The answer is C) s+10 because Lupe's dog is 10 inches taller than Sarah's dog; therefore, all you have to do is add 10 inches to the height of Sarah's dog.
Answer:
c. 35.34015106
Step-by-step explanation:
As with many problems of this nature, you only need to get close to be able to choose the correct answer. 22 minutes 45 seconds is just slightly less than 1/2 degree (30 minutes), so the tangent value will be just slightly less than tan(88.5°) ≈ 38. The appropriate choice is 35.34015106.
If you need confirmation, you can find tan(88°) ≈ 29, so you know the answer will be between 29 and 38.
__
The above has to do with strategies for choosing answers on multiple-choice problems. Below, we will work the problem.
The angle is (in degrees) ...
88 + 22/60 +45/3600 = 88 + (22·60 +45)/3600 = 88 +1365/3600
≈ 88.3791666... (repeating) . . . . degrees
A calculator tells you the tangent of that is ...
tan(88.3791666...°) ≈ 35.3401510614
Many calculators will round that to 10 digits, as in the answer above. Others can give a value correct to 32 digits. Spreadsheet values will often be correct to 15 or 16 digits.
Question:
The square of a number decreased by 3 times the number is 28 find all possible values for the number
Answer:
The possible values of number are 7 and -4
Solution:
Given that the square of a number decreased by 3 times the number is 28
To find: all possible values of number
Let "a" be the unknown number
From given information,
square of a number decreased by 3 times the number = 28


Let us solve the above quadratic equation


Using the above formula,


Thus the possible values of number are 7 and -4
<u>Answer:</u>
x = 4 (extraneous solution)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

This solution is extraneous. Reason being that even if it can be solved algebraically, it is still not a valid solution because if we substitute back
, we will get two fractions with zero denominator which would be undefined.
