Answer:

176degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached. From the diagram;

arcGC = = arc BG

5x + 28 = 9x - 20

5x - 9x = -20 28

-4x = -48

x = -48/-4

x = 12

Get <AB

Since <AB = <BC

<BC = arcGC +arc BG

<AB = arcGC+ arc BG

<AB = 5x + 28 + 9x - 20

<AB = 14x + 8

<AB = 14(12) + 8

<AB = 168 + 8

<AB = 176degrees

Hence the arc AB is 176degrees

To solve the equation 5sin(2x)=3cosx, you should rewrite it as___.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve the equation:

$5\sin(2x)=3\cos(x)$

To do so, we can rewrite the equation.

Recall the double-angle for sine:

$\sin(2x)=2\sin(x)\cos(x)$

By substitution:

$5\left(2\sin(x)\cos(x)\right)=3\cos(x)$

Distribute:

$10\sin(x)\cos(x)=3\cos(x)$

We can subtract 3cos(x) from both sides:

$10\sin(x)\cos(x)-3\cos(x)=0$

And factor:

$\cos(x)\left(10\sin(x)-3\right)=0$

Hence, our answer is A.

*It is important to note that we should not divide both sides by cos(x) to acquire 10sin(x) = 3. This is because we need to find the values of x, and one or more may result in cos(x) = 0, and we cannot divide by 0. Hence, we should subtract and then factor.

Answer:

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a high school degree as their highest educational level, or they do not. The probability of an adult having it is independent of any other adult. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
