Answer 1

Answer: C. - √2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given requirements from the question

Find the exact value of sec 135°

Convert into common trigonometric expression

sec = secant

secx = 1 / cosx

Therefore, sec 135° = 1 / (cos 135°)

Find the reference angle

135° is quite a complicated angle, but it is possible to simplify it by finding its reference angle.

Since 135° is in the second quadrant, its reference angle will be

                                         180° - 135° = 45°

However, we need to consider the positive and negative.

In a coordinate plane, the clue is (A S T C), which corresponds to the positive values in each quadrant. In the QI, "All" are positive. In the QII, sine is positive. In the QIII, the tangent is positive. In QIV, cosine is positive.

Therefore, when the value of cosine is in QII, it is negative.

The reference angle = - (1 / cos 45°)

Determine the final value

Given that the reference angle = - (1 / cos 45°)

cos 45° = 1 / √2

Therefore:

sec 135° = - (1 / cos 45°) = - (1 / (1 / √2)) = [tex]\boxed{-\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

How to analyze a geometric system

Herein we have a geometric system formed by three big semicircles and a small circle, whose geometric diagram is attached below. (a) The relationship between the semicircles and the circle is represented by two formulae:

8² + h² = (8 + r)²     (1)

h + r = 8                  (2)

Where r is the radius of the small circle.

Then, we solve the system:

8² + (8 - r)² = (8 + r)²

64 + 64 - 16 · r + r² = 64 + 16 · r + r²

32 · r = 64

r = 2

The radius of the small sphere is 2 centimeters.

(b) The measure of the angle XAB is found by trigonometric relations:

cos m ∠ XAB = OA / AX

cos m ∠ XAB = 8 / 10

m ∠ XAB ≈ 36.870°

The measure of the angle XAB is approximately 36.870°.

(c) The area of the shaded region is the area of the triangle minus the area of the three circular sections:

A = 0.5 · (16 cm) · (10 cm) · sin 36.870° - (36.870° /180) · π · (8 cm)² - 0.5 · (106.260° / 180) · π · (2 cm)²

A ≈ 3.107 cm²

The area of the shaded region is approximately 3.107 square centimeters.

Graph B - Expense Graph.

3. Zandi won't make a profit while selling 5 toys.

4. Zandi must sell 10 toys to reach break-even.

5. Zandi's variable cost per toy is $15.

6. The total cost function is, total cost = 100 + 15x.

1. The independent variable will be the number number of toys marked on the x-axis, whereas the dependent variable will be the amount on the y-axis, as the cost and revenue both depend on the units.

2. Graph A will be Zandi's income as when the unit is 0, the income is 0, whereas graph B is the expense graph as when the unit is 0, still some fixed expenses are generated for example rent.

3. Zandi will make a loss while making and selling 5 toys as the amount on graph B corresponding to 5 toys, that is, the expenses, are greater than the amount on graph A corresponding to 5 toys, that is, the income.

4. The break-even is the point where the income = expense, which on the graph is at the point where the number of toys is 10.

Thus, Zandi must sell 10 boys to reach break even.

5. The variable cost per toy can be found as the slope of the expense graph, m = (400 - 100)/(20 - 0) = 300/20 = 15.

Thus, Zandi's variable cost is $15.

6. Total cost = Fixed cost + a number of units*variable costs.

Thus, the total cost = 100 + 15x.

An airplane travels 6111 kilometers against the wind in 9 hours and 7911 kilometers with the wind in the same amount of time. What is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind

Answers

Answer:

Speed of the plane in still air: [tex]779\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex].

Windspeed: [tex]100\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that [tex]x\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex] is the speed of the plane in still air, and that [tex]y\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex] is the speed of the wind.

When the plane is travelling against wind, the ground speed of this plane (speed of the plane relative to the ground) would be [tex](x - y)\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex]. When this plane is travelling in the same direction as the wind, the ground speed of this plane would be [tex](x + y)\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex].

The question states that when going against the wind ([tex]v = (x - y)\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex],) the plane travels [tex]6111\; {\rm km}[/tex] in [tex]9\; {\rm h}[/tex]. Hence, [tex]9\, (x - y) = 6111[/tex].

Similarly, since the plane travels [tex]7911\; {\rm km}[/tex] in [tex]9\; {\rm h}[/tex] when travelling in the same direction as the wind ([tex]v = (x + y)\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex],) [tex]9\, (x + y) = 7911[/tex].

Add the two equations to eliminate [tex]y[/tex]. Subtract the second equation from the first to eliminate [tex]x[/tex]. Solve this system of equations for [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex]: [tex]x = 779[/tex] and [tex]y = 100[/tex].

Hence, the speed of this plane in still air would be [tex]779\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex], whereas the speed of the wind would be [tex]100\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}}[/tex].

A matrix with 2 rows and 2 columns, where row 1 is 1 and 5 and row 2 is 1 and negative 1, is multiplied by matrix with 2 rows and 1 column, where row 1 is l and row 2 is s, equals a matrix with 2 rows and 1 column, where row 1 is 26 and row 2 is 2.

Answers

Using a system of equations, it is found that one large jar holds 6 ounces and one small jar holds 4 ounces.

What is a system of equations?

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are:

Variable l: Weight that a large jar holds.Variable s: Weight that a small jar holds.

One large jar and five small jars can hold 26 ounces of jam, hence:

l + 5s = 26, which is the first equation in matrix form.

Then:

l = 26 - 5s.

One large jar minus one small jar can hold 2 ounces of jam, hence:

l - s = 2, which is the second equation in matrix form:

Then:

l = 2 + s = 26 - 5s

2 + s = 26 - 5s

6s = 24

s = 4.

l = 26 - 5s = 6.

(1) Find the maximum number of visitors that can be invited to the event.

(2) Find the numbers of pieces of chicken to be received by the visitors who attended the event.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the highest or greatest or largest common factor is the product of the prime factors the numbers have in common :

540 ÷ 2 = 270

270 ÷ 2 = 135

135 ÷ 2 no

135 ÷ 3 = 45

45 ÷ 3 = 15

15 ÷ 3 = 5

5 ÷ 3 no

5 ÷ 5 = 1

540 = 2² × 3³ × 5¹

360 ÷ 2 = 180

180 ÷ 2 = 90

90 ÷ 2 = 45

45 ÷ 2 no

45 ÷ 3 = 15

15 ÷ 3 = 5

5 ÷ 3 no

5 ÷ 5 = 1

360 = 2³ × 3² × 5¹

so, the HCF = 2² × 3² × 5¹ = 4×9×5 = 180

(1)

to satisfy the condition max. 180 visitors can be invited.

(2)

540 / 180 = 3

so, every visitor can receive 3 pieces of chicken.

and 360 / 180 = 2 cups of drink.

Answer:

  m∠B ≈ 70.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Cosines relates three sides of a triangle and the angle opposite one of them.

Setup

The law of cosines tells you ...

  b² = a² +c² -2ac·cos(B)

Solving for angle B, we get ...

  B = arccos((a² +c² -b²)/(2ac))

where 'a' and 'c' are the sides adjacent to the angle of interest. We want angle B, so we can fill this formula as follows:

  B = arccos((13² +11² -14²)/(2·13·11))

Solution

  B = arccos(94/286)

  B ≈ 70.812°

__

Additional comment

Another angle can be found using the Law of Sines.

  A = arcsin(sin(70.812°)×13/14) ≈ 61.281°

Then angle C is ...

  C = 180° -70.812° -61.281° = 47.907°

Answers

f(x) = 2 * (1/2)^x

f(3) = 2 * (1/2)^3

f(3) = 2 * (1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2)

f(3) = 2 * 1/8

f(3) = 2/8

f(3) = 1/4

Hope this helps!

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = 2 \times ( { \frac{1}{2} })^{x} \\ \\ f(3) = 2 \times ({ \frac{1}{2}})^{3} \\ \\ = 2 \times \frac{1}{8} \\ \\ f(3) = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

Students are measuring various objects around the classroom. A pencil measures 8 ⅜ inches while a pair of scissors measures 5 ½ inches. How much longer is the pencil than the pair of scissors?

Answers

The pencil is longer than the pair of scissors by  [tex]2\frac{7}{8}[/tex] inches.

A pencil measures  [tex]8\frac{3}{8}[/tex]  inches.

A pair of scissors measures  [tex]5\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  inches.

We need to find the difference between the measures of a pencil and the scissors.

We see that the pencil measure is greater than the pair of scissors.

What is a mix fraction?

A fraction is a part of a whole number. It has two parts - numerator and denominator.

Example: If you cut a cake into three slices each slice is 1/3.

Where 1 = numerator and 3 = denominator.

Four types of fractions:

Unit fraction - when the numerator is 1.

Proper fraction - When the numerator is less than the denominator.

Improper fraction - When the numerator is greater than the denominator.

Mixed fraction - When the fraction contains a whole number with a proper fraction.

Example:  [tex]3\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

The given measure of the pen and the pair of scissors is in mix fraction.

The pencil measure is longer than the pair of scissors measure so,

We will subtract the measure of the pair of scissors from the measure of the pen.

We have,

       =  [tex]8\frac{3}{8} - 5\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

We can write the mix fraction into an improper fraction.

We multiply the denominator with the whole number and add this product with the numerator to get our numerator of the improper fraction. The denominator will remain the same as the mix fraction in the improper fraction.

So,

[tex]8\frac{3}{8}=\frac{(8\times8)+3}{8}=\frac{64 + 3}{8} = \frac{67}{8}\\ 5\frac{1}{2} =\frac{(5\times2)+1}{2}= \frac{(10+1)}{2} = \frac{11}{2}[/tex]

= 67/8 - 11/2

= (67-44) / 8

= 23 / 8

Writing in mix fraction.

=  [tex]2\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

Thus the pencil is longer than the pair of scissors by  [tex]2\frac{7}{8}[/tex] inches.
