Find a and b such that ab = 15
and a+b = -8.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

a = -3 or -5 and b = -5 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b = -8

ab = 15

b = 15/a

b = 15/(-3)

b = -5

a(-5) = 15

(-5)a = 15

(-5)/5 = 15/-5

a = -3

a + b = -8

-3 - 5 = -8

-8 = -8

In a certain year Congress debated a bill. A poll of 1000 Americans indicated 401 opposed 293 favored 306 not sure. What is the probability that random person was in favor

Answers

So actually you have 100%
401 + 239 + 306 = 1000

Now 293 from the 1000 is favored,
So in pregnant is 293/1000 = 0.293
That’s also the probability to random person is favor (or 29.3% chance)

Find m A. 10 B. 5 C.√53 D. 10√3/3

Answers

Answer:

[tex]m = 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the angles, we can see that this is a 30-60-90 triangle.

The side that is with the 30° angle and the 90° angle is represented by [tex]x\sqrt{3}[/tex].

So let's find x.

[tex]x\sqrt{3} = 5\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Divide both sides by [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]:

[tex]x = 5[/tex].

Now the hypotenuse is always [tex]2x[/tex] (the leg with the 90° and 60° is just x.) So,

[tex]2x = 2\cdot5 = 10[/tex].

What is the solution to the system of equations below?

2x+3y=6
x-3y=9

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 6

2x = 6-3y

x = (6-3y)/2

x - 3y = 9

(6-3y)/2 -3y = 9

(6-3y)/2 -6y/2 = 9

(6-9y)/2 = 9

6 - 9y = 9×2

-9y = 18-6

y = 12/-9

y = -4/3

2x + 3y = 6

2x + 3(-4/3) = 6

2x -4 = 6

2x = 6+4

2x = 10

x = 10/2

x = 5

Therefore x = 5 and y = (-4/3)

Answer:

x = 5; y = -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

One equation has 3y. The other equation has -3y. Add the equations to eliminate y and solve for x.

     2x + 3y = 6

(+)     x - 3y = 9

---------------------

      3x        = 15

x = 5

2x + 3y = 6

2(5) + 3y = 6

3y + 10 = 6

3y = -4

y = -4/3

Answer: x = 5; y = -4/3

a. AABC has a right angle at B, BC = 4, and has an area of 10 square units. What is the

length of AB?



Answers

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A right angled triangle is a triangle that has one of this angles to be 90°. According to the ΔABC, the angle at B is 90°.

Area of a triangle = 1/2 * base * height

According to the diagram shown, the base is BC and the height is AB which is the required side.

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * BC * AB

Given area of the triangle = 10 square units

BC = 4 units

AB is the required length.

Substituting this values into the formula above;

10 = 1/2 * 4 * AB

10 = 2AB

Dividing both sides by 2

2AB/2 = 10/2

AB = 5 units

Hence the length of AB is 5 units.

Transform the polar equation to a Cartesian (rectangular) equation: r= 4sinθ

options include:

x^2+y^2 = -4

x^2+y^2 = 4

x^2+y^2 = -4y

Answers

Answer:

  x^2 +y^2 = 4y

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the usual translation relations, we have ...

  r^2 = x^2+y^2

  x = r·cos(θ)

  y = r·sin(θ)

Substituting for sin(θ) the equation becomes ...

  r = 4sin(θ)

  r = 4(y/r)

  r^2 = 4y

Then, substituting for r^2 we get ...

  x^2 +y^2 = 4y . . . . . matches the first choice

In terms of the trigonometric ratios for ΔABD, what is the length of line segment BD?

Answers

In terms of the trigonometric ratios for ΔABD, what is the length of line segment BD?

Answer:

[tex] BD = c*sin(A) [/tex]

[tex] BD = c*cos(B) [/tex]

[tex] BD = b*tan(A) [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

∆ABD is a right triangle.

Recall: trigonometric ratios of any right triangle can easily be understood or remembered with the acronym, SOHCAHTOA.

SOH => sin(θ) = opposite/hypotenuse

CAH => Cos(θ) = adjacent/hypotenuse

TOA = tan(θ) = opposite/adjacent

Thus, the length of segment BD, in terms of trigonometric ratios for ∆ABD can be done as follows:

Let BD = x

AB = c

AD = b

=>The sine ratio for the length of line segment BD = x, using SOH.

θ = A

Opposite = DB = x

hypotenuse = AB = c

[tex] sin(A) = \frac{x}{c} [/tex]

Make x the subject of formula.

[tex] c*sin(A) = x [/tex]

[tex] BD = x = c*sin(A) [/tex]

=>The Cosine ratio for the length of line segment BD = x, using CAH

θ = B

Adjacent = DB = x

hypotenuse = AB = c

[tex] cos(B) = \frac{x}{c} [/tex]

Make x the subject of formula.

[tex] c*cos(B) = x [/tex]

[tex] BD = x = c*cos(B) [/tex]

=>The Tangent ratio for the length of line segment BD = x, using TOA

θ = A

Adjacent = DB = x

hypotenuse = AD = b

[tex] tan(A) = \frac{x}{b} [/tex]

Make x the subject of formula.

[tex] b*tan(A) = x [/tex]

[tex] BD = x = b*tan(A) [/tex]

Which word describes the relationship of the points (3, 1)
and (3, 6)?
OA) collinear
OB) parallel
C) perpendicular
OD) coincident

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A)  collinear

Step-by-step explanation:

"Parallel" and "perpendicular" are descriptors of pairs of lines and planes. They do not apply to pairs of points.

The two points have different coordinates, so are distinct, rather than coincident.

Of these words, the only applicable choice is "collinear."

__

Additional comment

Any pair of distinct points is collinear. Two points define a line, and two points on the same line are collinear.

Suppose you earn 2% cash back at grocery stores and 1% on all other purchases. If you spent $485.72 at the grocery store and $671.28 on all other purchases, how much would your cash back be?

Answers

Answer:

$16.43.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the grocery store, you spent $485.72. With 2% cashback, you would get 485.72 * 0.02 = 9.7144 dollars worth of cashback.

At other places, you spend $671.28. With 1% cashback, you would get 671.28 * 0.01 = 6.7128 dollars worth of cashback.

9.7144 + 6.7128 = 16.4272, which is about $16.43 of cashback.

Hope this helps!
