Answer:

\displaystyle y=2\sqrt{6}

\displaystyle x=2\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric Ratios </u>

The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios.

The longest side of the right triangle is called the hypotenuse and the other two sides are the legs.

Selecting any of the acute angles as a reference, it has an adjacent side and an opposite side. The trigonometric ratios are defined upon those sides.

The image provided shows a right triangle whose hypotenuse is given. We are required to find the value of both legs.

Let's pick the angle of 30°. Its adjacent side is y. We can use the cosine ration, which is defined as follows:

\displaystyle \cos 30^\circ=\frac{\text{adjacent leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}

\displaystyle \cos 30^\circ=\frac{y}{4\sqrt{2}}

Solving for y:

y=4\sqrt{2}\cos 30^\circ

Since:

\cos 30^\circ=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

\displaystyle y=4\sqrt{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle y=2\sqrt{6}

Now we use the sine ratio:

\displaystyle \sin 30^\circ=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}

\displaystyle \sin 30^\circ=\frac{x}{4\sqrt{2}}

Solving for x:

x=4\sqrt{2}\sin 30^\circ

Since:

\sin 30^\circ=\frac{1}{2}:

\displaystyle x=4\sqrt{2}\frac{1}{2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle x=2\sqrt{2}

The choices are not clear, but it seems like the correct answer is C.

\boxed{\displaystyle y=2\sqrt{6}}

\boxed{\displaystyle x=2\sqrt{2}}

Answer:

  x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.

  (2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180

  4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)

  x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

<em>Additional comment</em>

A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and  eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.

A stock market fell 75 points over a period of 5 days. What was the average change in the stock market each day?​
seropon [69]

Answer:

15 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the 75 points by the five days to find the average points lost per day.

75 points / 5 days = 15 points per day

What is the answer for number 11. Please
Zolol [24]
#11
Each roll is 9' long, 
length of each roll = 9' * (12"/foot) = 108"
Each ribbon piece = 15", so number of ribbons per roll
=108/15=7 with 3" left over, which is assumed not possible to be joined with other pieces.
Therefore, with 5 rolls, there are 7*5=35 pieces of ribbon, with 5 pieces or 3" left over.

30. The table below shows the number of ants in an ant farm on different
Nitella [24]

Answer:

a)10

b)5120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that number of ants double after every ten days, form a table that shows numbe of ants from day 1 to day 91

Day                                                  Number of Ants

1                                                                       10

11                                                                      20

21                                                                     40

31                                                                     80

41                                                                     160

<em>51                                                                    320-----------------given</em>

<em>61                                                                    640------------------given</em>

<em>71                                                                    1280----------------given</em>

81                                                                   2560

91                                                                    5120

Using the given values for number of ants and the number of days, you can notice the trend for values of days and number of ants.After every ten days, number of ants doubles.Using this information, you can navigate backwards up to day 1 and forward up to day 91
