Using complementary angles, it is found that a solution to the given equation is:

D. x = 16, sin 38° = cos 52°.

Two angles are called complementary if the sum of their measures is of 90º. If two angles A and B are complementary, we have that:

cos(A) = sin(B) and sin(A) = cos(B).

In this problem, the expression is:

cos(3x + 4) = sin(2x + 6).

Hence:

3x + 4 + 2x + 6 = 90

5x = 80

The value of line AL is 21. 51cm

To find line AL,

Using

Sin α = opposite/ hypotenuse to find line AB

Sin 90 = x/ 24

1 = x/24

Cross multiply

x = 24cm

Now, let's find line AC

Sin angle B = line AC/24

Note that to find angle B

angle A + angle B + angle C = 180

But angle B = 2 Angle A

x + 2x + 90 = 180

3x + 90 = 180

3x = 180-90

x = 30°

Angle B = 2 × 30 = 60°

Sin 60 = x/ 24

0. 8660 = x/24

Cross multiply

x = 24 × 0. 8660

x = 20. 78cm

We have the angle of A  in the given triangle to be divide into two by the bisector, angle A = 15°

To find line AL, we use

Cos = adjacent/ line AL

Cos 15 = 20. 78/ line AL

Line AL = 20. 78/ cos 15

Line AL = 20. 78 / 0. 9659

Line AL = 21. 51 cm

Thus, the value of line AL is 21. 51cm

The equation of the parabola is y = 0.015x^2 + 0.06x + 1

A parabola is represented as:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The points are given as:

(-4,1), (-2,0.94) and (0,1)

When these points are substituted in y = ax^2 + bx + c, we have the following linear equations

16a - 4b + c = 1

4a - 2b + c = 0.94

c = 1

In (a), we have:

16a - 4b + c = 1

4a - 2b + c = 0.94

c = 1

Remove the variables (leaving the coefficients)

a      b       c

16    -4      1        1

4      -2     1        0.94

0      0     1          1

So, the matrix representation of the system of equations is:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}16&-4&1\\4&-2&1\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}1&0.94&1\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.125&-0.25&0.125\\0.25&-1&0.75\\0&0&1\end{array}\right][/tex]

Using a graphing calculator, we have the solution to the system of equations to be

a = 0.015

b = 0.06

c = 1

Recall that:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

So, we have:

Divide 90 by 2

[tex]\frac{45\cos(\frac{\pi}{4}) i\sin(\frac{\pi}{4})}{\cos(\frac{\pi}{12}) i\sin(\frac{\pi}{12})}[/tex]

As a general rule, we have:

The above means that:

A = 4 and B = 12

So, we have:

2B/A = 6

So, the equation becomes

[tex]\frac{\cos(\frac{\pi}{4}) i\sin(\frac{\pi}{4})}{\cos(\frac{\pi}{12}) i\sin(\frac{\pi}{12})} = \cos(\frac{\pi}{6}) + i\sin(\frac{\pi}{6})[/tex]

Hello !

    3y + 12 =2(y + 30)

⇔ 3y + 12 = 2y + 60

⇔ y + 12 = 60

⇔ y = 60 - 12

⇔ y = 48

Answer:

y = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

3y + 12 is an exterior angle of the triangle , so

3y + 12 = y + 30 + y + 30 ( base angles of an isosceles Δ are congruent )

3y + 12 = 2y + 60 ( subtract 2y from both sides )

y + 12 = 60 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

y = 48

Answer:

y = (-2/3)x + 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept. You have been given the value of "m". To find the value of "b", you can plug the slope and the values from the point (2, -1/2) into the general equation.

m = -2/3

Point (2, -1/2):

x = 2 and y = -1/2

y = mx + b                                  <----- Slope-intercept form

y = (-2/3)x + b                            <----- Insert -2/3 in "m"

-1/2 = (-2/3)(2) + b                      <----- Insert "x" and "y" values from point

-1/2 = -4/3 + b                            <----- Multiply -2/3 and 2

-3/6 = -8/6 + b                           <----- Give the fractions common denominators

5/6 = b                                      <----- Add 8/6 to both sides

Thus, the equation of the line is:

y = (-2/3)x + 5/6

The student, who suggests that if we do half and half of each bag, we will be giving them at least 60%, is correct.

The phrase "at least" means the minimum that is true or possible.

Mathematically, by "at least," we mean 'equal to or greater than.'

Since each bag of nuts contain 16 ounces,

The 1st bag contains x/2 ounces (50%) of plain nuts and x/2 ounces (50%) of chocolate-covered nuts.

The 2nd bag contains x/5 ounces (20%)of plain nuts and 4x/5 ounces (80%) of chocolate-covered nuts.

If half of the 1st bag is mixed with half of the 2nd bag, each bag will contain only 65% (that is, 25% (50%/2) from the 1st bag and 40% (80%/2) from the 2nd bag).

Thus, the student, who suggests that if we do half and half of each bag, we will be giving them at least 60%, is correct since they will not be given less than 60% of chocolate-covered nuts inside.
