O Double one side of the base of the pyramid.
O Double the slant height.
• Double the height.

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Doubling the height will guarantee that the volume gets twice since V=(1/3)*B*h

If Bob wants to create a pyramid of volume 28 then he needs to double the height of the pyramid.

What is a pyramid?

Design or construction with a base that is a polygon and sides that are three or more triangles that come together at the top.

A pyramid is a 3D shape where 3 triangle comes and meet in such a way that the base side creates a triangle.

The volume of a pyramid is given by

Volume = (1/3)base²×height.

Let say

Base width is = w

Height is = h

Volume V = w²h/3

Given

14 = w²h/3

For volume to be 28

28 = w²(2h)/3

So it is clear that he needs to double the height.

↪y=180°-130°

↪y=50°

.°.y = 50°

Answer:

x = 60°, y = 50°

Step-by-step explanation

We know: the angles measures in a triangle add up to 180°.

(look at the picture)

z + 50 + 60 = 180

z + 110 = 180    subtract 110 from both sides

z = 70°

x + 50 + 70 = 180

x + 120 = 180         subtract 120 from both sides

x = 60°

Angles x, y, and z are on one side of a straight line. Therefore they add to 180°.

x + y + z = 180

60 + y + 70 = 180

y + 130 = 180         subtract 130 from both sides

y = 50°

the area of a square poster is 27 in.2. Find the length of one side of the poster to the nearest tenth of an inc

Answers

Answer:

5.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the side of the square poster.

The area of it is:

● A = a^2

● 27 = a^2

● a = √27

● a = √(9×3)

● a = 3√3

● a = 5.19

Round it to the nearest tenth

● a = 5.2 inches

The length of one side of the poster is approximately 5 inches rounded to nearest tenth.

What is rounding of numbers ?

We round numbers because they are easy to deal with and they also retain their value to that place they have been rounded.

According to the given question the area of a square poster is 27inch².

We have to determine the length of one side of the poster.

We know area of a square is (side)².

∴ (side)² = 27.

side = [tex]\sqrt{27}[/tex].

We know [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] is 5 and [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex] is 6 so [tex]\sqrt{27}[/tex] will lie between 5 and 8 and much closer to 5.

Answers

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

angle = 70°

force = 20 lb

horizontal component

Process

To solve this problem just imagine a right triangle, where the force is the hypotenuse and the horizontal component is the adjacent side.

1.- Look for a trigonometric function that relates the adjacent side and the hypotenuse.

                  cos Ф = adjacent side / hypotenuse

- Solve for the adjacent side

                  adjacent side = hypotenuse x cosФ

- Substitution

                  adjacent side = 20 x cos 70

- Simplification

                  adjacent side = 20 x 0.342

- Result

                  adjacent side = 6.84 ≈ 7 lb

Answers

Answer:

76 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angles be x, y and z

As per given:

x= 66z = 57 + 1/2yx+y+z = 180

Considering the first 2 equations in the third one:

66 + y + 57 + 1/2y = 1801.5y = 180 - (66+57)1.5y = 57y = 57/1.5y = 38

Answers

Answer:  D. (-2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we do two reflections to the point (-1, 2).

First, we do a reflection over the line x = y.  Remember that a reflection over a line keeps constant the distance between our point and the given line, so we have that for a pint (x, y), the reflection over the line y = x is:

Ry=x (x, y) = (y, x)

so for our point, we have:

Ry=x (-1, 2) = (2, -1)

Now we do a reflection over the y-axis, again, a reflection over a line keeps constant the distance between our point and the given line, so if we have a point (x,y) and we do a reflection over the y-axis, our new point will be:

Ry-axis (x,y) = (-x, y)

Then in our case:

Ry-axis (2, -1) = (-2, -1)

How to estimate the value of x?

To estimate the value of x, bring the variable to the left side and bring all the remaining values to the right side. Simplify the values to estimate the result.

Let x be the number

From the given information, we get

(x/2) - 3 = x/3

The set all the fractions on one side and constants on another side

(x/2) - (x/3) = 3

Multiply by LCM

3x - 18 = 2x

Add 18 to both sides

3x - 18 + 18 = 2x + 18

simplify

3x = 2x + 18

Subtract 2x from both sides

3x - 2x = 2x + 18 - 2x

x =18.

Therefore, the number is x = 18.

The distribution is positively skewed.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's not symmetric because the distribution in the chart isn't equally shown or marked. It's not negative skewed either because for it to be negative the graph would have to go down in a negative direction, usually the left, but in the picture you posted the graph is going down in the right direction. Lastly, positively skewed graphs or charts look like the one you posted. They go down in the right direction, hence why they're called "positively" skewed. The right tail of the distribution is longer in positively skewed graphs or charts.

prove that (3-4sin^2)(1-3tan^2)=(3-tan^2)(4cos^2-3)

Answers

Answer:

Proof in the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

I expanded both sides as a first step. (You may use foil here if you wish and if you use that term.)

This means we want to show the following:

[tex]3-9\tan^2(\theta)-4\sin^2(\theta)+12\sin^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

[tex]=12\cos^2(\theta)-9-4\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)+3\tan^2(\theta)[/tex].

After this I played with only the left hand side to get it to match the right hand side.

One of the first things I notice we had sine squared's on left side and no sine squared's on the other. I wanted this out. I see there were cosine squared's on the right. Thus, I began with Pythagorean Theorem here.

[tex]3-9\tan^2(\theta)-4\sin^2(\theta)+12\sin^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

[tex]3-9\tan^2(\theta)-4(1-\cos^2(\theta))+12\sin^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)[tex]

Distribute:

[tex]3-9\tan^2(\theta)-4+4\cos^2(\theta)+12\sin^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

Combine like terms and reorder left side to organize it based on right side:

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+12\sin^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

After doing this, I since that on the left we had products of sine squared and tangent squared but on the right we had products of cosine squared and tangent squared. This problem could easily be fixed with Pythagorean Theorem again.

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+12\sin^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+12(1-\cos^2(\theta))\tan^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+12\tan^2(\theta)-12\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

Combined like terms while keeping the same organization as the right:

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+3\tan^2(\theta)-12\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

We do not have the same amount of the mentioned products in the previous step on both sides. So I rewrote this term as a sum. I did this as follows:

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+3\tan^2(\theta)-12\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+3\tan^2(\theta)-4\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-8\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

Here, I decide to use the following identity [tex]\cos\theta)\tan(\theta)=\sin(\theta)[/tex]. The reason for this is because I certainly didn't need those extra products of cosine squared and tangent squared as I didn't have them on the right side.

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+3\tan^2(\theta)-4\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-8\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+3\tan^2(\theta)-4\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-8\sin^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

We are again back at having sine squared's on this side and only cosine squared's on the other. We will use Pythagorean Theorem again here.

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+3\tan^2(\theta)-4\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-8\sin^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+3\tan^2(\theta)-4\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-8(1-\cos^2(\theta))-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]4\cos^2(\theta)-1+3\tan^2(\theta)-4\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)-8+8\cos^2(\theta)-9\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]12\cos^2(\theta)-9+3tan^2(\theta)-4\cos^2(\theta)\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

Reorder again to fit right side:

[tex]12\cos^2(\theta)-9+4\cos^2(\theta)\tan(\theta)+3\tan^2(\theta)[/tex]

This does match the other side.

The proof is done.

Note: Reordering was done by commutative property.

Can i please get some help im pretty desperate and will give brainiest to first answer with some steps, just try your best please

Answers

Answer:

To calculate the vertex you can use the vertex form ( i searched about the vertex and found it) but i don't know how to use it so i used another method.

The vertex is where the function inverts (y values) so it is going to be or a maximum or a minimum of the function. To calculate the min/max you derivate the function and then equal it to zero.

1) y  = -3x^2 -12x -10

the derivative of y is y' = -6x -12 = -6(x+2)

y'=0 <=>  -6(x+2) = 0 <=> x+2=0 <=> x=-2

y(-2) = -3(-2)^2 -12*(-2) -10 = 2

So the vertex is the point (-2,2) .

Because the slope of the equation is negative that means that the vertex is going to be the maximum , so the maximum is (-2,2) .

To find another 4 points you just have to pick values of x and replace them in the equation y  = -3x^2 -12x -10  to find y.

2) y = -2x^2 -12x -16

Do the same thing we did in point 1

y'= -4x-12 = -4(x+3)

y'=0 <=>  -4(x+3) = 0 <=> x+3=0 <=> x=-3

y(-3) = -2(-3)^2 -12*(-3) -16 = 2

So the vertex is the point (-3,2) .
