Use the law of cosines: c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos C

We have:

c=x\\a=3in\\b=7in\\C=54^o

substitute:

\cos54^o\approx0.5878\\\\c^2=3^2+7^2-2\cdot3\cdot7\cdot0.5878\\\\c^2=9+49-24.6876\\\\c^2=33.3129\to c=\sqrt{33.3129}\\\\c\approx5.8

Raphael graphed the functions g(x)=x+2 and f(x)=x−1. How many units below the y-intercept of g(x) is the y-intercept of f(x)? A
jasenka [17]

Answer:

3 units below the y-intercept of g(x) is the y-intercept of f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x+2 and f(x)=x-1

In f(x)= mx+b the y intercept is b

In g(x)=x+2, the y intercept value is 2

In f(x)=x-1, the y intercept value is -1

the difference in y intercept is +2-(-1)=+3

3 units below the y-intercept of g(x) is the y-intercept of f(x)

The circle will be dilated by a scale factor of 6. What is the value for n if the expression nPI represents the circumference of
IgorLugansk [536]
A dilation by a scale factor of 6 will cause the radius to increase by a factor of 6. So r_{new} = 6r. If we plug this value of r into the formula for the circumference of a circle we get C = 2\pi r_{new} = 2\pi *6r = 12\pi r

So basically N = 12r. You haven't given me any original radius, so I can't give you a constant for N, but if you do have that original radius you can just plug that into 12r.

Based on your comment, N = 12 * 9 = 108 inches

The SAT mathematics scores in the state of Florida are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard devi
ivann1987 [24]
Since the range of the scores given was between 300 and 700 (which is 2 standard deviations below and above the mean), the probability that a randomly selected student's math score - as based on the empirical rule of statistics - is 95%. In decimal form, it is .95.
