Answer: x = 115.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose that we have the equation:

2*cos(x + 40°) = 1/2 for 0° < x < 360°

Let's solve this.

First, we isolate the cosine function:

cos(x + 40°) = (1/2)/2 = 1/4

cos(x + 40°) = 1/4

Now we can use the Acos(x) function, remember that:

Acos(cos(x)) = x

cos(Acos(x)) = x

Then if we use this function in both sides, we get:

Acos( cos(x + 40°)) = Acos(1/4)

x + 40° = Acos(1/4) = 75.5°

x = 75.5° + 40° = 115.5°

x = 115.5°

Answer:

58

Step-by-step explanation:

First, draw out your triangle on a piece of paper, and label each point w, x, and y

We are then told that side wx and yw are similar. This means that we have an isosceles triangle with two similar sides.

We are also told that angle w is equal to 64 degrees

with this information, we can assume that angle y is the same as angle x

Another important thing to note is that all triangle measures equals to 180

SO

we can make this expression:

64 + x + x = 180

Now to solve for x:

64 + x + x = 180

64 + 2x = 180

2x = 116

x = 58

What is the explicit formula for this sequence?
Zarrin [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The above sequence is a geometric sequence

For an nth term in a geometric sequence

a(n) = a ({r})^{n - 1}

where

n is the number of terms

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

From the question

a = 5

r = 10/5 = 2

Therefore the explicit formula for this sequence is

a(n) = 5( {2})^{n - 1}

Hope this helps you

Erika calculated that she would spend $115 on school supplies this year. She actually spent $82.50 on school supplies. What is E
DerKrebs [107]
The equation to find percent error is:
percent error=(experimental-theoretical)/theoretical *100
So, (115-82.5)/82.5=0.393939*100
39.3939%, or 39.94%

Hope this helps!!
