Answer:

x = 24.99 or 25

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Using sin to figure out the angle of ABD, we can figure out the angle of CBD by subtracting it from 90°.</em>

sin y = (1/5)

y = 11.54°

90 - 11.54 = 78.46°

<em>Now using Pythagorean Theorem (</em><em>a²+b²=c²</em><em>) we can solve for line BD.</em>

1² + b² = 5²

1 + b² = 25

b² = 24

b = √24

<em>Now we can use tan to figure out the length of segment DC.</em>

tan(78.46) = z/√24

z = 23.99

<em>We can now combine the known length of segment AD and the length of DC to get </em><em>x</em><em>.</em>

1 + 23.99 = 24.99 or <u>about</u> 25.

The population of city is 2500 if the number of males is 240 more than females how many males and females are there in the city?
Blizzard [7]
There are 1130 females. There are 1370 males. What I did was take 2500 and subtracted 240 from it. I got 2260 and then divided that number by 2 and got the number of females. Then I took that number and added 240 to it and got the number of males.

COSO ---
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

• zero: -4, -4/3, 7

• positive: -4 < x < -4/3 . . . or 7 < x

• negative: x < -4 . . . or -4/3 < x < 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeros of the function are at x=-4, -4/3, +7. These are the values that make each of the individual factors be zero. For example, x-7=0 when x=7.

The function will be negative for x-values left of an odd number of zeros. It will be positive for x-values left of an even number of zeros (including left of no zeros, which is to say right of all zeros). This is because the sign of the factor giving rise to the zero changes for x-values on either side of that zero. (This is not true for zeros with even multiplicity, as the sign does not change at those.)

Someone help please this is for trigonometry
Softa [21]
Hi there!

Something really good to remember about trigonometry is SOHCAHTOA. I won’t dive into too much detail about it, but you should google it for future assignments.

Anyways,

tan50°=14/AB
ABtan50°=14
AB=14/tan50°
AB=11.75

cos50°=14/AC
ACcos50°=14
AC=14/cos50°
AC=21.78

For the measure of angle C you can use a theorem called the third angle theorem. In every single possible triangle, the sum of all three angles adds up to 180°. You can set up an equation like so...

angleC=180-(90+50)
angleC=180-140
angleC=40°

If the two angles are complementary, find the measure of each angle.
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

∠CTM = 60

∠MTY = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary means adds to 90°

2p + p = 90

3p = 90

p=30

2p = 60
