We are asked to find a range for x. Let's start by finding the maximum value. We know, by definition, that a side opposite a larger angle has a longer length. For example, if you think about a right triangle, the hypotenuse (the longest side) is always opposite of the right angle (the largest angle). We are given two side lengths: 23 is opposite of 42 degrees, and 21 is opposite of 3x + 15. Because 42 is opposite the longer side, 42 degrees is a larger angle than 3x + 15. We can set up the inequality and solve for x:
Now, let's look at the minimum value. We know that the angle definitely has to be larger than 0. So, we can set up that inequality and solve for x:
Now, we have our final range: -5 < x < 9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the dimensions of the playground are x and y.
The total amount of the fence used is given and it is 780 ft. In terms of x and y this would be 3x+2y=780 (we add 3x because we want it to be cut in the middle). Therefore, y= 780/2-3/2x. Now, the total area (A )to be fenced is
A=x*y= x*(390-3/2x)=-3/2 x^2+390x
Calculating the derivative of A and setting it equals to 0 to find the maximum
A'= -3x+390=0
This yields x=130.
Therefore y=780/2-3/2*130=195
Thus, the maximum area is 130*195=25,350ft^2
Slope of the line = 
.
y-intercept of the line = -7.
Solution:
General form of equation of a line:
y = mx + c
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept of the line.
Equation of a line:
To compare this with general equation.
Slope of the line = .
y-intercept of the line = -7.
Her error was dividing them by 2 she would place 1.25 over 5 then divide by 5 to get the unit rate per minute then multiply the quotient by 2 to get the rate of degrees moved for 2 minutes which is .5 or .50 degrees every two minutes.
Answer:
<u>BC = 3.1666</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you need to know that cosine∅ = adjacent/hypotenuse. We already know that hypotenuse = 5 and that ∅ = 70*. By substituting these in you will get cosine 70* = adjacent/5. Evaluate cosine 70* on the calculator and get 0.633... Multiply both sides by 5 and get adjacent is about equal to 3.1666. Because BC is the adjacent side of the triangle, this is the length of BC.
