The solution of the triangle have been shown below.

To solve a triangle means to find the values of all its angles and sides. The method for solving a triangle depends on the given information.

Given that;

a/Sin A = b/SinB

Sin B = bSin A/a

B = Sin-1(bSin A/a)

B = Sin-1 (23Sin 40/17)

B = 60.4 degrees

Then we have that

C = 180 - (40 + 60.4)

= 79.4 degrees

Then;

a/sinA = c/Sin C

c= aSin C/Sin A

c = 17 * Sin 79.4/Sin 40

c =   16.71/0.643

c = 25.9

The values for the cosine and cotangent functions for the angle x is

O cos0 = -√2/2, cot0 =-1

Let the angle be x

given that the point [ -√2/2, √2/2] is on the terminal ray of angle x

the x-coordinate of the point is -√2/2 and this is the cos hence

cos x = -√2/2.

To find the cotangent

the y coordinate is the sin therefore sin x = √2/2

tan x = sin x / cosx = (√2/2) / (-√2/2) = -1

and cotangent is the reciprocal of the tangent

cot x = 1 / tan x = -1/1 = -1.

cos x = -√2/2 and cot x = -1.

If Group of students conducted an investigation to learn about "pea-plants", then the "independent-variable" is  "Water-per-day (mL)".

The "Independent-Variable" is defined as a variable which is controlled by the researcher.

In the investigation of the "pea-plants", the amount of water per day (mL) given to the plants is the independent variable because it is the variable that is intentionally varied by the students.

The students are manipulating the amount of water given to each plant to observe the effect it has on the height of the plant after two weeks.

By controlling the amount of water given to each plant, the students can determine whether there is a relationship between water intake and plant growth.

Therefore, water given to plants per-day will be the "independent-variable".

Step-by-step explanation: all the angles of the triangle have to add up to 180 you all up the other angles and you get 98. 98= angle A your trying to find the outside angle we know that a line equals 180 degrees therefore we subtract that angle from 180 and get 82 which is your answer

(i)  [tex]\lim_{x \to \frac{\pi^-}{2}}[/tex] h(x) = 3

(ii) [tex]\lim_{x \to \frac{\pi^+}{2}}[/tex] h(x) = -1

(iii) h(0) = 1/7

The value of λ must be 7, for h(x) to be continuous at x = 0.

The given function is,

h(x) = 1/7, when x = 0

      = 1 - 2 cos 2x, when x < π/2

      = 1 + 2 cos 2x, when x > π/2

      = x cos x/sin λx, when x < 0

Now,

(i) [tex]\lim_{x \to \frac{\pi^-}{2}}[/tex] h(x) = [tex]\lim_{x \to \frac{\pi^-}{2}}[/tex] (1 - 2 cos 2x) = 1 - 2 cos π = 1 + 2 = 3

(ii) [tex]\lim_{x \to \frac{\pi^+}{2}}[/tex] h(x) = [tex]\lim_{x \to \frac{\pi^+}{2}}[/tex] (1 + 2 cos 2x) = 1 + 2 cos π = 1 - 2 = -1

(iii) h(0) = 1/7

Since the function is continuous at x = 0, so

[tex]\lim_{x \to 0}[/tex] h(x) = h(0)

[tex]\lim_{x \to 0}[/tex] x cos x/sin λx = 1/7

[tex]\lim_{x \to 0}[/tex] cos x.[tex]\lim_{x \to 0}[/tex] 1/λ(sinλx/λx) = 1/7

1/λ = 1/7

λ = 7

If a₁ = 9 and sequence aₙ = -3aₙ₋₁ , then the value of a₅ is approximately equal to 729.

To find the value of a₅, we need to use the recursive formula provided, which relates each term in the sequence to the previous one. The formula given is a bit unusual, as it defines each term in terms of the negative three times the previous term. However, we can use this information to work out the value of a₅.

Starting with a₁ = 9, we can use the recursive formula to find the next few terms of the sequence:

a₂ = -3a₁ = -3(9) = -27

a₃ = -3a₂ = -3(-27) = 81

a₄ = -3a₃ = -3(81) = -243

a₅ = -3a₄ = -3(-243) = 729

Therefore, the value of a₅ is 729. We can check that this is correct by verifying that it satisfies the given recursive formula:

a₄ = -3a₃ = -3(81) = -243

a₅ = -3a₄ = -3(-243) = 729

This confirms that our solution is correct.

Part(A),

The estimated area under the graph of f(x) over the interval [3, 5] using four rectangles and right endpoints is approximately 0.231 square units.

Part(B),

The estimated area under the graph of f(x) over the interval [3, 5] using four rectangles and left endpoints is approximately 0.2405 square units.

To estimate the area under the graph of f(x) = 1/(x²+1) over the interval [3, 5] using four rectangles and right endpoints, we can use the following formula:

[tex]R_n = \dfrac{(b-a)}{n} \times [f(x_1) + f(x_2) + ... + f(x_n)],[/tex]

where a = 3, b = 5, n = 4, and xi = a + i(b-a)/n for i = 0, 1, 2, ..., n.

Using this formula with the right endpoints, we get:

[tex]R_4 = \dfrac{(5-3)}{4 }\times [f(3.5) + f(4) + f(4.5) + f(5)][/tex]

R₄ = (1/2) x [0.361 + 0.250 + 0.178 + 0.132]

R₄ = 0.231

Hence, the estimated area under the f(x) graph utilizing four rectangles and the right endpoints over the range [3, 5] is about 0.231 square units.

To repeat the approximation using left endpoints, we can use the following formula:

[tex]L_n = \dfrac{(b-a)}{n} \times [f(x_0) + f(x_1) + ... + f(x_{n-1)],[/tex]

where [tex]x_i = a + i\dfrac{(b-a)}{n}[/tex] for i = 0, 1, 2, ..., n-1.

Using this formula with left endpoints, we get:

[tex]L_4 = \dfrac{(5-3)}{4} \times [f(3) + f(3.5) + f(4) + f(4.5)][/tex]

L₄ = (1/2) x [0.250 + 0.361 + 0.250 + 0.178]

L₄ = 0.2405

Therefore, the estimated area under the graph of f(x) over the interval [3, 5] using four rectangles and left endpoints is approximately 0.2405 square units.

The length of cable in the coil that weighs 5 1/2 kilograms is 1/2 meter.

Let x be the length of cable in meters that weighs 5 1/2 kilograms.

Then, we can write:

1 meter / (75/1000) kilograms = x meters / 5.5 kilograms

Simplifying the left side, we get:

1 meter / (75/1000) kilograms = 1000 / 75 meters/kilogram

= 40/3 meters/kilogram

Substituting this into our proportion, we get:

40/3 meters/kilogram * x meters = 5.5 kilograms

Multiplying both sides by 3/40, we get:

x meters = (5.5 kilograms) * (3/40) * (40/3 meters/kilogram)

The slope of the tangent line is:

a = (df(x1)/dx)

The slope of the normal one is:

a' = -1/(df(x1)/dx)

For any function y = f(x), we define the slope of the tangent line at the point x as the derivative evaluated in x.

So if we want to find the slope of the tangent line at the point (x1, y1), we just need to differentiate and evaluate in x1, then the slope will be given by:

df(x1)/dx

And the normal slope is the slope of the perpendicular line, two slopes are perpendicular if the product is -1, then:

a*(df(x1)/dx) = -1

a = -1/(df(x1)/dx)

The probability that the number chosen is not even = 4/8

Answer:

The series ∑6n=1 3n is a sum of the first 6 terms of the sequence 3n, which starts with n = 1 and increases by 3 for each successive term. Therefore, the first 6 terms of the sequence are:

3(1), 3(2), 3(3), 3(4), 3(5), 3(6)

which simplify to:

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18

The sum of these terms is:

∑6n=1 3n = 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15 + 18 = 63

Therefore, S6, the sum of the first 6 terms of the series, is 63.

Answer:

The given sequence is decreasing by a factor of 2 each time, so each term is half of the previous term.

We can write the nth term of the sequence as:

a_n = a_1 * (1/2)^(n-1)

where a_1 is the first term of the sequence (12 in this case) and n is the position of the term we want to find.

For example, to find the 4th term of the sequence, we would have:

a_4 = 12 * (1/2)^(4-1)

= 12 * (1/2)^3

= 12 * 1/8

= 1.5

Therefore, the formula for the nth term of the sequence 12, 6, 3, ... is:

a_n = 12 * (1/2)^(n-1)

The required posterior mean prevalence is closest to 0.47.

We can use Bayes' theorem to find the posterior distribution of the prevalence parameter, given the data and the Beta prior:

posterior ∝ likelihood x prior

where the likelihood is given by the binomial distribution:

likelihood = P(observing 4 cases out of 10 | prevalence)

and the prior is a Beta distribution with parameters α = β = 10:

prior = Beta(α=10, β=10)

We can calculate the posterior distribution by multiplying the likelihood and prior, and then normalizing:

posterior = Beta(α=14, β=16)

where the posterior Beta distribution has parameters α=14 (10 + 4) and β=16 (10 + 10 - 4).

The posterior mean of a Beta distribution with parameters α and β is:

posterior mean = α / (α + β)

Plugging in the values of α and β from the posterior distribution, we get:
