Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Put -1 where x is in each expression and evaluate it.
__
You will find that the expression is zero when the numerator is zero. And you will find the numerator is zero when it has a factor that is equivalent to ...
(x +1)
Substituting x=-1 into this factor makes it be ...
(-1 +1) = 0
__
Evaluating the first expression, we have ...
This first expression is one you want to "check."
You can see that the reason the expression is zero is that x+1 has a sum of zero. You can look for that same sum in the other expressions. (The tricky one is the one with the factor (x -(-1)). You know, of course, that -(-1) = +1.)
Y = 3
If you'd like an explaination, please, ask.
I just don't want to write all of the steps out -- yey, apathy.
Answer:
13.86 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be represented by a right angled triangle with a hypotenuse of 16 feet and an angle of 60° between the hypotenuse side and the adjacent side.
The height of the pole is the side opposite to the angle 60°.
The trigonometric function states that for a right angled triangle:
sinθ = opposite / hypotenuse, cosθ = adjacent / hypotenuse, tanθ = opposite/ adjacent
To find the height of the flagpole, we use:
sin(60) = height / 16
height = 16 * sin(60)
height = 13.86 ft
The person with the incorrect reasoning for the height of the flagpole is Charlie when he should have utilized the sin function. Because he incorrectly selected the function.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
pemdas
9-3÷1/3+1
division
3 and 1/3 becomes 1
we have 9-1+1
which simplifies to 9
