ANSWER:
d. x = 15, y= 15√3
EXPLANATION:
This is a special triangle, more specifically a 30-60-90 degree triangle. For sake of not confusing x and y, we will use z to use as our reference for solving this triangle. The side lengths for each angle are as follows:
• 60 degrees = z√3
- this is the value for your y answer
• 30 degrees = z
- this is the value for your x answer
• Hypotenuse = 2z
- this is what we already have
We solve for what we already have which is the Hypotenuse = 30:
2x = 30
x = 15
We now have our x value which is 15.
Now we just plug in that x value for every expression for every angle.
x = 15
y = 15√3
Sorry if I explained it too thoroughly but I’ll be glad to answer any questions or clarifications
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the piecewise function:
And we want to find f(8).
Since our input value is 8, choose the equation that fits our input.
The first equation demand x to be less than 3. 8 is not less than 3, so we won't use that.
The second equation demand x to e greater than or equal to 3 and less than 8. 8 is <em>not</em> less than 8. So, we won't use that.
The third equation demands x to be greater than or equal to 8. 8 is greater than or equal to 8, so we'll use the third equation.
So:
There're nothing more to do, we're done :)
The answer is A.
