Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the 2 after the j is a square. So, we bring the 21 to the other side by subtracting it from both sides, getting 144j^2=64. Now we divide to get 64/144 = j^2. Make sure NOT to simplify it, it's perfect right now. The square root of that is $\sqrt{64}/ \sqrt{144}$ , or 8/12, which we can now simplify to 2/3. Hope this helps!

If tan x =8/15 and 0°<x<90°,find the value of cos x

Answer:

15/17

Step-by-step explanation:

cos(arctan(8/15)) = 15/17

You could assume the ratio values 8 and 15 represent the opposite and adjacent sides of a right triangle. Then the hypotenuse is ...

h = √(8² +15²) = √289 = 17

The cosine is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse, so is ...

cos(x) = 15/17

Solve H=p-a/3w for p

IRINA_888 [86]

The variable we need to isolate is P. In order to do so, we add a / 3w on both sides.

P = $H -\frac{a}{3w}$

Identify the properties of equality needed to isolate a varaible and solve a given equation. Use the drop-down menus to show you

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

If two expressions are equal to each other, and you add the same value to both sides of the equation, the equation will remain equal. When you solve an equation, you find the value of the variable that makes the equation true. In order to solve the equation, you isolate the variable.
