Answer:

Total Paperback books = 8x , where x is any positive number

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The total books are = 13x   ; where x is any positive number

As given,

The ratio of hardback books to total books is 5 to 13.

⇒Hardback books = \frac{5}{13}× Total books

⇒Hardback books = \frac{5}{13}× 13x = 5x

So, Paperback books = Total books - Hardback books

                                    = 13x - 5x

                                    = 8x

⇒Total Paperback books = 8x

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below.​
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

x =  \sqrt{28}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Base of the triangle = 6

Hypotenuse of the triangle = 8

Let the height of the triangle = x

Therefore, According to Pythagoras Theorem,

{8}^{2}  -  {6}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}

=  > 64 - 36 =  {x}^{2}

=  > 28 =  {x}^{2}

=  > x =  \sqrt{28} (ans)

Can someone help me Please
alisha [4.7K]
Jane:  Think:  the hypotenuse of her ramp is 14 inches and the angle opposite the rise is 30 degrees.  Thus, cos 30 deg = (adj side) / (hyp) = (adj side) / (14 in).

Solving for (adj side), we get   (adj side) = (14 in)(sqrt(3)/2) = 7 sqrt(3) inches.

Compare the functions shown below:<br><br> Which function has the greatest maximum y-value?
solmaris [256]
Answer: It's a tie between f(x) and h(x). Both have the same max of y = 3

The highest point shown on the graph of f(x) is at (x,y) = (pi,3). The y value here is y = 3.

For h(x), the max occurs when cosine is at its largest: when cos(x) = 1. 
So,
h(x) = 2*cos(x)+1
turns into
h(x) = 2*1+1
h(x) = 2+1
h(x) = 3
showing that h(x) maxes out at y = 3 as well

--------------------------------

Note: g(x) has all of its y values smaller than 0, so there's no way it can have a max y value larger than y = 3. See the attached image to see what this graph would look like if you plotted the 7 points. A parabola seems to form. Note how point D = (-3, -2) is the highest point for g(x). So the max for g(x) is y = -2
