Answer:

x=8.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, figure out which trig function you are going to use.

In this problem you are dealing with the opposite side to the angle and the hypotenuse, and if you remember SOH CAH TOA, this requires sine.

sin (55) =opposite/hypotenuse

sin (55) =x/10

multiply both sides by 10 to get 10 * sin (55) = x

10 * sin (55) = 8.2

Answer:

y = $\frac{\pi}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

using the addition formula for sine

sin(x + y) = sinxcosy + cosxsiny

then

sinxcosy + cosxsiny = $\frac{1}{2}$ sinx + $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ cosx

for the 2 sides to be equal , then

cosy = $\frac{1}{2}$ and siny = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

then

y = $cos^{-1}$ ( $\frac{1}{2}$ ) = $\frac{\pi }{3}$

and

y = $sin^{-1}$ ( $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ ) = $\frac{\pi }{3}$

thus y = $\frac{\pi }{3}$

Solve 2x + 5y = 20; 3x - 10y = 37 by elimination. How do you do this? Thank-you!

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x+5y=20&\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\3x-10y=37\end{array}\right\\\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}4x+10y=40\\3x-10y=37\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad7x=77\qquad\text{divide both sides by 7}\\.\qquad\boxed{x=11}\\\\\text{Put the value of x to the first equation:}\\\\2(11)+5y=20\\\\22+5y=20\qquad\text{subtract 22 from both sides}\\\\5y=-2\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\\boxed{y=-\dfrac{2}{5}}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{x=11\ and\ y=-\dfrac{2}{5}}$

3 raise to power x equal to -3

cluponka [151]

3 ^x = -3

then, x would be -1
