Answer:

The length of third side of triangle is 4.195 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle as shown in the figure the law of cosines states that

a^{2}=c^{2}+b^{2}-2bccos(A)

Since it is given that

b = 3 feet

c = 2 feet

A = 140^{o}

Using these values in the above equation we get

a^{2}=2^{2}+3^{2}-2\times 3\times 2cos(140)\\\\\therefore a^{2}=17.596\\\\a=4.195feet

Zach read a book for 10 minutes every weekend in the first month, 20 minutes in the second month, 40 minutes in the third month,
den301095 [7]
Zach time of reading every weekend forms a sequence with these terms: 10, 20, 40, 80. On the other hand, that of Victoria forms a sequence with terms: 35, 50, 65, 80. By keenly observing the sequences, Zach's sequence is a geometric sequence with a common ratio equal to 2 and Victoria's sequence is an arithmetic or linear sequence with a common difference of 15. Thus, the answer is letter B.

What are the domain, range, and asymptote of h(x) = 6x – 4? domain: {x | x is a real number}; range: {y | y &gt; 4}; asymptote:
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a function is the set for which the function is defined. Our function is the function h(x) = 6x-4. This function is defined regardless of the value of x, so it is defined for every real value of x. That is, it's domain is the set {x|x is a real number}.

The range of the function is the set of all possible values that the function might take, that is {y|y=6x-4}. Recall that every real number y could be written of the form y=6x-4 for a particular x. So the range of the function is the set {y|y is a real number}.

Note that as x gets bigger, the value of 6x-4 gets also bigger, then it doesn't approach any particular number. Note also that as x approaches - infinity, the value of 6x-4 approaches also - infinity. In this case, we don't have any horizontal asymptote. Since the function is defined for every real number, it doesn't have any vertical asymptote. Since h is a linear function, it cannot have any oblique asymptote, then h doesn't have any asymptote.
