Which Expression Is Equivalent To-21/4over -2/3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\frac{9}{4}/\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]-2\frac{1}{4}[/tex] is equilavalent to [tex]-\frac{9}{4\\}[/tex].

[tex]-\frac{2}{3}[/tex] can stay put.

The equation is division so neither answers #2 and #3 are the correct ones because when dividing fractions the second fraction has to be flipped in order to continue multiplying instead.

In addition, when two negatives are put together the answer must always be positive.  

Hence the answer is [tex]\frac{9}{4}/\frac{3}{2}[/tex].

A square and a regular heptagon are coplanar and share a common side $\overline{AD}$, as shown. What is the degree measure of exterior angle $BAC$? Express your answer as a common fraction.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\angle BAC = 141\frac{3}{7} ^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angle of a regular heptagon = = 900/7° = 128.57°

Therefore, angle DAB = 128.57°

The interior angle of the square = 90°

Therefore, angle DAC = 90°

Therefore, we have

angle DAB+ angle DAC + angle BAC = 360° (sum of angles at a point (A))

Angle BAC = 360° - angle DAB - angle DAC =  360° - 900/7° - 90° = 990/7°

Angle BAC = 141.43°

Expressing 141.43° as a common fraction gives;

[tex]141.43 ^{\circ}= \dfrac{990}{7} ^{\circ}=141\frac{3}{7} ^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\angle BAC = 141\frac{3}{7} ^{\circ}[/tex]

 The degree measure of exterior angle BAC is [tex]141\frac{3}{7}^\circ[/tex]

Given, A square and a regular heptagon are coplanar as shown in below figure attached.

We have find the exterior angle of BAC.

We know that, The formula that gives the interior angle measure for a regular polygon with any number of sides is,

[tex]\frac{180(n-2)}{n}[/tex]  where n is the number of sides.  

Since the heptagon has 7 no. of sides.

So regular heptagon's interior angle measures,

[tex]\frac{180(7-2)}{7}=128\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

Hence [tex]\angle A[/tex] will be[tex]128\frac{4}{7}[/tex] degrees.

We know that a square's interior angle is 90 degrees and a heptagon's interior angle is  128.57 degrees. We will subtract those from 360 degrees to find angle BAC.

[tex]\angle BAC = 360 - (\angle A + 90)\\[/tex]

[tex]\angle BAC = 360 - (128\frac{4}{7} + 90)\\\angle BAC=141\frac{3}{7} ^\circ[/tex]

Hence the degree measure of exterior angle BAC is [tex]141\frac{3}{7}^\circ[/tex].

Triangle ABC has vertices at A(2,5), B(4,11) and C(-1,6). Determine the angles in this triangle.
I need this solved using vectors please

Answers

Answer:

The angles are

∠A = 90°, ∠B = 26.56°, ∠C = 63.43°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the angles of a vector are given as follows;

[tex]cos\left ( \theta \right ) = \dfrac{\mathbf{a\cdot b}}{\left | \mathbf{a} \right |\left | \mathbf{b} \right |}[/tex]

Whereby the vertices are represented as

A= (2, 5, 0), B = (4, 11, 0), C = (-1, 6, 0),

AB =(4, 11, 0) - (2, 5, 0) = (2, 6, 0) ,  BA = (-2, -6, 0)

BC = (-1, 6, 0) - (4, 11, 0) = (-5, -5, 0), CB = (5, 5, 0)

AC = (-1, 6, 0) - (2, 5, 0) = (-3, 1, 0), CA = (3, -1, 0)

θ₁ = AB·AC

a·c = a₁c₁ + a₂c₂ + a₃c₃ = 2×(-3) + 6×1 = 0

Therefore, θ₁ = 90°

BA·BC = (-2)×(-5) + (-6)×(-5) = 40

[tex]{\left | \mathbf{}BA \right |\left | \mathbf{}BC \right |}[/tex] = (√((-2)² + (-6)²)) × (√((-5)² + (-5)²)) = 44.72

cos(θ₂) = 40/44.72 = 0.894

cos⁻¹(0.894) =θ₂= 26.56°

CA·CB = 5×3 + 5×(-1) = 10

[tex]{\left | \mathbf{}CA \right |\left | \mathbf{}CB \right |}[/tex] = (√((3)² + (-1)²)) × (√((5)² + (5)²)) = 22.36

10/22.36 = 0.447

cos(θ₃) = 0.447

θ₃ = cos⁻¹(0.447) = 63.43°.

First we need to find the circumference of the circle. We know that the radius is 4 and the formula is πd or 2πr

Leaving it in terms of pi, the circumference is 8π

Now we need to find the length of the arc.

Since the missing part of the circle is labeled with a right angle, we know that it's exactly 1/4 of the whole circle. That means the arc we need to find is 3/4 of the circumference.

3/4 of 8π is 6π

Starting at sea level, a submarine descended at a constant rate to a depth of −5/6 mile relative to sea level in 4 minutes. What was the submarine's depth relative to sea level after the first minute? Answer with a fraction :3

Answers

Answer:

-5/24 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The submarine descends at a rate of -5/6 miles every 4 minutes.

To find the depth of the submarine relative to sea level after the first minute, we have to multiply the rate of descent by he time spent (1 minute). That is:

[tex]\frac{\frac{-5}{6} }{4} * 1[/tex]

=> D = -5 / (6 * 4) = -5/24 miles

Therefore, the submarine's depth is -5/24 miles.

Answers

Answer:

Z = 0.87

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Sample 1:

n1 = 30

Mean, X = 2.36

Standard deviation, Ox = 0.96

Sample 2:

n2 = 60

Mean, Y = 2.19

Standard deviation, Oy = 0.66

The formula for test statistics for two population is;

[tex]Z = \frac{X-Y}{\sqrt{(\frac{Ox^2} {n_1} } +\frac{Oy^2}{n_2} )}}[/tex]

Substituting the values, we have;

[tex]Z = \frac{2.36-2.19}{\sqrt{(\frac{0.96^2} {30} +\frac{0.66^2}{60} )}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.17}{\sqrt{(\frac{0.9216} {30} +\frac{0.4356}{60} )}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.17}{\sqrt{(0.03072 +0.00726)}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.17}{\sqrt{0.03798}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.17}{0.19488}[/tex]

Z = 0.8723

The test statistics to 2 d.p is 0.87

Therefore, Z = 0.87

What is the general equation of a Straight line?

The general equation of a straight line is -

[y] = [m]x + [c]

where -

[m] is slope of line which tells the unit rate of change of [y] with respect to [x].

[c] is the y - intercept i.e. the point where the graph cuts the [y] axis.

y = mx also represents direct proportionality. We can write [m] as -

m = y/x

OR

y₁/x₁ = y₂/x₂

We have the following two functions -

y = -x

AND

y = x

Refer to the graphs attached for both the functions -

y = - x     and     y = x

The graphs as seen pass through the origin. One graph (y = x) has a slope of +1 while the other one (y = - x) has a slope of -1. The y - intercept of both the graphs will be 0.

m∠A is bounded by CA and A_F

m∠CED is bounded by CE and ED

∠DCE is bounded by CE and DE

∠C is bounded by CA and CF

Answer:

a = 11.71 ; b = 15.56

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we need two things.  The law of sines, and the sum of the interior angles of a triangle.

The law of sines is simply:

sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c

And the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180.

45 + 110 + <C = 180

<C = 25

We can find the sides by simply applying the law of sines.

length b

7/sin(25) = b/sin(110)

b = 7sin(110)/sin(25)

b = 15.56

length a

7/sin(25) = a/sin(45)

a = 7sin(45)/sin(25)

a = 11.71
