Answer:

The first number is 14

The second number is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 8

2x + y = 25

Solving simultaneously,

2x + 4y = 16

2x + y = 25

On subtracting, we have

3y = -9

y = -3

Going to substitute for y, we have

x + 2(-3) = 8

x - 6 = 8

x = 14

IMAGE 1: Find the value of the indicated trigonometric ratio cos α
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

28.07° ; 70.53° ; 53.13° ; 36.87°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PYTHAGORAS RULE :

IMAGE 1:

value of cos α equals :

cos α = Adjacent / Hypotenus

cos α = 15 / 17

cos α = 0.88235

α = cos^-1 (0.88235)

α = 28.07°

IMAGE 2:

sin β = Opposite / Hypotenus

sin β = 14√2 / 21

sin β = 0.9428

β = sin^-1(0.9428)

β = 70.53°

IMAGE 3:

From trigonometry :

cot = 1 / tan

Tan = Opposite / Adjacent

Therefore, Cot = Adjacent / Opposite

cot γ = 3/4

cot γ = 0.75

γ = cot^-1 (0.75)

γ = 53.13°

IMAGE 4:

tan α = Opposite / Adjacent

tan α = 15 / 20

tan α = 0.75

α = tan^-1 (0.75)

α = 36.87°

One and a half x + 3/4 x equals 5/8
USPshnik [31]
1 and 1/2x+3/4x=5/8
combine x's
1 and 1/2x=4/4x+2/4x=6/4x
6/4x+3/4x=5/8=9/4x
9/4x=5/8
multiply both sides by 8
18x=5
x=5/18

x=5/18 or aprox 0.277777777777
