Step-by-step explanation:

so, yes, the area of a triangle is

baseline × height / 2

so, we have here

16 = 8 × height / 2 = 4 × height

height = 16/4 = 4 in.

What is f[g(3)] for the following function? <br> f(x) = 4x2 − 3<br><br> g(x) = 5x − 2
lukranit [14]

Answer:

673

Explanation:

  • f(x) = 4(x)² − 3
  • g(x) = 5(x) − 2

solve:

  • f[g(3)]
  • f(5(3) − 2)
  • f(13)
  • 4(13)² − 3

Find the area of the shaded region. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Alex
Check the picture below on the left-side.

we know the central angle of the "empty" area is 120°, however the legs coming from the center of the circle, namely the radius, are always 6, therefore the legs stemming from the 120° angle, are both 6, making that triangle an isosceles.

now, using the "inscribed angle" theorem, check the picture on the right-side, we know that the inscribed angle there, in red, is 30°, that means the intercepted arc is twice as much, thus 60°, and since arcs get their angle measurement from the central angle they're in, the central angle making up that arc is also 60°, as in the picture.

so, the shaded area is really just the area of that circle's "sector" with 60°, PLUS the area of the circle's "segment" with 120°.

\bf \textit{area of a sector of a circle}\\\\&#10;A_x=\cfrac{\theta \pi r^2}{360}\quad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;r=radius\\&#10;\theta =angle~in\\&#10;\qquad degrees\\&#10;------\\&#10;r=6\\&#10;\theta =60&#10;\end{cases}\implies A_x=\cfrac{60\cdot \pi \cdot 6^2}{360}\implies \boxed{A_x=6\pi} \\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \textit{area of a segment of a circle}\\\\&#10;A_y=\cfrac{r^2}{2}\left[\cfrac{\pi \theta }{180}~-~sin(\theta )  \right]&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;r=radius\\&#10;\theta =angle~in\\&#10;\qquad degrees\\&#10;------\\&#10;r=6\\&#10;\theta =120&#10;\end{cases}

\bf A_y=\cfrac{6^2}{2}\left[\cfrac{\pi\cdot 120 }{180}~-~sin(120^o )  \right]&#10;\\\\\\&#10;A_y=18\left[\cfrac{2\pi }{3}~-~\cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right]\implies \boxed{A_y=12\pi -9\sqrt{3}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{shaded area}\qquad \stackrel{A_x}{6\pi }~~+~~\stackrel{A_y}{12\pi -9\sqrt{3}}\implies 18\pi -9\sqrt{3}

A person is watching a boat from the top of a lighthouse. The boat is approaching the lighthouse directly. When first noticed, t
7nadin3 [17]

To solve this problem, we can use the tan function to find for the distances covered.

tan θ = o / a

Where,

θ = angle = 90° - angle of depression

o = side opposite to the angle = distance of boat from lighthouse

a = side adjacent to the angle = height of lighthouse = 200 ft

When the angle of depression is 16°18', the initial distance from the lighthouse is:

o = 200 tan (90° - 16°18')

o = 683.95 ft

When the angle of depression is 48°51', the final distance from the lighthouse is:

o = 200 tan (90° - 48°51')

o = 174.78 ft

 

Therefore the total distance the boat travelled is:

d = 683.95 ft - 174.78 ft

<span>d = 509.17 ft</span>

PLEASE HELP!! I NEED HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM!
valkas [14]
His basic salary is $ 2,500, his commission on sales is 3% (on sales only)
At the end of te month he got $3,040

Let x be the TOTAL sales performed during this month, so the money generated from sales (only) is (x).(3%), Hence the equation:

2500 + (x).(3%) = 3040
2500 + x(0.03) = 3040
x(0.03) = 3040-2500
x(0.03) = 540

and x = 540/0.03
x = $18,000
