Answer:

The 16-oz bottle is a better buy

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the better buy by finding which one has a lower price per ounce:

Calculate the price per ounce of both bottles by dividing the cost by the number of ounces

5.78/16

= 0.36

3.97/8

= 0.5

Since 0.36 is smaller than 0.5, the 16 ounce bottle is a better buy.

Answer:

The 16-oz bottle of parmesan cheese is the better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is the better buy because, if you compare the prices and the ounces, I say that the 16-oz is the best buy.

Which statement about the values 0.034 and 3.40 are true

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

This question requires options.

Since none is provided, I will give a general solution.

We have: 0.034 and 3.40

Required

The relationship between them

3.40 can be expressed as:

$3.40 \to 0.034 * 100$

This means that 3.40 is 100 of 0.034

Similarly, 0.034 can be expressed as:

$0.034 \to 3.40 * \frac{1}{100}$

This means that 0.034 is 1/100 of 3.40

For positive acute angles A and B, it is known that cos A= 20/29 and tan B= 11/60. Find the value of cos(A + B) in simplest form

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \cos(A + B) =\frac{969}{1769}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

$\displaystyle \cos A=\frac{20}{29}\text{ and } \tan B=\frac{11}{60}$

Where A and B are positive acute angles.

And we want to find cos(A + B).

Recall that cosine is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse. Using this information, find the opposite side with respect to Angle A:

$o=\sqrt{29^2-20^2}=21$

Tangent is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. Find the hypotenuse with respect to Angle B:

$h=\sqrt{11^2+60^2}=61$

In summary:

With respect to Angle A, the adjacent side is 20, opposite is 21, and the hypotenuse is 29.

With respect to Angle B, the adjacent side is 60, the opposite is 11, and the hypotenuse is 61.

We can rewrite our expression as:

$\displaystyle \cos(A+B)=\cos A\cos B-\sin A\sin B$

Using the above information, substitute in the appropriate values. Note that since A and B are positive acute angles, all trigonometric values will be positive. Hence:

$\displaystyle \cos(A + B)=\left(\frac{20}{29}\right)\left(\frac{60}{61}\right)-\left(\frac{21}{29}\right)\left(\frac{11}{61}\right)$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle \cos(A + B) =\frac{1200-231}{1769}=\frac{969}{1769}$

What is trigonometry and where is it used?

liq [111]

Answer:

Trigonometric functions are used in obtaining unknown angles and distances from known or measured angles in geometric figures. Trigonometry developed from a need to compute angles and distances in such fields as astronomy, mapmaking, surveying, and artillery range finding.

Your friend rolled a number cube and got number 5. On his next turn he says he won’t be able to get another 5 because his chance

Sophie [7]

Answer:

he can still get a 5 but he is equally likely to get any other number 1 to 6

Step-by-step explanation:

he has a 1/6 chance of rolling 5 the first turn and it becomes more and more rare to roll lots of 5s in a row

1/6

1/36

1/216

etc

each time the denominator is multiplied by 6 because it is less likely he will roll a 5 so many times in a row
