The sum of 5 times a number and 8 is equal to 9

Mathematics
1 answer:
Irina-Kira [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The unknown number is \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make the unknown number x.

The sum of 5 TIMES a number (x) & 8 is 9.

Let's write it mathematically.

5x + 8 =9

We are trying to find the unknown number, so let's remove all the numbers from the left side to find x. Minus 8.

5x=1

5x is basically 5 times x, so to find x, we need to divide and from there we can remove 5.

x= \frac{1}{5}

Which of the following is not equal to sin⁡(-230°)?
xenn [34]

From trigonometry we know that:

if sin(\theta)=sin(\alpha)

then, \theta=n\pi+(-1)^n\alpha (where n is an integer)

This can be rewritten in degrees as:

\theta=n(180^{\circ})+(-1)^n\alpha.............(Equation 1)

Now, in our case, \alpha=-230^{\circ}

Therefore, (Equation 1) can be written as:

\theta=n(180^{\circ})+(-1)^n(-230^{\circ})..........(Equation 2)

Now, to find the correct options all that we have to do is replace n by relevant integers and find the values of \theta that match.

For n=2, (Equation 2) gives us: \theta=2\times 180^{\circ}+(-1)^2(-230^{\circ})=360^{\circ}-230^{\circ}=130^{\circ}.

Thus, sin(230^{\circ})=sin(130^{\circ})

Now, we know that: -sin(-50^{\circ})=sin(50^{\circ})

Let n=-1, then:

\theta=(-1)\times 180^{\circ}+(-1)^{-1}(-230^{\circ})=-180^{\circ}+230^{\circ}=50^{\circ}

Thus, sin(-230^{\circ})=-sin(-50^{\circ})

Likewise, sin(-230^{\circ})=sin(50^{\circ})

Only the last option sin(-50^{\circ}) will never match sin(-230^{\circ}) because no integral value of n will ever give \theta=-50^{\circ}

Thus the last option is the correct option.

one bag of pretzels cost three dollars. five bags of pretzels cost $10.which has the lower unit price
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
5 bags is cheaper because one bag is $3 and 5 bags for ten so to find the unit price the amount (10/ ) the amount of bags (5) so therefore 10/5= $2 which is smaller than the price of an individual bag

Beth will borrow $10,000 which earns 4% compound interest and she will repay that amount in 20 years. How much interest was earn
Serggg [28]

Answer:

I=\$11,911.23

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that    

The compound interest formula is equal to  

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}  

where  

A is the amount that she will repay  

P is the amount borrowed  

r is the rate of interest  in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods  

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have  

t=20\ years\\ P=\$10,000\\ r=0.04\\n=1  

substitute in the formula above  

A=10,000(1+\frac{0.04}{1})^{1*20}  

A=10,000(1.04)^{20}  

A=\$21,911.23  

Find out the interest

I=A-P

substitute the values

I=\$21,911.23-\$10,000=\$11,911.23
