Answer:
x = 9
y = 9√3 = 15.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle given is a right triangle, therefore:
✔️apply trigonometric ratio formula to find x:
Reference angle = 60°
Hypotenuse = 18
Adjacent = x
Thus:
Cos (60) = x/18
Multiply both sides by 18
18×cos(60) = x
9 = x
x = 9
✔️find y by applying pythagorean theorem:
y² = 18² - x² (pythagorean theorem)
y² = 18² - 9² (substitution)
y² = 243
y = √243
y = √(81*3)
y = 9√3 = 15.6
Let Ch and C denote the events of a student receiving an A in <u>ch</u>emistry or <u>c</u>alculus, respectively. We're given that
P(Ch) = 88/520
P(C) = 76/520
P(Ch and C) = 31/520
and we want to find P(Ch or C).
Using the inclusion/exclusion principle, we have
P(Ch or C) = P(Ch) + P(C) - P(Ch and C)
P(Ch or C) = 88/520 + 76/520 - 31/520
P(Ch or C) = 133/520
5x - 2y = -6 ⇒ 10x - 4y = -12
2x - 1y = 1 ⇒ <u>10x - 5y = 5</u>
y = -17
5x - 2(-17) = -6
5x + 34 = -6
<u> - 34 - 34</u>
<u>5x</u> = <u>-40</u>
5 5
x = -8
(x, y) = (-8, -17)
2x + 3y = 432 ⇒ 10x + 15y = 2160
5x + 2y = 16 ⇒ <u>10x + 4y = 32</u>
<u>11y</u> = <u>2128</u>
11 11
y = 193.4545455
2x + 3(193.4545455) = 432
2x + 580.3636364 = 432
<u> - 580.3636364 - 580.3636364</u>
<u>2x</u> = <u>-148.3636364</u>

x = -74.1818182
(x, y) = (-74.1818184, 193.4545455)
Steps:
1. Multiply the first line by 3 and the second by 2
3(3x + 2y= 4)
2(8x -3y=-6)
2. New lines are
9x + 6y= 12
16x + -6y=-12
3. Now add/subtract them
25x + 0= 0
25x=0
4. Divide by 25
X=0
5. To find y, substitute the 0 in the x in one of the equations
9x + 6y= 12
9(0) + 6y= 12
6y= 12
6. Divide by 6, your Y=2
7. X=0, Y=2
