<h2>Answer :</h2>

Error (e) = 12 - 9 = $ 3

assumed value (a) = $ 9

$\boxed{ \mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{error}{assumed \: value} \times 100}}$

$\mathrm{ \% \: error =\dfrac{3}{9} ×100}$

$\mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{1}{3} ×100}$

$\mathrm{ \% \: error = 33.33 \%}$

If tan ⁡x=12/5, and 0°

Charra [1.4K]

The value of sin(2x) is $\frac{120}{169}$

Explanation:

Given that $tan x =\frac{12}{5}$

The formula for $sin(2x)$ is $\sin (2 x)=2 \sin x \cos x$

Since, $\tan x=\frac{o p p}{a d j}$

Also, it is given that $tan x =\frac{12}{5}$

Thus, $opp=12$ and $adj=5$

To find the hypotenuse, let us use the pythagoras theorem,

$\begin{aligned}h y p &=\sqrt{12^{2}+5^{2}} \\&=\sqrt{144+25} \\&=\sqrt{169} \\&=13\end{aligned}$

Now, we can find the value of sin x and cos x.

$\sin x=\frac{\text { opp }}{h y p}=\frac{12}{13}$

$\cos x=\frac{a d j}{h y p}=\frac{5}{13}$

Now, substituting these values in the formula for sin 2x, we get,

$\begin{aligned}\sin (2 x) &=2 \sin x \cos x \\&=2\left(\frac{12}{13}\right)\left(\frac{5}{13}\right) \\&=\frac{120}{169}\end{aligned}$

Thus, the value of sin(2x) is $\frac{120}{169}$

1. Which graph models the equation y = 3.5x?

MAXImum [283]

1) is C because the line is increasing not decreasing and it goes up 7 & right 2.
2) the y-intercept is -2 and the slope is up 3 over 1, so the answer has to be B
3) the answer is A because the up 2 over 3
4) the y-intercept is a positive 4, and the slope is going down 3 and to the right 5, and the line is decreasing so you know it has to be negative. the answer is D
