the complete question is
Point A has an x coordinate of −2 and lies in a circle with a center at (0, 0) and a radius of 5.
To the nearest tenth, what is the y-coordinate for point A?
A: 4.5
B: 4.6
C: 4.7
D: 4.8
see the attached figure

we know that
the equation of the circle is
(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²
(h,k) is the center---------> (h,k) is the point (0,0)
r=5 units
so
(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²--------> (x-0)²+(y-0)²=5²------> x²+y²=25

substitute the value of x=-2 in the equation
(-2)²+y²=25------> y²=25-4------> y=(+/-)√21
the y coordinate of point A is positive----> see the picture
therefore
y=√21-----> 4.58-----> y=4.6

the answer is
the y-coordinate for point A is 4.6

In a film, an actor played an elderly uncle character is criticized for marrying a woman when he is 3 times her age. He wittily

yanalaym [24]

Answer:the uncle is 54 years old.

The woman is 18 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the age of the uncle.

Let y represent the age of the woman that he married.

In the film, an actor played an elderly uncle character is criticized for marrying a woman when he is 3 times her age. This means that

x = 3y

He wittily replies, "Ah, but in 18 years time I shall only be twice her age. It means that

x + 18 = 2(y + 18)

x + 18 = 2y + 36 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 3y into equation 1, it becomes

3y + 18 = 2y + 36

3y - 2y = 36 - 18

y = 18

x = 3y = 3 × 18

x = 54

If sin(x) = 1/3 and sec(y) = 25/24 , where x and y lie between 0 and π/2, evaluate the expression using trigonometric identities

Dominik [7]

sin(x-y) = (24-14*sqrt(2))/75 Write down what you know sin(x) = 1/3 sec(y) = 25/24 cos(y) = 1/sec(y) = 24/25 cos(x) = sqrt(1-sin(x)^2) = sqrt(1-1/9) = sqrt(8/9) = 2*sqrt(2)/3 sin(y) = sqrt(1-cos(y)^2) = sqrt(1-576/625) = sqrt(49/625) = 7/25 We now know the sin and cos of both x and y. Now to get the sin of x-y. sin(x-y) = sin(x)cos(y) - cos(x)sin(y) Substitute the known values for sin and cos of x and y, then evaluate and simplify sin(x-y) = (1/3)(24/25) - (2*sqrt(2)/3)(7/25) sin(x-y) = 24/75 - 14*sqrt(2)/75 sin(x-y) = (24-14*sqrt(2))/75

Anika wants to determine The maximum number of tulip bulbs (T) she can purchase if each bulb costs $1.50. She will also need to

PtichkaEL [24]

T( 1.50+ 1.25) + 10.00 < 20.00 2.75t + 10.00 < 20.00 2.75t < 10.00 T < 3.63 Partial bulbs and puts can't be bought, so Anika cannot spent the full $20.00. Therefore, t < 3 if t can be a whole number.

Can please solve this? x⁴+2x³-13x²+24=0

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

1. x = 4

2. x = 2

3. x = -1

4. x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (x4)-(2•(x3)))-13x2)+14x)+24 = 0

2. ((x4) - 2x3) - 13x2) + 14x) + 24 = 0

3. Find roots (zeroes) of : F(x) = x4-2x3-13x2+14x+24

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of x for which F(x)=0

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers x which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number P/Q then P is a factor of the Trailing Constant and Q is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is 1 and the Trailing Constant is 24.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient : 1

of the Trailing Constant : 1 ,2 ,3 ,4 ,6 ,8 ,12 ,24

In a right triangle, angle a measures 20. The side opposite angle a is 10 centimeters long. Approximately how long is the hypote

AleksAgata [21]

sin(angle)=opposite leg/hypotenuse

sin(20) = 10/ hypotenuse

hypotenuse = 10/sin(20) = 29.238 ( round off as necessary)
