Answer:

10/7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let e = Ethan

k = Kayla

The following equations can de derived from the equation :

1/2 e = 2/3k

multiply both sides of the equation by 2

e = 4/3k --- 1

e + k = 10 --- 2

Substitute for e in equation 2

4/3k + k = 10

7/3k = 10

multiply both sides of the equation by 3/7

k = 30/7

Substitute for k in equation 1

e = (4/3) x 30/7 = 40/7

difference in length = 40/7 - 30/7 = 10/7

we can use formula

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{a_y}{a_x})$

(a)

we are given

$a_x=12,a_y=12$

now, we can plug values

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{12}{12})$

$\theta=tan^{-1}(1)$

$\theta=\frac{\pi}{4}rad$

(b)

we are given

$a_x=20,a_y=12$

now, we can plug values

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{12}{20})$

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{3}{5})$

$\theta=30.96^{\circ \:}$

(c)

we are given

$a_x=12,a_y=20$

now, we can plug values

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{20}{12})$

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{5}{3})$

$\theta=59.03^{\circ \:}$

If f(x) = x and g(x) = 2x + 7, what is<br>f[90X)] when g(x) = 11?

kumpel [21]

$\bf \begin{cases} f(x) = x\\ g(x) = 2x+7 \end{cases}~\hspace{7em}g(x)=11\implies \stackrel{g(x)}{11}=2x+7 \\\\\\ 4=2x\implies \cfrac{4}{2}=x\implies \implies \boxed{2=x} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ f[90x]\implies f\left[90\left( \boxed{2} \right)\right]\implies f(180)=\stackrel{x}{180}$

when 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number. Find the negative solution.

sveta [45]

When 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number, then the negative solution is -1

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that when 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number

To find: negative solution

Let "a" be the unknown number

Let us analyse the given sentence

square of a number = $a^2$

6 is subtracted from the square of a number = $a^2 - 6$

5 times the number = $5 \times a$

<em><u>So we can frame a equation as:</u></em>

6 is subtracted from the square of a number = 5 times the number

$a^2 - 6 = 5 \times a\\\\a^2 -6 -5a = 0\\\\a^2 -5a -6 = 0$

<em><u>Let us solve the above quadratic equation</u></em>

For a quadratic equation $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ where $a \neq 0$

$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Here in this problem,

$a^2-5 a-6=0 \text { we have } a=1 \text { and } b=-5 \text { and } c=-6$

Substituting the values in above quadratic formula, we get

$\begin{array}{l}{a=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^{2}-4(1)(-6)}}{2 \times 1}} \\\\ {a=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25+16}}{2}=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{49}}{2}} \\\\ {a=\frac{5 \pm 7}{2}}\end{array}$

We have two solutions for "a"

$\begin{array}{l}{a=\frac{5+7}{2} \text { and } a=\frac{5-7}{2}} \\\\ {a=\frac{12}{2} \text { and } a=\frac{-2}{2}}\end{array}$

<h3>a = 6 or a = -1</h3>

We have asked negative solution. So a = -1

Thus the negative solution is -1

Classify each pair of angles as Complementary, Supplementary or neither.

stellarik [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Supplementary

2. complementary

3. neither

4. These two are vertically opposite so neither.

5. Supplementary

6. They add to 90 so they are complementary

7. They add to 180 so they are supplementary.

8. These 2 are equal and vertically opposite. They are neither for this exercise.

9. Complementary: they add to 90.
