The ratio of a to b is 3 to 1, and the ratio of b to c is 1 to 5. What is the value of 2a+3b/ 4b+3c?
A. 3/16
B. 9/19
C. 1/2
D. 5/7
E. 18/19

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Expressing the ratios as fractions, that is

[tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{1}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

a = 3b

[tex]\frac{b}{c}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

c = 5b

------------------------------------------

Given

[tex]\frac{2a+3b}{4b+3c}[/tex] , substitute values from above for a and c

= [tex]\frac{2(3b)+3b}{4b+3(5b)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{6b+3b}{4b+15b}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{9b}{19b}[/tex] ← cancel b on numerator/ denominator

= [tex]\frac{9}{19}[/tex] → B

Answers

Answer: x=-46

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the expression equals 0 (I'm not sure since you didn't explicitly state that, but I inferred for the sake of answering the question):

4(-8x+5)-(-33x-26)=0

-32x+20+33x+26=0

1x+46=0

x=-46

Hope that helps!

Answer:

x+46

Step-by-step explanation:

I used distribution for the first half of the equation, and got -32x+20. I used the negative on the second and mad it positive: 33x+26. I combine like terms, adding 33 to -32, got 1, then added 20 and 26. My answer was as listed above.

B. x + 0.2x

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2 is equal to 20%

x represents the amount of dollars, and 20% of x would be written as 0.2x.

The 20% of x would be added to the money before the 20%, so, the answer is b, x + 0.2x.

root 3 cosec140° - sec140°=4
prove that

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to show that [tex]\sqrt{3} cosec140^{0} - sec140^{0} = 4\\[/tex]

Proof:

From trigonometry identity;

[tex]cosec \theta = \frac{1}{sin\theta} \\sec\theta = \frac{1}{cos\theta}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{3} cosec140^{0} - sec140^{0} \\= \frac{\sqrt{3} }{sin140} - \frac{1}{cos140} \\= \frac{\sqrt{3}cos140-sin140 }{sin140cos140} \\[/tex]

From trigonometry, 2sinAcosA = Sin2A

[tex]= \frac{\sqrt{3}cos140-sin140 }{sin140cos140} \\\\= \frac{\sqrt{3}cos140-sin140 }{sin280/2}\\= \frac{4(\sqrt{3}/2cos140-1/2sin140) }{2sin280}\\\\= \frac{4(\sqrt{3}/2cos140-1/2sin140) }{sin280}\\since sin420 = \sqrt{3}/2 \ and \ cos420 = 1/2 \\ then\\\frac{4(sin420cos140-cos420sin140) }{sin280}[/tex]

Also note that sin(B-C) = sinBcosC - cosBsinC

sin420cos140 - cos420sin140 = sin(420-140)

The resulting equation becomes;

[tex]\frac{4(sin(420-140)) }{sin280}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{4sin280}{sin280}\\ = 4 \ Proved![/tex]

In ΔJKL, the measure of ∠L=90°, KL = 6 feet, and JK = 7 feet. Find the measure of ∠K to the nearest tenth of a degree.

Answers

Answer:

40.6 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We know:

KL = 6

JK = 7

Angle L = 90 degrees

So JL is the hypotenuse, meaning we can find it with Pythagorean Theorem. This gets us :

[tex]6^{2}+7^{2} = c^{2}\\c =\sqrt{85}[/tex]

We can find angle K with the following equation:

[tex]sin(k) =\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = sin(k) = \frac{6}{\sqrt{85} } = k = arcsin ( \frac{6}{\sqrt{85} }) = 40.6[/tex]

Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

\cos K = Adj/Hyp = 6/7

cosK=  7/ 6

K=\cos^{-1}(6/7)

K=cos  −1  (  6/7  )

K=31.0027≈31

Find an explicit expression that models the costs of wrapping a cube shaped box with a side length of m mm feet.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]C(m)=0.9m^2+0.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cube-shaped box with a side of m feet is given by the function:

[tex]S(m)=6m^2[/tex]

The cost, C, in dollars, of wrapping a box with a surface area of x square feet is given by the function:

[tex]C ( x ) = 0.15 x + 0.25[/tex]

We want to find an explicit expression that models the costs of wrapping a cube-shaped box with a side length of m feet.

In the cost function, C(x), x is the surface area, therefore:

[tex]S(m)=x;$ and$\\C ( S(m) ) = 0.15(6m^2) + 0.25\\C(m)=0.9m^2+0.25[/tex]

To find the cost of wrapping a cube of side length m feet, we use the explicit function:

[tex]C(m)=0.9m^2+0.25[/tex]

Use the properties of exponents to determine the value of aa for the equation: Screenshot is below

Answers

Answer:

a = -9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

We can evaluate what’s on the left hand side of the equation to get what a is.

The numerator can be expressed as x^(4/5)

The denominator is x^5/4

we use the law of indices to finish this off

That would be;

x^(4/5) ÷ x^(5/4)

Using the second law of indices;

x^(4/5-5/4) = x^-9/20

Since the bases are now equal, then we equate the powers

Thus a = -9/20

What does b=?

Answers

[tex]answer \\ b = 15 \\ please \: see \: the \: attached \: picture \: for \: full \: solution \\ hope \: it \: helps[/tex]

The measure of angle b is 15 degrees and this can be determined by using the properties of the isosceles triangle.

Given :

The length of the segment PQ is equal to the length of the segment RQ.The length of the segment PS is equal to the length of the segment RS.

The following steps can be used in order to determine the measure of angle b:

Step 1 - According to the given data, it can be concluded that triangle PQR and triangle PSR are isosceles triangles.

Step 2 - Apply the sum of interior angle property on triangle PQR.

[tex]\angle Q + \angle P + \angle R = 180[/tex]

[tex]\angle Q + 2\angle R = 180[/tex]

[tex]2\angle R = 180-60[/tex]

[tex]\angle R = 60^\circ[/tex]

Step 3 - Now, apply the sum of interior angle property on triangle PSR.

[tex]\angle P + \angle S + \angle R = 180[/tex]

[tex]\angle S + 2\angle R = 180[/tex]

[tex]2\angle R = 180-90[/tex]

[tex]\angle R = 45^\circ[/tex]

Step 4 - Now, the measure of angle b is calculated as:

[tex]\angle b = 60-45[/tex]

[tex]\angle b = 15^\circ[/tex]

The measure of angle b is 15 degrees.
