Answer:

Tan T = 7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, please check attachment to have a picture of the triangle we are solving.

Now, we are concerned with calculating the ratio that represents the tangent of angle T.

Mathematically, the tangent of an angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite to the length of the adjacent.

In this question, our opposite is 7 while the adjacent is 24.

Thus Tan T = 7/24

$1.\\ a)\ y=2x-3\ \ \ |subtract\ y\ from\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{2x-y-3=0}\\\\b)\ y=\dfrac{1}{3}x-\dfrac{2}{5}\ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 15\\\\15y=5x-3\cdot2\ \ \ |subtract\ 15y\ from\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{5x-15y-6=0}$

$2.\\a)\ 5x-y+3=0\ \ \ |add\ y\ to\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{y=5x+3}\\\\d)\ 7x+2y-3=0\ \ \ |subtract\ 7x\ from\ both\ sides\\\\2y-3=-7x\ \ \ |add\ 3\ to\ both\ sides\\\\2y=-7x+3\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\\boxed{y=-3.5x+1.5}$

Write the equation of the line that represents this graph. Explain how you determined the equations.

AlekseyPX

First I chose two points on the line that fall on 2 intervals or 2 lines. Then if found the slope of the two points. Using the slope and one of the points I pugged the numbers into an equation to solve for b. Once I found b I wrote an equation using b and the slope.
y=-2/3+300
steps:
(250,200)(300,100)
100-200/300-150
-100/150 or -2/3
100=-2/3(300)+b
100=-200+b
300=b
y=-2/3b+300

If 2^n + 1 is an odd prime for some integer n, prove that n is a power of 2. (H

vovikov84 [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

We will prove by contradiction. Assume that $2^n + 1$ is an odd prime but n is not a power of 2. Then, there exists an odd prime number p such that $p\mid n$ . Then, for some integer $k\geq 1$ ,
