Answer:

<A = 90°, <B = 71.6° <C = 18.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertices of a △ABC to be A(−1, 6), B(2, 10), and C(7, −2)

Before we can get each angle of the triangle, we need to get its sides first.

Using the formula fie finding the distance between two points

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

For side AB:

Given A(−1, 6), B(2, 10)

AB = √{2-(-1)}²+(10-6)²

AB =√3²+4²

AB = √25

AB = 5

For side AC:

Given A(-1,6) and C(7, −2)

AC = √{7-(-1)}²+(-2-6)²

AC = √8²+8²

AC = √128

AC = √64×2

AC = 8√2

For side BC:

Given B(2,10) and C(7, −2)

BC = √(7-2)²+(-2-10)²

BC = √5²+12²

BC = √25+144

BC = √169

BC = 13

First we need to get theta using cosine rule

|AC|² = |AB|+|BC| - 2|AB||AC| cos theta

(8√2)² = 5²+13²-2(5)(13)cos theta

128 = 169-130costheta

128-169 = -130costheta

-41= -130costheta

Costheta = -41/-130

Cos theta = 0.315

theta = arccos 0.315

theta = 71.64°

<B = 71.6°

Using sine rule to get <A,

BC/sin A = AC/sinB

13/sinA = 8√2/sin71.6°

8√2sinA = 13sin71.6°

SinA = 12.34/8√2

SinA = 1.09°

A = arcsin1

<A = 90.0°

<C = 180°-(71.6+90)

< C = 180-161.6

<C = 18.4°

a resorvoir can be filled by an inlet pipe in 24 hours and emptied by an outlet pipe 28 hours. the foreman starts to fill the re
USPshnik [31]
Let's find the rate that the inlet and outlet pipe can fill and empty the reservoirs.  remember that rate*time = work done so if we let the rate of the inlet pipe be i and the outlet pipe be 0 we have
i(24) = 1
o(28) = 1
if you're confused about what the 1 is, it is the number of reservoirs because in the problem, it gives us the time it takes for each pipe to either empty or fill 1 reservoir.  solving for r and t gives us:
i = 1/24 reservoirs/hour
o = 1/28 reservoirs/hour

in the first 6 hours the inlet pipe fills up (1/24)(6) = 1/4 reservoirs and the outlet pipe empties (1/28)(6) = 3/14 reservoirs so to find out how many reservoirs are filled we subtract emptied amount from filled amount:
1/4 - 3/14 = 1/28 reservoirs (note that if the amount emptied is greater than the amount filled you will obtain a negative answer. please just change that negative number to 0 because a negative answer simply means that emptying rate is greater than filling rate so you end up with no water).
now we need to figure out how long it will take to fill up 1 reservoir given we have already filled up 1/28 reservoirs and that the outlet pipe is finally closed.  to put it in simple terms, how long will it take for the inlet pipe to fill up the rest of the 27/28 of the reservoir.  good thing we've already found the rate the inlet pipe fills up reservoirs so we have the equation:
(1/24)t = 27/28
solving for t, we have 23.14 hours.  make sure you remember to add 6 to the answer because the question wants us to include that time in our answer.  doing so gives 29.14 hours.

How many extraneous solutions does the equation below have? StartFraction 2 m Over 2 m + 3 EndFraction minus StartFraction 2 m O
xeze [42]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the fraction \frac{2m}{2m+3} -\frac{2m}{2m-3}

Step 1. Use LCM of the fraction, (2m+3)(2m-3), to simplify the fraction:

\frac{(2m-3)(2m)-(2m+3)(2m)}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =\frac{2m^2-6m-[2m^2+6m]}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =\frac{2m^2-6m-2m^2-6m}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =\frac{-12m}{(2m+3)(2m-3)}

Step 2. Equate the resulting fraction to zero and solve for m:

\frac{-12m}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =0

-12m=0[(2m+3)(2m-3)]

-12m=0

m=\frac{0}{-12}

m=0

Step 3. Replace the value in the original equation and check if it holds:

\frac{-12m}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =0

-12m=0

Since m=0,

-12(0)=0

0=0

Since the only solution of the equation holds, the equation bellow doesn't have any extraneous solution

mezya [45]
P(82 - q < x < 82 + q) = 0.44
P(x < 82 + q) - P(82 - q) = 0.44
P(z < (82 + q - 82)/7.4 - P(z < (82 - q - 82)/7.4) = 0.44
P(z < q/7.4) - P(z < -q/7.4) = 0.44
P(z < q/7.4) - (1 - P(z < q/7.4) = 0.44
P(z < q/7.4) - 1 + P(z < q/7.4) = 0.44
2P(z < q/7.4) - 1 = 0.44
2P(z < q/7.4) = 1.44
P(z < q/7.4) = 0.72
P(z < q/7.4) = P(z < 0.583)
q/7.4 = 0.583
q = 0.583 x 7.4 = 4.31
