Answer:

  12.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Trig functions relate the sides and angles in a right triangle. Here, we're given an angle and an adjacent side, and we're asked to find the hypotenuse. The relevant trig relation is ...

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

  cos(50°) = DE/CD = (8.1 ft)/CD

Solving for CD, we find ...

  CD = (8.1 ft)/cos(50°) ≈ 12.601 ft

The length of CD is about 12.6 feet.

A circular racetrack has a diameter of 1/2 mile. How far does a car travel in one lap around the track? Round to the nearest ten
dlinn [17]
Given:
Circular racetrack with a diameter of 1/2 mile

Find: how far does a car travel in one lap around the track?

We need to find the circumference of the racetrack.

Circumference is multiplying pi to the diameter of the racetrack.

Circumference = 3.14 * 1/2 mile
Circumference = 3.14/2 mile
Circumference = 1.57 miles rounded to the nearest tenth is 1.60 miles.

Can someone help me find the value of z? ⅔z + 1 = 13
sergey [27]

Answer:

z = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ⅔z + 1 = 13

Subtract one from both sides: ⅔z = 12

Multiply both sides by the inverse of 2/3, which is 3/2: z = 18

Solve the equation (1 + x²)dy +xydx= 0​
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

y=\frac{c}{\sqrt[]{x^2+1} }

Step-by-step explanation:

(1 + x²)dy +xydx= 0​

(1+x^2)dy=-xydx\\\frac{1}{y}dy=\frac{-x}{x^2+1}dx\\

Integrate both side

lny=-\frac{1}{2} ln(x^2+1)+c\\y=\frac{c}{\sqrt[]{x^2+1} }

Solve for c<br> -40= -5c — 25
Vikki [24]

Answer:

c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve the problem,

→ -40 = -5c - 25

→ -5c = -40 + 25

→ -5c = -15

→ c = -15/-5

→ [ c = 3 ]

Hence, the value of c is 3.
