x\right)=0

\sin x-1-1+\sin ^{2}x=0

\sin x-2+\sin ^{2}x=0

\sin ^{2}x+\sin x-2=0

Let sin x = u

u^2+u-2=0

Factor the quadratic equation.

(u+2)(u-1)=0

u + 2 = 0,  u – 1 = 0

u = –2, u = 1

That is sin x = –2, sin x = 1

sin x can't be smaller than –1 for real solutions. So ignore sin x = –2.

sin x = 1

The value of sin is 1 for 90°.

x = 90°.

Option C is the correct answer.

a conical tank with vertex down is 10 feet across the top and 12 feet deep. If water is flowing out of the tank at a rate of 12
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The water level is dropping at a rate of 0.24 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we simply want to calculate the change in depth (height of the cone) , given the volume change

Mathematically, we have the volume of a cone as;

V = 1/3 * π * r^2 * h

we are given dv/dt as 12 ft^3/m

dv/dh = 1/3 * π * r^2

Substituting the value for the radius, we have

dv/dh = 1/3 * 22/7 * 4^2 = 50.29

dh/dt = dh/dv * dv/dt

dh/dv = 1/(dv/dh) = 1/50.29

Thus,

dh/dt = 1/50.29 * 12

dh/dt = 0.24 ft/s

A circular plate has circumference 21.4 inches. What is the area of this​ plate? Use 3.14 for pi.
Brut [27]

Answer:

The area of this plate is 36.31\ \text{inches}^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Circumference of a circular plate, C = 21.4 inches

The circumference of a circular shape is given by :

C=2\pi r

r is radius of circular shape

r=\dfrac{C}{2\pi}\\\\r=\dfrac{21.4}{2\times 3.14}\\\\r=3.4\ \text{inches}

Area of this plate is given by :

A=\pi r^2\\\\A=\pi (3.4)^2\\\\A=36.31\ \text{inches}^2

So, the area of this plate is 36.31\ \text{inches}^2.
