Find side x, giving your answer to 1 decimal place.<br> 810<br> 7 cm<br> 40°<br> Х
Andru [333]

Answer:

10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

By sine rule:

\frac{x}{ \sin 81 \degree}  =  \frac{7}{ \sin 40 \degree}  \\  \\ x = \frac{7 \sin 81 \degree}{ \sin 40 \degree}   \\  \\ x =  \frac{7 \times0.9876883406 }{0.6427876097}  \\  \\ x =  \frac{6.91381838}{0.6427876097}  \\  \\ x = 10.755992 \\  \\ x  \approx 10.8

Burka [1]

Answer:    f'(1)=\dfrac{4}{2y+1}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

To find the tangent, you need to find the derivative with respect to x.

Then substitute x = 1 into the derivative.

Given:         0 = 2x² - xy - y²

Derivative:  0 = 4x - y' - 2yy'

Solve for y': 2yy' + y' = 4x

                   y'(2y + 1) = 4x

                   y'=\dfrac{4x}{2y+1}

\text{Substitute x = 1:}\quad y'(1)=\dfrac{4}{2y+1}

An important factor in selling a residential property is the number of times real estate, agents show a home. A sample of 21 hom
Natalka [10]

Using the t-distribution to build the 99% confidence interval, it is found that:

  • The margin of error is of 3.64.
  • The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).

<h3>What is a t-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

\overline{x} \pm t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • t is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.
  • s is the standard deviation for the sample.

The critical value, using a t-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed 95% confidence interval, with 21 - 1 = 20 df, is t = 2.086.

The other parameters are given as follows:

\overline{x} = 23, s = 8, n = 21

The margin of error is given by:

M = t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.086\frac{8}{\sqrt{21}} = 3.64

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

\overline{x} - M = 23 - 3.64 = 19.36

\overline{x} + M = 23 + 3.64 = 26.64

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).

Determine whether the given sequence could be geometric, arithmetic, or neither. if possible, identify either the common ratio o
REY [17]

ARITHMETIC CHECK: A sequence is said to be arithmetic if any two consecutive terms differ by the same constant.

So, the test to check if a series is arithmetic is to compute consecutive differences, and see if they all return the same number.

If we subtract the first two terms, we have 2-4 = -2. If we subtract the third and second terms, we have 1-2 = -1.

These two differences returned two different values, so the series is not arithmetic.

GEOMETRIC CHECK: A sequence is said to be geometric if any two consecutive terms are in the same ratio.

So, the test to check if a series is geometric is to compute consecutive ratios, and see if they all return the same number.

If we divide the first two terms, we have

\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{1}{2}

If we divide the third and second terms, we have

\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}

Finally, if we divide the last two terms we have

\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{1} = \dfrac{1}{2}

So, all ratios return the same number. This means that the series is geometric, and the common ratio is 1/2
